  1. * Adjusted for income level, CKD, COPD, smoking, obesity, use of antiplatelets/anticoagulation and use of statin. T2D: type 2 diabetes. DKA: diabetic ketoacidosis. DR: diabetic retinopathy. PDR: proliferative diabetic retinopathy. NPDR: nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy. PRP: panretional photocoagulation. SHR: subdistribution hazard ratio. CI: confidence interval.
