Abstract
Current diagnostic and treatment modalities target late stages of diabetic retinopathy, when retinopathy has already been established. Novel and more sensitive strategies are needed. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) permits non-invasive visualization of retinal microcirculation. Fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF21) plays an important role in glucose and lipid homeostasis. This study assesses early OCTA changes among children and adolescents with T1DM, compared to fundus photography and correlates them to diabetes-duration, glycemic control and FGF21; hence, determine their value in early detection of DR.
