Abstract

The aim was to investigate the long-term incidence of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), and progression and regression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and associated risk factors in young Danish patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus. In 1987-89, a pediatric cohort involving approximately 75 % of all children with Type 1 diabetes in Denmark <19 years of age was identified (n = 720). In 1995, 339 (47.1 %) were re-studied with retinopathy graded and all relevant diabetic parameters assessed. Of those, 185 (54.6 %) were evaluated again in 2011 for the same clinical parameters. All retinal images were graded using modified early treatment of DR study for 1995 and 2011. In 1995, mean age was 21.0 years and mean diabetes duration 13.5 years. The 16-year incidence of proliferative retinopathy, 2-step progression and 2-step regression of DR was 31.0, 64.4 and 0.0 %, respectively, while the incidence of DR was 95.1 %. In a multivariate logistic regression model, progression to PDR was significantly associated with 1995 HbA1c (OR 2.61 per 1 % increase, 95 % CI 1.85-3.68) and 1995 diastolic blood pressure (OR 1.79 per 10 mmHg increase, 95 % CI 1.04-3.07). Two-step progression of DR was associated with male gender (OR 2.37 vs. female, 95 % CI 1.07-5.27), 1995 HbA1c (OR 3.02 per 1 % increase, 95 % CI 2.04-4.48) and 1995 vibration perception threshold (OR 1.19 per 1 Volt increase, 95 % CI 1.02-1.40). In conclusion, one in three progressed to PDR and two in three had 2-step progression despite young age and increased awareness of the importance of metabolic control. After 30 years duration of diabetes, the presence of DR is almost universal.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 November 2013.
All research outputs
#4,026,584
of 25,081,505 outputs
Outputs from Acta Diabetologica
#132
of 981 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#35,506
of 223,037 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Acta Diabetologica
#2
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,081,505 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 83rd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 981 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 223,037 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 8 of them.
