To investigate the change points of HbA(1C) for detection of retinopathy in Chinese type 2 diabetic patients.
This cross-sectional investigation included 992 diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients, who received non-mydriatic digital fundus photography examination. Joinpoint regression software was adopted to identify the change points of HbA(1C) in association with retinopathy prevalence.
The mean age of all patients was 59.1 ± 8.4 years and the duration of diabetes was 5.5 (95% CI: 5.2-5.9) years. The prevalence of retinopathy was 10.3% in total, and 4.1%, 7.4% and 19.6% in patients with different diabetes duration of ≤ 5 years, 5-10 years and >10 years, respectively. The change point of HbA(1C) was 6.5% (95%CI 5.8-7.5%), at which retinopathy prevalence began to rise sharply. Furthermore, in subjects with diabetes duration ≤ 5 years, 5-10 years and >10 years, the change points of HbA(1C) were 8.1% (95%CI 7.9-8.3%), 6.1% (95%CI 5.7-6.8%), 5.6% (95%CI 5.1-8.1%) for detection of retinopathy, respectively.
The steepest increase in retinopathy prevalence occurred when HbA(1C) reached 6.5%. However, the duration of diabetes should be taken into concern, when using the change points of HbA(1C) for detection of retinopathy in diabetic patients.
探讨糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)切点用于中国 2 型糖尿病患者视网膜病变筛查的变化情况。
本横断面研究纳入了 992 例确诊的 2 型糖尿病患者,所有患者均接受免散瞳眼底数码照相检查。采用 Joinpoint 回归软件确定与视网膜病变患病率相关的 HbA1c 变化点。
所有患者的平均年龄为 59.1±8.4 岁,糖尿病病程为 5.5(95%CI:5.2-5.9)年。总的视网膜病变患病率为 10.3%,病程≤5 年、5-10 年和>10 年的患者视网膜病变患病率分别为 4.1%、7.4%和 19.6%。HbA1c 的变化点为 6.5%(95%CI 5.8-7.5%),在此切点之后,视网膜病变的患病率开始急剧上升。此外,病程≤5 年、5-10 年和>10 年的患者中,HbA1c 用于检测视网膜病变的切点分别为 8.1%(95%CI 7.9-8.3%)、6.1%(95%CI 5.7-6.8%)和 5.6%(95%CI 5.1-8.1%)。
当 HbA1c 达到 6.5%时,视网膜病变的患病率急剧上升。然而,在使用 HbA1c 变化点筛查糖尿病患者的视网膜病变时,还应考虑糖尿病病程。
