[The relation of diabetic retinopathy with blood-fat and lipid peroxidation]
Purpose:
To observe and inquire into the relation of diabetic retinopathy with lipid metabolism, and lipid peroxidation.
Methods:
The contents of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and lipid peroxide (LPO) of serum were examined and determined both in thirty patients with diabetes in early stage suffering from retinopathy and twenty four healthy people.
Results:
TG, TC, LDL-C and LPO in patients group were obviously higher than those in the control group, while HDL-C and SOD were lower than those in healthy control group.
Conclusion:
The disorder of lipid metabolism and the growing intensity of lipid peroxidation caused by diabetes may be one of the dangerous factors to bring about the retinopathy.
