Diabetic retinopathy(DR)is a specific microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus,which is mainly caused by arteriosclerosis and inflammation.In the study of risk factors of DR,it is found that controlling blood glucose in a good range can effectively reduce the prevalence of diabetic patients complicated with DR,and effectively improving dyslipidemia can slow down the progress of DR.Adipocytes can work together with macrophages to increase the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines,tumor necrosis factors and fibrinogen,and reduce the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as adiponectin,which further leads to metabolic disorders and the progress of DR.However,when a single blood lipid index of diabetic patients is normal,there will still be vascular-related complications,so the lipid-related composite index has attracted widespread attention.This article systematically reviews the research progress of triglyceride-glucose index,the triglycerides to high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio,the atherogenic index of plasma and the low density lipoprotein cholesterol to high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio and DR.
