Their mean age was 59.28 years and 75.27% were males. The mean duration of Type 1 and Type 2 variants of DM was 14.9 years and 10.9 years, respectively. Of the 182 patients, 67.58% had retinopathy changes. Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (DR) constituted 17.88% of the total patients with retinopathy. An increased presence of retinopathy in patients with an increased risk grade of DF was found significant by the Chi-square test (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.001).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n Our study found an increased presence of DR in a South Indian cohort with DF syndrome. The severity of retinopathy was greater in patients with higher grades of risk for DF. The establishment of an association between DR and DF syndrome will help in developing an integrated management strategy for these two debilitating consequences of diabetes.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijo.ijo_1000_17","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,26]],"date-time":"2018-03-26T01:46:39Z","timestamp":1522028799000},"page":"547-550","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Diabetic retinopathy in patients with diabetic foot syndrome in South India"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"66","author":[{"given":"Thoiba","family":"Karam","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Kasturba Medical College, Manipal University, Manipal, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yogish Subraya","family":"Kamath","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Kasturba Medical College, Manipal University, Manipal, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lavanya G","family":"Rao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Kasturba Medical College, Manipal University, Manipal, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Krishna Addoor","family":"Rao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Kasturba Medical College, Manipal University, Manipal, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shailaja Bhat","family":"Shenoy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Kasturba Medical College, Manipal University, Manipal, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sulatha V","family":"Bhandary","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Kasturba Medical College, Manipal University, Manipal, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-20251013","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1047","DOI":"10.2337\/diacare.27.5.1047","article-title":"Global prevalence of diabetes: Estimates for the year 2000 and projections for 2030","volume":"27","author":"Wild","year":"2004","journal-title":"Diabetes Care"},{"key":"R2-20251013","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2987","DOI":"10.2337\/db11-1625","article-title":"Improvements in the life expectancy of type 1 diabetes: The Pittsburgh epidemiology of diabetes complications study cohort","volume":"61","author":"Miller","year":"2012","journal-title":"Diabetes"},{"key":"R3-20251013","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1437","DOI":"10.1007\/s00125-016-3948-x","article-title":"Burden of diabetes in Australia: Life expectancy and disability-free life expectancy in adults with diabetes","volume":"59","author":"Huo","year":"2016","journal-title":"Diabetologia"},{"key":"R4-20251013","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1.e1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jaad.2013.06.055","article-title":"Diabetic foot ulcers: Part I.
