| Abstract |
We evaluated the risks of renal and cardiovascular complications, and mortality associated with lower extremity amputation (LEA) in patients with type 1 diabetes. We studied two cohorts of people with long standing type 1 diabetes: GENEDIAB (n = 456) and GENESIS (n = 611). Subsets of the cohorts (n = 260, n = 544) were followed for 9 and 5 years, respectively. Outcomes were the incidence of end stage renal disease (ESRD), myocardial infarction, stroke and mortality during follow-up. Analyses were performed in pooled cohorts. The prevalence of LEA at baseline was 9.3 % (n = 99). A positive history of LEA was associated with the baseline prevalence of established (OR 4.50, 95 % CI 2.33-8.91, p < 0.0001) and advanced diabetic nephropathy (OR 5.50, 95 % CI 2.89-10.78, p < 0.0001), ESRD (OR 2.86, 95 % CI 1.43-5.50, p = 0.004), myocardial infarction (OR 3.25, 95 % CI 1.68-6.15, p = 0.0006) and stroke (OR 3.88, 95 % CI 1.67-8.72, p = 0.002, adjusted for sex, age, and cohort membership). A positive history of LEA at baseline was associated with the incidence during follow-up of ESRD (HR 2.69, 95 % CI 1.17-6.20, p = 0.02), and myocardial infarction (HR 3.53, 95 % CI 1.79-6.97, p = 0.0001). History of LEA was also associated with increased risk for all-cause (HR 3.55, 95 % CI 2.05-6.16, p < 0.0001), cardiovascular (HR 3.30, 95 % CI 1.36-8.02, p = 0.008), infectious disease (HR 5.18, 95 % CI 1.13-23.84, p = 0.03) and other-cause mortality (HR 2.81, 95 % CI 1.09-7.26, p = 0.03). History of LEA at baseline was associated with a 40 % reduction in the duration of survival in the subset of patients who died during follow-up. Population attributable risk of the history of LEA at baseline for total mortality during follow-up was 0.31. Patients with LEA have a higher risk of ESRD, myocardial infarction and cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular mortality. Our results highlight the importance of LEA as a key-predictor for major vascular events and premature death in type 1 diabetic patients. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 February 2017.
All research outputs
#7,756,393
of 23,576,969 outputs
Outputs from Cardiovascular Diabetology
#563
of 1,467 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#125,277
of 396,683 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cardiovascular Diabetology
#15
of 27 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,576,969 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,467 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.1. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 57% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 396,683 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 27 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
