Serum apolipoprotein A1 and B are associated with 6-month persistent and incident diabetic macular oedema in type 2 diabetes

Aims To investigate the associations of baseline apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) and B (ApoB) levels with persistent and incident diabetic macular oedema (DMO) after 6 months of follow-up.Methods This is a prospective cohort study of patients aged ≥30 years with untreated diabetic retinopathy.

description Aims To investigate the associations of baseline apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) and B (ApoB) levels with persistent and incident diabetic macular oedema (DMO) after 6 months of follow-up.Methods This is a prospective cohort study of patients aged ≥30 years with untreated diabetic retinopathy. Examinations, fundus photography and spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) were assessed at baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months. Serum lipids and apolipoproteins were analysed at a pathology laboratory. DMO was confirmed using SD-OCT, classified as (1) incident DMO, (2) persistent DMO and (3) regressed DMO. Eye-specific data were used, controlling for covariates and cluster effect.Results We recruited 53 patients but only 38 completed the study [(62 eyes), 20 eyes (32.3%) with DMO]. Higher quartile of ApoA1 was associated with lower risk of persistent/incident DMO (p for trend 0.02), while higher ApoB/A1 was associated with higher risk of persistent/incident DMO (p for trend 0.02). Every 10 mg/dL increase in ApoA1 levels was associated with lower risk of persistent/incident DMO (OR 0.69; 95% CI 0.49 to 0.92; p value 0.016), whereas every 0.2 increase in ApoB/A1 was significantly associated with higher risk of persistent/incident DMO (OR 1.4; 95% CI 1.1 to 1.9; p value 0.013) at the end of the study.Conclusion Individuals with diabetes with higher ApoA1 had lower risk of persistent/incident DMO and those with higher ApoB/A1 had higher risk of persistent/incident DMO at the end of 6 months. These suggest that serum ApoA1 and ApoB/A1 levels may be important risk factors for DMO and could be predictive of persistent/incident DMO despite anti-vascular endothelial growth factor treatment.
