dc.description.abstract | A total number of 100 patients were examined over a period of one year to find out any correlation between diabetic maculopathy and diabetic nephropathy. Twenty-two belonged to insulin dependent diabetes mellitus group and 78 patients were in the non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus group who were suffering from diabetes over a period of 0-25 years and more. Another group comprising 6 patients were chosen from these 100 patients who were suffering from nephropathy diagnosed clinically and on pathological investigations. Background and proliferative--both types of diabetic retinopathy were found with increased incidence with the persistence of the disease in both types of diabetes mellitus. Nine patients had diabetic maculopathy, out of which 6 patients (66.66%) were suffering from diabetic nephropathy. Proliferative diabetic retinopathy is more common in insulin dependent diabetes mellitus than in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus of more than 25 years of duration. Maculopathy is more common in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and there is strong correlation between diabetic maculopathy and diabetic nephropathy. | en_US |
