Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the relationship between normal plasma fibrinogen(FIB)levels and disease duration in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:Clinical data and biochemical test results of 1 116 elderly subjects with T2DM admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of Shanghai Tianyou Hospital from January 2016 to October 2019 were retrospectively collected and analyzed.Subjects were classified into four groups based on the duration of DM: the Q1 group(n=276, < 2.0 years), the Q2 group(n=278, 2.0-7.9 years), the Q3 group(n=280, 8.0-13.9 years)and the Q4 group(n=282, ≥ 14.0 years). The correlation between FIB and the duration of DM was analyzed.Results:With the prolongation of DM duration, FIB levels increased significantly( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the duration of DM was positively correlated with FIB, age and serum creatinine( P<0.01). Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that the duration of DM was an independent factor for FIB( β=0.104, P<0.01). Logistic multiple regression analysis showed that after adjusting for sex, age, body mass index, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, serum creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, fasting plasma glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, smoking and drinking, the risk of hyperfibrinogenemia was 2.436 and 2.104 times higher, respectively, in Group Q4 and Group Q3 than in Group Q1(95% CI: 1.317-4.507, P<0.01; 95% CI: 1.144-3.871, P<0.05). With the third-quartile FIB(3.70 g/L)as the cut-off value, the optimal cut-off point of the DM course was 9.5 years as calculated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis of DM duration and hyperfibrinogenemia. Conclusions:The FIB level is positively correlated with DM duration in elderly patients with T2DM.
