Influence of cataract surgery and blood pressure changes caused by sodium restriction on retinal vascular diameter
PURPOSE To investigate the impact of cataract surgery and blood pressure changes induced by one week of sodium restriction on retinal vascular diameter. METHODS Fundus photographs of 200 patients were obtained before and one week after cataract surgery. For one week after admission, 100 patients received sodium restriction and 100 patients (ie, the control group) did not receive sodium restri...
متن کاملInterpreting vessel diameter changes in vascular headaches.
and B Sperling, merits attention because it describes the novel application of two non-invasive techniques to address the relationship between vessel dilatation and the pain of headache. Ten migraineurs with unilateral headache were subjected to transcranial doppler sonography (to measure blood velocity within the middle cerebral artery) and single photon emission computerized tomography (to me...
متن کاملassociation of retinal vascular diameter and vascular branching angle with diabetic retinopathy stage, a cross-sectional study
purpose : to determine the association between retinal vascular diameter and its branching angles with diabetic retinopathy (dr) stages in diabetic patients methods : a descriptive analytic cross-sectional study was conducted in 62 diabetic patients (120 eyes) referred to farabi eye hospital between june 2008 and december 2009. digital fundus photography pictures were imported into photoshop so...
متن کاملCoronary artery diameter can be assessed reliably with transthoracic echocardiography.
We studied whether diameters of coronary arteries can be measured accurately with the use of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). By knowing the anatomic diameter of the coronary artery together with coronary flow velocity it is possible to measure coronary flow volume more precisely by TTE. However, the suitability of TTE for measurement of diameters of all main epicardial coronary arteries h...
متن کاملBasigin can be a therapeutic target to restore the retinal vascular barrier function in the mouse model of diabetic retinopathy
Despite the advance in medical technology, diabetic retinopathy (DR) is still an intractable disease which leads to the damage of retinal cells and finally the visual loss. Impairment of retinal vascular barrier triggered by an admixture of multiple inflammatory cytokines is a core of pathophysiology of DR. Therefore, the molecules involved commonly in multiple cytokines-induced impairment of v...
