About

Objective: The main target of this study was to research the correlation between the pulmonary function and the circulatory parameters of retrobulbar blood vessels in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) without diabetic retinopathy (DR).

Method: T2DM patients without DR were choose to research the correlation between the pulmonary function and the circulatory parameters of retrobulbar blood vessels. The primary endpoints were the pulmonary function parameters; The secondary endpoints were the HbA1c, FPG, 2hPG, WC, and BMI. The tertiary endpoints were the blood-fat; In addition, the retrobulbar circulation in the retrobulbar blood vessels were evaluated using color doppler imaging (CDI).

Full description

Pulmonary function parameters (VC%, FVC%, FEV1%, PEF%, MVV%, TLC%, FEV1/FVC%, DLCO%, and DLCO/VA%); the retrobulbar circulation (PSV, EDV, RI);retrobulbar blood vessels (CRA, PCA, and OA);blood-fat(TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, and TG).

Pulmonary function was measured by spirometer which was provided by Jaska Corporation in Japan, model number: HI-101; The CDI recordings were taken using a Powervision SSA-380A (Toshiba, Japan) using a 7-MHz transducer.

Enrollment: 48 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 34 to 68 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
