Title

Skin intrinsic fluorescence scores are a predictor of all-cause mortality risk in type 1 diabetes: The Epidemiology of Diabetes Complications study.

Abstract

In individuals with long duration T1D, SIF scores adjusted for MDI predicted all-cause mortality, although this association was attenuated after adjustments. Given the nature of sampling and small number of events, our findings require replication.

This is an observational retrospective study of a convenience sample from the Epidemiology of Diabetes Complications (EDC) study. AGEs were measured with a SIF score between 2007 and 2014; vital status was assessed in 2020.

We assessed the association of skin intrinsic fluorescence (SIF) scores, as a measure of advanced glycation end-products (AGE), with all-cause mortality in type 1 diabetes (T1D).
