Abstract Background The potential preventive effect of fenofibrate on lower extremity amputation (LEA) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is not fully elucidated. Methods We selected adult patients ≥ 20 years of age with T2D from the Korean National Health Insurance Service Database (2009–2012). The fenofibrate users were matched in a 1:4 ratio with non-users using propensity scores (PS). The outcome variables were a composite of LEA and PAD and the individual components. The risks of outcomes were implemented as hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). For safety issues, the risks of acute kidney injury, rhabdomyolysis and resulting hospitalization were analyzed. Results A total of 114,920 patients was included in the analysis with a median follow-up duration of 7.6 years (22,984 and 91,936 patients for the fenofibrate user and non-user groups, respectively). After PS matching, both groups were well balanced. The fenofibrate group was associated with significantly lower risks of composite outcome of LEA and PAD (HR 0.81; 95% CI 0.70–0.94), LEA (HR 0.76; 95% CI 0.60–0.96), and PAD (HR 0.81; 95% CI 0.68–0.96). The risk of acute kidney injury, rhabdomyolysis, or hospitalization for these events showed no significant difference between the two groups. Subgroup analyses revealed consistent benefits across age groups, genders, and baseline lipid profiles. Conclusions This nationwide population-based retrospective observational study suggests that fenofibrate can prevent LEA and PAD in patients with T2D who are on statin therapy. |
