This study aimed to investigate the relationship of PNI with the prevalence and severity of DR in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Patients and Methods: This cross-sectional analysis enrolled 1023 individuals with T2DM hospitalized between 2017– 2020. PNI was calculated as 10 × serum albumin (g/l) + 0.005 × total lymphocyte count (cells/mL). DR severity was categorized as no, nonproliferative, and vision-threatened DR (VTDR) according to the modified Airlie House classification. Multivariate-adjusted odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) for the prevalent DR in the top (Q4) compared with the bottom quartile (Q1) of PNI levels were estimated by using logistic regression analyses.Results: PNI levels were significantly lower in individuals with VTDR than those with no and nonproliferative DR (both P < 0.001), and the proportions of individuals with DR were significantly decreased in the top quartile compared with the bottom quartile of PNI levels (P < 0.001). After adjustments for age, gender, DM duration, obesity-related risk factors and clinical biochemical parameters, the higher levels of PNI were significantly associated with a lower prevalence of DR (Q4 vs Q1: OR = 0.402, 95% CI: 0.250– 0.649, P < 0.001), with a 5.9% reduction in the prevalence of DR for a per-unit increment in the levels of PNI (OR = 0.941, 95% CI: 0.911– 0.972, P < 0.001). The association of PNI and obesity-related indexes (body mass index and waist circumference) with the severity of DR was independent of each other (P< 0.001).Conclusion: PNI was inversely and independently associated with the severity and prevalence of DR, which suggested that PNI could likely be used to predict DR prognosis in clinical practice.Keywords: diabetic retinopathy, type 2 diabetes mellitus, prognostic nutritional index, obesityYang LYu WPan WChen SYe XGu XHu XDove Medical Pressarticlediabetic retinopathytype 2 diabetes mellitusprognostic nutritional indexobesitySpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 14, Pp 839-846 (2021)
