Abstract

Objective

To estimate diabetic retinopathy (DR) prevalence in primary care scenarios in Mexico.

Materials and methods

We evaluated adult patients with type 2 diabetes with conventional care in primary care units. A mydriatic fundus examination was performed by an ophthalmologist with retinal photographs.

Results

Implementing a strategy for screening diabetic retinopathy in primary care settings in patients with type 2 diabetes in Mexico reported a prevalence of 33.6 %, comprising non-sight-threatening retinopathy at 24.2 %, and sight-threatening retinopathy at 9.4 %. The number needed to screen to detect DR obtained in the screened population was 3.

Conclusions

Our study reveals the need for DR screening strategies for its timely detection in primary care scenarios.

墨西哥糖尿病视网膜病变患病率：2型糖尿病患者筛查的主要公共卫生服务倡议结果

目的评估墨西哥初级保健方案中糖尿病视网膜病变（DR）的患病率。材料和方法我们评估了在初级保健病房接受常规护理的成年2型糖尿病患者。眼科医生用视网膜照片进行了眼底散瞳检查。结果墨西哥2型糖尿病患者在初级保健环境中实施糖尿病视网膜病变筛查策略的患病率为33.6%，和9.4%的视力威胁性视网膜病变。在筛查人群中检测DR所需的筛查数量为3。结论我们的研究揭示了在初级保健场景中及时检测DR筛查策略的必要性。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
