Abstrakt: | Aim: There are very few studies in which retinopathy is determined by fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) in prediabetics. We aimed to determine the frequency of retinopathy with a sensitive method and its relation to nephropathy in the prediabetic population. Materials and methods: We selected 30 impaired fasting glucose (IFG), 30 impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and 30 IFG + IGT prediabetic patients, who were admitted to Ege University Faculty of Medicine between January 2019 and September 2019. Demographic and comorbidity profiles and laboratory data were collected. Microalbumin/creatinine ratio in spot urine was examined. FFA was performed in 86 eligible patients. Results: Sixteen (18.6%) of the 86 patients included in our study had very mild non-proliferative retinopathy according to FFA findings. Nephropathy was detected in 13 (15.1%) of 86 patients. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) was found to be significantly associated with age, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, serum uric acid level, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and anti-hyperlipidemic drug use. A significant relationship was found between diabetic nephropathy and systolic blood pressure, serum uric acid levels, and eGFR levels. Conclusion: Our findings suggest the incidence of both retinopathy and nephropathy (18.6% and 15.1%, respectively) may be higher than expected in prediabetic patients. In addition, we describe that there may be a relationship between macrovascular complications and microvascular complications in patients with prediabetes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
