The association between retinal vessel abnormalities and H-type hypertension

Abstract Background This study aimed to investigate the relationship between H-type hypertension and retinal vessel abnormalities. Methods Hypertensive patients were retrospectively enrolled in this study. According plasma homocysteine (HCY), divided into isolated groups. The diameter of vessels retinopathy evaluated by fundus photography. differences abnormalities investigated univariate multivariate regression. Results A total 191 hypertensive included, which 86 with 105 hypertension. group had a higher ratio retinopathy( P = 0.004) degree arteriosclerosis ( 0.005) than group. CRAE (107.47 ± 13.99µ m vs. 113.49 11.72µ m, 0.002) AVR (0.55 0.06 0.58 0.06, 0.001) smaller those Multivariate analysis showed that after adjusting for age, sex, course diabetes, was an independent risk factor (OR, 2.259; 95%CI, 1.165—4.378; 0.016), (β=-5.669; -9.452—-1.886; 0.004), (β=-0.023; -0.039—-0.007; 0.005). Conclusions is closely related more Controlling may reduce small vascular damage.
