This study sought to investigate the associations between metabolic health status, obesity, and incidence of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).In this nationwide, population-based, longitudinal prospective cohort study conducted using the Korean National OBJECTIVE
The present study was carried out to investigate the association of fatty acid-binding protein 2 (FABP2) and fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene polymorphism with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) cases and controls.
METHODS
This study includes 122 POAG cases and 112 controls.
The associations of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) with intraocular pressure and primary open angle glaucoma (OAG) have been reported. This study aimed to determine whether a difference in association exists between OAG and metabolic risk factors according to obesity status among Korean adults. A
To investigate the association between nutrient intake and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in Koreans, a population-based, cross-sectional survey, the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, was analyzed. Glaucoma diagnosis was based on criteria established by the International
PRéCIS:: Apelin and ADMA concentrations, affecting the NO pathway, were different in the patient group compared to the control subjects. These two molecules may have potential effects in vascular pathologies and their possible role in predisposition to vascular comorbidities in OBJECTIVE
Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is associated with systemic metabolic and cardiovascular disorders, and both share common risk factors with erectile dysfunction (ED). However, few studies have investigated the association of ED with OAG. This study aimed to estimate the association of ED with
Prolonged exposure to stress and the resulting over-stimulation of the HPA system are often detrimental to the homeostasis of an organism. In fact, chronic stress is believed to affect the pathology of several disease states including coronary heart disease and hypertension, diabetes and obesity. In
OBJECTIVE
To determine the intraocular pressure (IOP) of the sample, to observe if the IOP was modified by different variables and to establish the prevalence of occult glaucoma and its types.
METHODS
455 volunteers without known ocular pathology were examined. Their medical history was obtained,
In the last few years, the possible link between obstructive sleep apnea (OSAS) and glaucoma, has attracted the interest of many scientists, especially in those forms of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and normal tension glaucoma (NTG), in which a progression of the disease occurs, even though
OBJECTIVE
To compare body mass index (BMI) of patients with open-angle glaucoma or normal-tension glaucoma with BMI in control subjects.
METHODS
BMI was calculated for 288 control subjects, 42 patients with open-angle glaucoma with treated intraocular pressure (IOP) higher than 21 mmHg, 87 patients
In 288 eyes of 114 low-tension glaucoma (LTG) patients, the mean, peak, trough and magnitude of the diurnal fluctuation of the intraocular pressure (IOP) determined over a period of 24 hours (diurnal IOP) were correlated with the IOPs recorded at the daytime office (office IOP), refraction, extent
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the relationships between open-angle glaucoma (OAG) and various anthropometric measurements.
METHODS
Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), a population-based cross-sectional study using a complex, stratified, multistage, probability-cluster
The authors present current opinions about influence of age and different cardiovascular and rheological risk factors on POAG and normal tension glaucoma (NTG), especially in age-related diseases: systemic hypertension and hypotension, nocturnal systemic hypotension, diabetes, obesity and high blood
OBJECTIVE
It is known that glaucoma is associated with elevated intraocular pressure and obesity, yet the precise etiology remains unclear. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a potential causality between the volume of retrobulbar adipose tissue and the level of intraocular
