“…In our study, 87.53% of the patients had at least one degenerative complication with retinopathy the most common degenerative disease (36.36%) followed by cardiovascular disease (25.45%). This figure is higher than what Razzouki [15] reported (33.84% retinopathy) and Assavedo (17.5%) in Parakou [16]. This frequency is similar to that reported by Djrolo [5] in Cotonou (36.6%).…”

“…In this study, we found strong evidence that both current value of FBS and rates of FBS change were associated with DR. Several earlier studies on type 2 DM patients showed that FBS level is significantly associated with DR 13 , 15 , 23 , 31 . But all these studies could not able to identify the effects of longitudinal FBS trajectory on the risk DR. By using joint modelling approach, we estimate the effects of longitudinal trajectory rate on the risk of DR.…”

“…Risk factors for DR among diabetes patients include sex, uncontrolled DM, longer duration of DM, presence of nephropathy and presence of hypertension, which have been documented in different studies 12 15 .…”

“…In this study, we observe strong evidence that both current value of FBS and rates of FBS change were associated with diabetic retinopathy. Several earlier studies on type 2 DM patients showed that fasting blood sugar level is significantly associated with diabetic retinopathy (14,16,26,33). But all these studies could not able to identify the effects of longitudinal FBS trajectory on the risk diabetic retinopathy.…”
