Abstract
Background
Time in range (TIR) is one of the basic indicators to assess glycemic control. In this study, the TIR of DPN patients was used as the observation index to further evaluate the correlation between TIR and DPN, so as to provide new ideas for preventing the occurrence of DPN and delaying its disease progression.
Methods
A total of 120 patients with T2DM (T2DM) who were hospitalized in the Endocrinology Department of our hospital from October 2018 to February 2020 were included and divided into two groups according to whether the nerve conduction velocity was normal or not, the diabetic peripheral neuropathy group (DPN) and the other groups. No diabetic peripheral neuropathy group (NDPN). According to the corresponding inclusion and exclusion criteria, the baseline data were recorded, and test indicators such as homocysteine and blood lipids were collected at the same time, and TIR was collected by a transient blood glucose meter. To explore the relationship between TIR and other indicators and peripheral neuropathy in T2DM.
Results
A total of 120 T2DM patients participated in the study, including 82 in the DPN group and 38 in the NDPN group. There were no statistically significant differences in basic indicators such as age, height, and weight between the two groups. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and homocysteine (Hcy) in DPN group were higher than those in NDPN group, while TIR and HDL-C were lower than those in NDPN group (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that HbA1c and Hcy were risk factors for DPN, and TIR and HDL-C were protective factors for DPN, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). The prediction results of TIR, Hcy, HDL-C, and HbA1c on diabetic peripheral neuropathy were analyzed by ROC curve, and the prediction results of the five variables were all statistically significant (P < 0.05) and have a better prediction effect.
Conclusion
(1) The results of TIR level suggest that the longer the blood sugar is in the good control range, the more beneficial it is to reduce the occurrence of DPN. (2) TIR and HDL-C are protective factors for DPN, and HbA1c and Hcy are risk factors for DPN. (3) The results of ROC curve analysis showed that TIR, Hcy, HbA1c, and HDL-C had a good predictive effect on the occurrence of DPN.
