Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the relationship between urinary creatinine excretion rate (CER), a muscle mass marker, and diabetic retinopathy in type 2 diabetes patients.
- Findings reveal that individuals with diabetic retinopathy had lower CER and BMI compared to those without the condition.
- The relationship between CER and diabetic retinopathy remains significant even after adjusting for other risk factors, indicating that lower muscle mass is independently associated with a higher prevalence of diabetic retinopathy, regardless of BMI.
