    Results of clinical and laboratory examinations of 161 diabetics are presented. The main factors or risk of nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy are the duration and degree of compensation of diabetes mellitus, development and stage of diabetic nephropathy, the latter factor replacing in experiments with simulation of diabetic retinopathy the level of arterial hypertension, and the blood serum content of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and ratio of total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. The factors of risk of proliferative diabetic retinopathy are duration and degree of compensation of diabetes mellitus, development and stage of diabetic retinopathy with this latter factor replacing in simulation of diabetic retinopathy the level of arterial hypertension, and the blood serum levels of triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fibrinogen, soluble fibrin-monomer complexes, as well as fibrinolytic activity.
