BACKGROUND
Retinal artery occlusion (RAO) and retinal vein occlusion (RVO) are common causes of severe visual loss and several atherothrombotic risk factors such as hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension have been associated with these ophthalmic lesions.
METHODS
In this
BACKGROUND
Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is one of the most common retinal vascular disorders affecting ocular vessels. Few studies, with conflicting results and conducted in limited study populations, have hypothesised the role of high levels of lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] in the occurrence of RVO. The
OBJECTIVE
Epidemiological studies have shown a significant correlation between increased levels of lipoprotein (a) and coronary and cerebral vascular diseases. Lipoprotein (a) presents a striking homology with plasminogen and may therefore complete with binding of plasminogen at fibrin and at the
OBJECTIVE
To examine whether the incidence of retinal vein occlusions (RVOs) is associated with estimated cerebrospinal fluid pressure (CSFP).
METHODS
The population-based Beijing Eye Study, which included 4439 subjects (age: 40 + years) in 2001, was repeated in 2011 with 2695 subjects participating
BACKGROUND
Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) tends to be a disease of older individuals, with some known major risk factors, and activated protein C resistance seems to be one of the causes in younger patients. In this study, we reviewed risk factors including activated protein C resistance in a
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to investigate the plasma homocysteine levels in patients with retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in order to reveal whether hyperhomocysteinemia was a risk factor for RVO.
METHODS
Thirty-three consecutive patients diagnosed to have RVO of any type and 25 age- and
The aim of the study was to evaluate the coagulant and fibrinolytic system, lipid economy and neurological condition in patients with various types of retinal vein occlusion. The material was 70 patients: 8 with diagnosed congestive venous retinopathy, 27 with ischaemic central retinal vein
OBJECTIVE
To determine if the paraoxonase 1 L55M and paraoxonase 1 Q192R gene polymorphisms have an effect on the risk of having a retinal vein occlusion (RVO).
METHODS
This case-control prospective study included 120 patients with RVO and 84 control subjects. All subjects were screened for age,
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether a newly identified thrombophilia factor, activated factor VII (FVIIa), is associated with retinal vein occlusion (RVO).
METHODS
54 consecutive cases with RVO seen between March and September 1999 were included in the study. 22 cases had central retinal vein occlusion
BACKGROUND
Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) tends to be a disease of older individuals, with some known major risk factors, and activated protein C resistance seems to be one of the causes in younger patients. In this study, we reviewed risk factors including activated protein C resistance in a
To investigate association between the development of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) and blood high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C).A retrospective, nationwide, population-based cohort study.This study was set in the Ninety-nine patients with retinal vein occlusion (40 with central, 59 with branch vein occlusion) were investigated for the prevalence of associated diseases for comparison with an age-matched control group. There was a significantly increased prevalence of hyperlipidaemia (p less than 0.001) and
OBJECTIVE
To report a patient with a branch retinal vein occlusion associated with lipemia retinalis.
METHODS
Observational case report.
METHODS
A 58-year-old woman presented with decreased vision and was found to have a branch retinal vein occlusion with massive lipid exudation in the setting of
BACKGROUND
To assess relationships between gender, ocular parameters and ocular diseases.
METHODS
The Beijing Eye Study is a population-based study including 4,439 Chinese. All participants underwent a detailed ophthalmic examination, anthropometric measurements and analytic blood
Hyperlipidemia is a known risk factor for atherosclerosis systemically. To determine whether it causes changes in retinal arterioles, a group of 26 patients with hyperlipidemia (serum cholesterol or triglycerides greater than 95th percentile for age) were compared with 22 "normal" patients
