Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 2

Abstract

Diabeticretinopathyis the most frequent microvascular complications of Diabetes mellitus and one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. DR has a complex process and various bone turnover markers play a key role in pathogenesis and progression of Diabetic Retinopathy. Previous studies have shown that bone turnover markers such as serum calcium, vitamin D, Phosphate, parathyroid hormone, alkaline phosphatase have significant effect on microvascular changes in Diabetic patients. Our study aims to summarize and evaluate the level of various bone turnover markers in DR and critically appraise the level and quality of existing studies.
