Background. This study is aimed at investigating the systemic risk factors of diabetic retinopathy and further establishing a risk prediction model for DR development in T2DM patients. Methods. This is a retrospective cohort study including 330 type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients who were followed up from December 2012 to November 2020. Multivariable cox regression analysis identifying factors associated with the hazard of developing diabetic retinopathy (DR) was used to construct the DR risk prediction model in the form of nomogram. Results. 50.6% of participants (mean age: 58.60 ± 10.55 ) were female, and mean duration of diabetes was 7.09 ± 5.36   years . After multivariate cox regression, the risk factors for developing DR were age (HR 1.068, 95%Cl 1.021-1.118, P = 0.005 ), diabetes duration (HR 1.094, 95%Cl 1.018-1.177, P = 0.015 ), HbA1c (HR 1.411, 95%Cl 1.113-1.788, P = 0.004 ), albuminuria (HR 6.908, 95%Cl 1.794-26.599, P = 0.005 ), and triglyceride (HR 1.554, 95%Cl 1.037-2.330, P = 0.033 ). The AUC values of the nomogram for predicting developing DR at 3-, 4-, and 5-year were 0.854, 0.845, and 0.798. Conclusion. Combining age, diabetes duration, HbA1c, albuminuria, and triglyceride, the nomogram model is effective for early recognition and intervention of individuals at high risk of DR development.

AbstractOver the last few decades, Mizoram has shown an increase in cases of type 2 diabetes mellitus; however, no in-depth scientific records are available to understand the occurrence of the disease. In this study, 500 patients and 500 healthy controls were recruited to understand the possible influence of their dietary and lifestyle habits in relation with type 2 diabetes mellitus. A multivariate analysis using Cox regression was carried out to find the influence of dietary and lifestyle factors, and an unpaired t test was performed to find the difference in the levels of biochemical tests. Out of 500 diabetic patients, 261 (52.3%) were males and 239 (47.7%) were females, and among the control group, 238 (47.7%) were males and 262 (52.3%) were females. Fermented pork fat, Sa-um (odds ratio (OR) 18.98), was observed to be a potential risk factor along with tuibur (OR 0.1243) for both males and females. Creatinine level was found to be differentially regulated between the male and female diabetic patients. This is the first report of fermented pork fat and tobacco (in a water form) to be the risk factors for diabetes. The unique traditional foods like Sa-um and local lifestyle habits like tuibur of the Mizo population may trigger the risk for the prevalence of the disease, and this may serve as a model to study other populations with similar traditional practices.

AbstractThis claims-based retrospective cohort study examined the prevalence and incremental impact of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis among children with type 2 diabetes mellitus in the United States. Although diagnoses of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis were not common among diabetic children, it was associated with significantly higher incremental healthcare cost and risk of hospitalization.
