For age, diabetes duration, FPG, HbA1c, HDL-c, LDL-c, SCr, TG and BUN the mean and standard deviations are presented, and comparisons were made by Wilcoxon rank sum test. Gender, rates of comorbidities and treatment of diabetes were compared by X2 test. T2DM, type 2 diabetes mellitus; NPDR, non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy; PDR, proliferative diabetic retinopathy; BMI, body mass index; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HbA1c, Hemoglobin A1c; HDL-c, High density lipoprotein- cholesterol; LDL-c, Low density lipoprotein- cholesterol; SCr, serum creatinine; TG, triglycerides; BUN, blood urea nitrogen; HTN, hypertension; OAD, oral antidiabetic drug; SII, subcutaneous insulin injection. Pa, P-value of control subjects versus T2DM samples. Pb, P-value of control subjects versus NPDR samples. Pc, P-value of control subjects versus PDR samples. Pd, P-value of T2DM samples versus NPDR samples. Pe, P-value of T2DM samples versus PDR samples. Pf, P-value of NPDR samples versus PDR samples.
