Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between subclinical hypothyroidism(SCH)and microvascular complications(diabetic nephrop-athy and diabetic retinopathy)in type 2 diabetic patients. Methods According to the condition of complicating with SCH,157 patients with type 2 diabetes were divided into SCH group(40 cases)and the euthyroid group(117 cases). The age,sex,duration of diabetes,smoking status,blood pressure,body mass index(BMI),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),blood lipid,renal function,thyroid function,urine albumin/urine creatinine, and fundus examination were analyzed and compared between the two groups. The relationship between SCH and microvascular complications in type 2 diabetic patients was explored. Results There was no significant difference of age,sex,duration of diabetes,smoking,blood pressure,BMI, HbA1c,blood lipid,or serum creatinine between the two groups. The incidence of diabetic retinopathy in SCH group was significantly higher than those in euthyriod group(32.5%vs 14.5%,P=0.044);however there was no difference in the incidence of diabetic nephropathy. After adjustment for potential confounding factors(age,sex,duration,blood pressure,BMI,HbA1c,diabetic nephropathy)by multivariate logistic regression analy-sis,SCH was still the risk factor of diabetic retinopathy(OR=2.210,95%CI 1.512-4.117,P=0.032)in type 2 diabetic patients. Conclusion SCH could be a risk factor of diabetic retinopathy in type 2 diabetic patients,and there was no significant effect on diabetic nephropathy.
