Correlation between Macular Changes in Exfoliation Syndrome and Exfoliative Glaucoma.
The aim of the study was to evaluate macular thickness and macular volume in unilateral and bilateral exfoliation syndrome and to compare them with exfoliative glaucoma and control eyes using optical coherence tomography. This prospective study included 114 subjects (228 eyes) divided into 4 groups according to the presence of exfoliation: 30 patients with unilateral syndrome, 24 patients with ...
متن کاملSerum Adenosine Deaminase Activity and C-Reactive Protein Levels in Patients with Brucellosis
Background and Objective: Brucellosis is a main transmittable zoonotic disease, which is endemic, and a common health burden in Iran. Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an essential enzyme which is involved in purine metabolism and its role in immune system is very important. The aim of this study was to determine serum changes of ADA and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in patients with brucellosi...
متن کاملLOXL1 gene sequence variants and vascular disease in exfoliation syndrome and exfoliative glaucoma.
PURPOSE To investigate whether the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the LOXL1 gene associated with exfoliation syndrome (XFS) and exfoliative glaucoma (XFG) are different in XFS/XFG patients with and without cardiovascular disease (CVD); and to compare the allele frequencies in XFS/XFG with those in ischemic cerebrovascular disease (stroke), in the Hungarian population. METHODS G153D...
متن کاملReproducibility of the water-drinking test in patients with exfoliation syndrome and exfoliative glaucoma.
PURPOSE To evaluate the reproducibility of intraocular pressure (IOP) peaks and fluctuations detected during the water-drinking test (WDT) in patients with exfoliation syndrome (XFS) and exfoliative glaucoma (XFG). METHODS This prospective study included 34 XFS and 30 XFG patients. Each patient was evaluated twice, with the two WDTs performed on a 30-day interval. We recorded IOP peak (highes...
متن کاملMaternal Serum C- Reactive Protein Concentration in Gestational Diabetes
OBJECTIVE: Low-grade systemic inflammation is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. C-Reactive Protein (CRP), an acute phase protein produced by hepatocytes, may be associated with diabetes. This study aimed to compare serum levels of CRP in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), impaired glucose tolerance test and control subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this ca...
