Résumé
Night blindness (NB), an important manifestation of VA deficiency, may be associated with the odds of diabetes. The aim of this study was to explore the probable association between NB history and diabetes in Chinese community-dwelling adults. This multi-center, cross-sectional study enrolled a total of 5664 participants aged 18-82 years from eight sites in China. Information on demographics and medical history was collected using a standardized questionnaire. Diabetes was diagnosed based on the oral glucose tolerance test or a self-reported history. NB history was ascertained by a face-to-face interview with reference to the recommendation by the World Health Organization. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between NB history and the odds of diabetes. A total of 5049 participants were finally included, with 252 ascertained with NB history and 1076 with diabetes. The mean age of included participants was 52.9 years, and the percentage of participants with NB history was significantly higher in participants with diabetes than those without (7.0% vs. 4.5%). The multivariable adjusted odds ratio for diabetes was 1.41 (95% confidence interval 1.06, 1.89) in participants with NB history compared with those without. Furthermore, mediation analysis showed that obesity, as assessed by waist-height ratio, partially mediated the relationship between NB history and increased odds of diabetes. The results suggest that NB history might be associated with increased odds of diabetes in Chinese community-dwelling adults.
