Brief Summary

As the duration of diabetes increased, the age, insulin therapy and HbA1c increased in both the elderly and non-elderly groups, whereas the urinary CPR and eGFR decreased. The duration of diabetes was significantly associated with the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy and neuropathy, but not with CVD, CHD or PAD in the elderly patients. The duration of diabetes showed a significant association with the prevalence of both diabetic micro- and macroangiopathy in the non-elderly patients.
