Diabetic retinopathy is the most common vision-threatening chronic microvascular, microangiopathy complication of diabetes militias. We have designed this cross sectional observational study to understand role serum lipids and random plasma glucose level with severity diabetic (DR). This was accomplished 210 patients that came us in clinic. There were two groups: Group A - All DM no apparent si...

To evaluate the usefulness of cytokine levels of peripheral blood in diabetic retinopathy (DR), demographic and biochemical parameters including low-density lipoprotein (LDL) diameter as well as cytokine profiles were analyzed in 74 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), with DR (n=46) or without DR (n=28). DM duration was longer in the patients with DR than without (p<0.001). Serum gluco...

OBJECTIVES To date, the relationship between C-reactive protein (CRP) level and diabetic retinopathy (DR) remains controversial. Therefore, a systematic review and meta-analysis was used to reveal the potential relationship between CRP level and DR. METHODS A systematic search of PubMed, Embase.com, and Web of Science was performed to identify all comparative studies that compared the CRP lev...

PURPOSE To evaluate the prevalence of anterior type diabetic retinopathy (DR) using ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography and to identify the factors associated with anterior type DR incidence. METHODS A retrospective case review was used in this study. Patients with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) underwent examination by ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography, and were clas...

Purpose To compare the diagnostic properties of a nonmydriatic 200° ultra-widefield scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) versus onsite mydriatic ophthalmologic examination for diabetic retinopathy. Methods A consecutive series of 51 eyes of 51 patients with different levels of diabetic retinopathy (DR) was examined. Grading of diabetic retinopathy and macular edema obtained on stereoscopic dilat...

Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is the damage caused to the retina of the eye due the complications of diabetes. There are a large number of people, who are suffering from Diabetic Retinopathy that leads to blurring of vision or even blindness, if not treated at an early stage. Hence it is important to detect DR at an earlier stage and provide treatment otherwise it may lead to blurring of vision or ...

This study aims to investigate potential diabetic retinopathy (DR) risk factors by evaluating the circulating levels of pentosidine, soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-product (sRAGE), advanced oxidation protein product (AOPP) as well as glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities in DR patients. A total of 235 healthy controls, 171 type 2 diabetic without re...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess mortality and causes of death in subjects with visual impairment caused by diabetic retinopathy (DR). Only limited data are available concerning the mortality of subjects with DR, and to our knowledge, no data so far have been published on the mortality of subjects with visual impairment caused by DR. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We identified 34 m...

Background: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the leading causes vision loss which occurs as a result microvascular complication diabetes. The aim study to assess prevalence and factors associated with development diabetic among patients attending eye camps in hospital northern Bangladesh. Methods: This was population-based cross-sectional study, conducted through five comprehensive at associ...

Recently, diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening utilizing ultra-wide optical coherence tomography angiography (UW-OCTA) has been used in clinical practices to detect signs of early DR. However, developing a deep learning-based DR analysis system using UW-OCTA images is not trivial due the difficulty data collection and absence public datasets. By realistic constraints, model trained on small data...
