To examine the relationship between the presence and severity of retinopathy in women with diabetes mellitus and sleep quality assessed using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).
Among 90 female patients with type 2 diabetes, 30 patients without retinopathy were classified into Group 1, 30 patients with nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy as Group 2, and 30 patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy as Group 3. People who had a known sleep problem, had a history of using medication other than sleeping pills that would affect sleep, had lower or upper respiratory tract disease, had history of previous surgery, or were unable to answer the survey questions appropriately were excluded from the study.
The mean age was 52.6 ± 6.18 years in Group 1, 55.15 ± 8.15 years in Group 2, and 60.35 ± 5.93 years in Group 3. While no statistical difference was observed between Groups 1 and 2 ( = 0.27), a statistical difference was observed between both Groups 1 and 3 ( = 0.01) and Groups 2 and 3 ( = 0.02). PSQI scores were found to be 5.10 ± 1.07 in Group 1, 7.30 ± 2.34 in Group 2, and 6.70 ± 1.21 in Group 3. In terms of these scores, there was a statistical difference between Group 1 and both Group 2 ( = 0.01) and Group 3 ( = 0.01), while no difference was observed between Groups 2 and 3 ( = 0.31).
Although the presence of retinopathy significantly impairs sleep quality in diabeticwomen, no relationship was found between the severity of retinopathy and impaired sleep quality.
研究女性糖尿病患者视网膜病变的存在及其严重程度与匹兹堡睡眠质量指数（PSQI）评估的睡眠质量之间的关系。
在 90 名 2 型糖尿病女性患者中，将无视网膜病变的 30 名患者分为第 1 组，30 名非增生性糖尿病视网膜病变患者分为第 2 组，30 名增生性糖尿病视网膜病变患者分为第 3 组。患有已知睡眠问题、使用过除安眠药以外影响睡眠的药物、患有下呼吸道或上呼吸道疾病、有既往手术史或无法正确回答调查问题的患者被排除在研究之外。
第 1 组的平均年龄为 52.6 ± 6.18 岁，第 2 组为 55.15 ± 8.15 岁，第 3 组为 60.35 ± 5.93 岁。第 1 组和第 2 组之间（ = 0.27）无统计学差异，但第 1 组和第 3 组（ = 0.01）和第 2 组和第 3 组（ = 0.02）之间有统计学差异。第 1 组的 PSQI 评分为 5.10 ± 1.07，第 2 组为 7.30 ± 2.34，第 3 组为 6.70 ± 1.21。就这些评分而言，第 1 组与第 2 组（ = 0.01）和第 3 组（ = 0.01）之间存在统计学差异，而第 2 组和第 3 组之间（ = 0.31）无差异。
尽管视网膜病变的存在显著影响糖尿病女性的睡眠质量，但视网膜病变的严重程度与睡眠质量受损之间没有关系。
