Non-diabetic Retinal Vascular Disease

چکیده
Retinal anatomy [1] The retina is a many layered structure. From the inner (vitreous) surface to the choroid these are the internal limiting membrane, nerve fibre layer, ganglion cell layer, inner plexiform layer, inner nuclear layer, outer plexiform layer, outer nuclear layer, external limiting membrane, rod and cone inner and outer segments and a single layer of cells called the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).

Predominant cone photoreceptor dysfunction in a hyperglycaemic model of non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
Approximately 2.5 million people worldwide are clinically blind because of diabetic retinopathy. In the non-proliferative stage, the pathophysiology of this ocular manifestation of diabetes presents as morphological and functional disruption of the retinal vasculature, and dysfunction of retinal neurons. However, it is uncertain whether the vascular and neuronal changes are interdependent or in...
متن کاملP 339 EOG changes in non-proliferative and proliferative diabetic retinopathy
Puroose: Proliferative diabetic retinopathy is assumed to develop because vasogenic factors are released from retinal areas that are ischaemic and hypoxic secondary to occlusion of the retinal vascular bed. It has been propclsed that vascular occlusion in diabetic retinopethy may be due to the deposition of periodic acid Schiff positive glycoprotein compounds in the retinal vascular walls. but ...

BACKGROUND Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is one of the most common human genetic abnormalities, with a high prevalence in Sardinia, Italy. Evidence indicates that G6PD-deficient patients are protected against vascular disease. Little is known about the relationship between G6PD deficiency and diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this study was to compare G6PD deficiency preva...
متن کاملInflammation and diabetic retinal microvascular complications
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most common complications of diabetes and is a leading cause of blindness in people of the working age in Western countries. A major pathology of DR is microvascular complications such as non-perfused vessels, microaneurysms, dot/blot hemorrhages, cotton-wool spots, venous beading, vascular loops, vascular leakage and neovascularization. Multiple mechanis...
متن کاملLeukocytes in diabetic retinopathy.
Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most common diabetic complications, and is a major cause of new blindness in the working-age population of developed countries. Progression of vascular abnormalities, including the selective loss of pericytes, formation of acellular capillaries, thickening of the basement membrane, and increased vascular permeability characterizes early nonproliferative diabet...
متن کاملNon-diabetic and non-oculotraumatic vitreous haemorrhage treated by pars plana vitrectomy.
BACKGROUND Until the advent of pars plana vitrectomy, no efficient treatment for non-resorbing vitreous haemorrhage was at hand. Especially if the cause of the vitreous haemorrhage was not known, such as in most cases of non-diabetic and non-oculotraumatic vitreous haemorrhage, a lot of time often was lost by waiting for the resorption, because of the lack of any effective treatment modality. ...
