Associations of Glycemic Control and Diabetes Duration With Dupuytren Disease in Men and Women With Type 1 and 2 Diabetes

Key Points

Dupuytren disease risk increases with longer diabetes duration, particularly for type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
A trend indicates that higher HbA1c levels may elevate Dupuytren disease risk in type 1 diabetes.
Assessment reveals that a higher body mass index correlates with a lower risk of Dupuytren disease in type 2 diabetes patients.
Findings highlight the importance of managing diabetes duration and glycemic control to mitigate Dupuytren disease risk.

Abstract

Diabetes duration seems to be a strong and independent risk factor for DD in T1D and T2D. Although a trend toward higher DD risk with elevated HbA1c was observed in T1D, no interaction with diabetes duration was found. A higher body mass index was associated with a lower risk of DD in individuals with T2D.
