[Diabetes self-management and its association with diabetic retinopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes].
TL;DR: Investigation of the association of diabetic self-management with the risk of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Beijing found increased risk of PDR was associated with longer duration of diabetes (more than 10 years) and higher HbA1c level.
