Background and Objective: Nowadays, diabetes is one of the main causes of blindness in the world. Identification and differentiation of risk factors for diabetic retinopathy depending on the type of diabetes gives us the opportunity to fight and prevent this complication. Aim of the research: To assess differences in the risk factors for diabetic retinopathy in type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in Warmia and Mazury Region, Poland. Materials and Methods: Risk factors for diabetic retinopathy (DR) were assessed on the basis of an original questionnaire, which included: personal data, clinical history of diabetes and eye disease. Elements of clinical examination: blood pressure, BMI, waist circumference. Indicators of diabetes metabolic control: mean glycemia, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), total cholesterol and triglycerides, creatinine, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), albumin–creatinine ratio in urine. Results: The study group included 315 (26%) patients with DM1 and 894 (74%) patients with DM2. Risk factors were estimated on the basis of logistic regression and verified with Student’s t-test. Statistically significant dependencies were found in both groups between the occurrence of diabetic retinopathy and diabetes duration, HbA1c, triglyceride concentrations, indicators of kidney function and cigarette smoking status. In the DM2 group, the development of DR was significantly influenced by the implemented models of diabetic treatment. Conclusions: In the whole study group, the risk of DR was associated with the duration of diabetes, HbA1c, triglyceride concentrations and smoking. In DM1 patients, the risk of DR was associated with diabetic kidney disease in the G1A1/A2 stage of chronic kidney disease, and in DM2 patients with the G2 stage of chronic kidney disease. An important risk factor for DR in DM2 patients was associated with late introduction of insulin therapy.

Background and Objectives: The global epidemic of diabetes, especially type 2 (DM2), is related to lifestyle changes, obesity, and the process of population aging. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most serious complication of the eye caused by diabetes. The aim of this research was to assess the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy in type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in north-east Poland. Materials and Methods: The eye fundus was assessed on the basis of two-field 50 degrees color fundus photographs that showed the optic nerve and macula in the center after the pupil was dilated with 1% tropicamide. Results: The experimental group included 315 (26%) patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) and 894 (74%) patients with DM2. DM1 patients were diagnosed with DR in 32.58% of cases, with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) in 24.44% of cases, proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) in 1.59% of cases, diabetic macular edema (DME) in 5.40% of cases, and PDR with DME in 0.95% of cases. DR was found in DM2 patients in 23.04% of cases, NPDR in 17.11% of cases, PDR in 1.01% of cases, DME in 4.81% of cases, and PDR with DME in 0.11% of cases. Conclusions: The presented study is the first Polish study on the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy presenting a large group of patients, and its results could be extrapolated to the whole country. Diabetic retinopathy was found in 25.48% of patients in the whole experimental group. The above results place Poland within the European average, indicating the quality of diabetic care offered in Poland, based on the number of observed complications.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of microalbuminuria on macular thickness in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus with no or mild diabetic retinopathy and to investigate the relationship between macular thickness and metabolic parameters. Materials and methods: Fifty eight eyes of 58 patients without diabetic retinopathy (group 1) in microalbuminuria stage, 42 eyes of 42 patients with mild diabetic retinopathy (group 2) in microalbuminuria stage, and 50 eyes of 50 patients without diabetic retinopathy and microalbuminuria (group 3) were included in this study. After detailed ophthalmologic examination, all patients underwent spectral domain-optical coherence tomography measurements. Macular thickness was noted from nine different areas (fovea, four parafoveal, and four perifoveal areas) and compared between groups. The correlations between macular thickness and age, duration of diabetes mellitus, microalbuminuria, serum urea, creatinine, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAIc), albumin, sodium (Na), and urinary Na were evaluated. Results: The mean age was 53.29 ± 6.49 in group 1, 55.86 ± 6.97 in group 2, and 52.98 ± 5.66 years in group 3 (p = 0.06). The macular thickness values of superior, inferior, and nasal parafoveal areas were significantly different between groups (p = 0.001, p = 0.006, and p = 0.03, respectively). Bonferroni post test revealed that this difference originated from the difference between group 2 and 3 (p < 0.05 for all values). There were significant negative correlations between the macular thickness values of parafoveal areas and serum urea, HbA1c, albumin, microalbuminuria levels (p < 0.05 for all values). Conclusion: In this study, a significantly decreased parafoveal macular thickness was measured in patients with mild diabetic retinopathy and microalbuminuria compared to patients without diabetic retinopathy and microalbuminuria.
