Early Retinal Microvascular Changes Assessed with Swept-Source OCT Angiography in Type 1 Diabetes Patients without Retinopathy

Résumé

Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease that can lead to vision loss when diabetic retinopathy develops. Retinal microvascular alterations occur before the appearance of clinical signs on a fundus examination. This study aimed to analyze retinal vascular parameters on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) in patients with type 1 diabetes without diabetic retinopathy in comparison with non-diabetic volunteers. This cross-sectional study was conducted at Dijon University Hospital from 2018 to 2020. Vascular densities were measured using macular OCT-A. In total, 98 diabetes patients and 71 non-diabetic volunteers were enrolled. A statistically significant lower vascular density of the inner circle was found in the superficial capillary plexus (SCP) in the diabetes group (p < 0.01). There was a statistically significant correlation between central vascular density in the deep capillary plexus (DCP) and total daily insulin intake (p = 0.042); furthermore, use of the FreeStyle Libre (FSL) device was associated with higher vascular densities in both the SCP (p = 0.034 for outer circle density) and DCP (p < 0.01 for inner circle density and p = 0.023 for outer circle density). Retinal microvascularization was early-altered in type 1 diabetes, and using the FSL device seemed to preserve retinal microvascularization.
