| Popis: | Purpose: The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence of visual impairment and retinopathy and to investigate risk factors for retinopathy in persons with diabetes, screen-detected diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance and normal glucose tolerance in a subpopulation of the HUNT study. Methods: We used a sample (n = 163) from a population-based screening survey of hyperglycaemia, undertaken in 2004–2005 in Verdal, Norway. Baseline information was accessible through the second Nord-Trondelag Health Study (HUNT2), 1995–97. Data collection was made in 2005 and included patient history, refraction, visual acuity, cataract assessment and single-field, nonmydriatic retinal photography. Retinal photographs were graded independently by two graders blinded to patient information. Data were analysed with standard statistical methods, and p |
