Logistic regression analysis of independent variables affecting the presence of PDR in diabetic patients
| Variables | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Dependent | Independent | Adjusted OR (95% CI) | P value |
| PDR | NC parameters | ||
| Number | 0.26 (0.090-0.77) | 0.02 | |
| Length | 0.17 (0.047-0.59) | 0.005 | |
| Width | 0.26 (0.080-0.82) | 0.02 | |
| Turbidity | 0.30 (0.11-0.79) | 0.02 | |
OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; PDR, proliferative diabetic retinopathy; NC, nailfold capillary. Differences were considered significant at the P < 0.05 level. All NC parameters were adjusted by age, sex, HT, DL, SBP, eGFR, and HbA1c
