Abstract

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease with significant morbidities and increased mortality associated with chronic complications. The diabetic complication in young-onset diabetes associated with significant psychological stress to the patient and also to the caregiver. The diabetic microvascular complication can be prevented or delayed by optimum control of glycemia and another risk factor.

OBJECTIVES: To study the prevalence of microvascular complications (retinopathy or nephropathy or their combination) in patients with young diabetes.

PARTICIPANTS: Patient attending Endocrine OPD with diabetes mellitus diagnosed at age 25 years or earlier.

STUDY DESIGN: Hospital-based retrospective study.

METHODS: Patient recruited for the study after informed consent. Record reviewed for diabetic complications. Patients were classified for the type of diabetes based on clinical criteria based on ICMR guidelines. Diabetic microvascular complications i.e. Diabetic Retinopathy and Diabetic Nephropathy were defined according to ICMR/ADA guidelines. A total of 309 patients were recruited for the study fulfilling inclusion criteria from September 2018 to August 2020. The data obtained was analyzed by using the latest SPSS v.27 statistical software.

RESULT: Out of 310 recruited patients 57% were female and 47% were male with a mean age of 20years. The majority of patients were T1DM and T2DM i.e. 70% and 17% respectively. Mean Hba1c was 10%. The prevalence of diabetic Retinopathy and Nephropathy was 8.5% and 5% respectively.

CONCLUSION: The etiology of diabetes in young adults was heterogeneous, with T1DM and T2DM being most common. Prevalence of Microvascular complications in young Diabetic indicates the need for optimum glycemic control to prevent or delay microvascular complications.

INTERPRETATION: Diabetic Retinopathy is more common than Diabetic nephropathy with background suboptimal glycemic control in the studied population.

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease with significant morbidities and increased mortality associated with chronic complication. Diabetic complication in young onset diabetes associated with significant psychological stress to patient and also to care giver. Diabetic microvascular complication can be prevented or delayed by optimum control of glycaemia and other risk factor.

OBJECTIVES: To study the prevalence of microvascular complications (retinopathy or nephropathy or their combination) in patients with young diabetes.
