Abstract

To investigate the relationship between glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level and diabetic retinopathy (DR), we selected 260 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College from January to December in 2016.These patients were examined by HbA1c and other biochemical indexes, fundus examination and fundus fluorescein angiography analysis. Experiments show that compared with the diabetic group with no obvious retinopathy, there was a high level of glycosylated hemoglobin in both the non proliferative DR Group and the proliferative DR Group, and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). So we can draw a conclusion that HbA1c level is positively correlated with DR patients, and HbA1c assay can be an important index for monitoring DR.
