We tried to define the association of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with and without sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2I) use and incident cataract using nationwide data in Taiwan.
In a Cox proportional hazards regression model, we estimated the hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). We considered risk factors for variables of sex, age, comorbidities and medications that we adjusted in multivariable Cox model.
We identified 20,768 T2DM patients in this study; 10,384 patients in the SGLT2I cohort, and 10,384 controls in the non-SGLT2I cohort. Compared with the T2DM patients without SGLT2I, T2DM patients using SGLT2I had a 2.04-fold increased risk of cataract, after adjustment by sex, age, comorbidities and medications.
Increased risk of cataract among diabetic patients who took SGLT2I was found in this study.
我们试图利用台湾的全国性数据,定义使用和不使用钠-葡萄糖共转运蛋白 2 抑制剂(SGLT2I)的 2 型糖尿病(T2DM)患者与白内障发病的相关性。
在 Cox 比例风险回归模型中,我们估计了风险比(HR)和 95%置信区间(95%CI)。我们考虑了性别、年龄、合并症和药物等变量的风险因素,并在多变量 Cox 模型中进行了调整。
本研究共纳入 20768 例 T2DM 患者;SGLT2I 组 10384 例,非 SGLT2I 组 10384 例。与未使用 SGLT2I 的 T2DM 患者相比,调整性别、年龄、合并症和药物后,使用 SGLT2I 的 T2DM 患者发生白内障的风险增加了 2.04 倍。
本研究发现,使用 SGLT2I 的糖尿病患者发生白内障的风险增加。
