- Brief Summary
Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases caused by multiple etiologies and characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. It seriously harms human health and has become a global public health challenge. Diabetes mellitus is present in 5% to 25% of patients undergoing spine surgery, and the prevalence has been increasing over the past decade. It is worth noting that spinal surgery for patients with diabetes has significant risks, mainly manifested in the significant increase of postoperative complications such as wound infection, delayed healing and wound hematoma, which seriously affect the long-term prognosis of patients' quality of life, spinal function and stability of internal fixation. Research shows that hypoglycemic drugs can not only control blood glucose level, but also affect the stability of nerve, bone and internal fixation, which is expected to improve the prognosis of spinal surgery in patients with diabetes. Metformin and sitagliptin are widely used hypoglycemic drugs. Studies have shown that metformin can increase bone mineral density in patients and have a protective effect on bones. Sitagliptin induces macrophage polarization of the M2 phenotype and reduces the impaired behavior of osteoblasts on titanium (TI) implants in a dose-dependent manner, thereby enhancing the bone regeneration required for successful orthopedic and dental implants in diabetic patients. However, the effects of these two drugs on the long-term prognosis of diabetic patients after spinal surgery, such as quality of life, spinal function and stability of internal fixation, have not been reported.
This investigation is a prospectie cohort study. The purpose of this study is to determine whether metformin and sitagliptin are associated with patient-reported outcomes and internal fixation stability at one year following elective spine surgery. Providers may use this information to help patients who need elective spinal surgery choose hypoglycemic drugs and to counsel patients with diabetes on expectations following spine surgery.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Preoperative Quality of Life Score before surgery Preoperative quality of life score will be performed using a Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36). SF-36 is a concise health questionnaire. It is widely used to measure the quality of life in the general population, evaluate the efficacy of clinical trials, and evaluate health policy. As a concise health questionnaire, SF-36 comprehensively summarized the quality of life of the respondents from nine aspects: physiological function, physical function, physical pain, general health, energy, social function, emotional function, mental health and health transition.
Preoperative Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before surgery The VAS is used to assess pain. The basic method is to use a swimming scale about 10cm long, with one side marked with 10 scales, both ends of which are "0" and "10" respectively. 0 indicates no pain, and 10 indicates the most severe pain that is unbearable.
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at 3 Months after Surgery at 3 months after surgery The VAS is used to assess pain. The basic method is to use a swimming scale about 10cm long, with one side marked with 10 scales, both ends of which are "0" and "10" respectively. 0 indicates no pain, and 10 indicates the most severe pain that is unbearable.
Quality of Life Score at 3 Months after Surgery at 3 months after surgery Quality of life score at 3 months after surgery will be performed using a Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36). SF-36 is a concise health questionnaire. It is widely used to measure the quality of life in the general population, evaluate the efficacy of clinical trials, and evaluate health policy. As a concise health questionnaire, SF-36 comprehensively summarized the quality of life of the respondents from nine aspects: physiological function, physical function, physical pain, general health, energy, social function, emotional function, mental health and health transition.
Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) or Neck Disability Index (NDI) at 6 Months after Surgery at 6 months after surgery The ODI and NDI are disease-specific questionnaires designed to gauge disability from the low back (ODI) or neck (NDI) and are scored on a 0-to-100-point scale. Values of \>40 points indicate severe disability.
Quality of Life Score at 1 Year after Surgery at 1 year after surgery. Quality of life score at 1 year after surgery will be performed using a Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36). SF-36 is a concise health questionnaire. It is widely used to measure the quality of life in the general population, evaluate the efficacy of clinical trials, and evaluate health policy.
