Relationship between retinal structures and retinal vessel caliber in normal adolescents.
PURPOSE To describe the normal physiological relationship between retinal arteriolar and venular caliber and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), macular, and optic nerve head parameters. METHODS The Sydney Childhood Eye Study assessed 2038 adolescents aged 12 years. Retinal vessel calibers were measured from digital fundus photographs using standardized protocols. Optical coherence tomography m...
متن کاملPediatric head injury and concussion.
Children with head injuries frequently present to emergency departments. Even though most of these children have minor injuries, head injury is the most common cause of traumatic deaths in pediatric patients. The pediatric GCS and decision rules for obtaining head CT imaging help the provider evaluate head-injured infants and children. The provider must be vigilant to diagnose those who have li...
متن کاملAssociation of retinal vessel caliber to optic disc and cup diameters.
PURPOSE To investigate whether optic disc size is related to retinal venule and arteriole diameters. METHODS The population of Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, aged 43 to 86 years were invited to participate in a baseline examination from 1988 to 1990. During this examination, photographs, centered on the optic discs, were taken after pupil dilation. Optic discs and cups were measured from stereoscopic...
متن کاملAssociation of retinal vessel caliber and visual field defects in glaucoma.
PURPOSE This study evaluates the asymmetry of peripapillary retinal vessel caliber between inferior and superior hemispheres in eyes with visual field defects predominantly in one hemifield. DESIGN Observational case series. METHODS In a retrospective study, 64 eyes of 64 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma who had a marked difference in visual field defects between hemifields and who...
متن کاملAssociation between retinal vessel caliber and arterial stiffness in a population comprised of normotensive to early-stage hypertensive individuals.
BACKGROUND Although impairment of the micro- and macrocirculation is considered inherent to sustained hypertension, there is a substantial lack of studies investigating whether an association exists between micro- and macrovascular damage, especially in early-stage hypertension. METHODS We studied a meticulously selected population, free of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, of 223 individu...
