Retinal Vascular Changes in Pre-Diabetes and Prehypertension: New findings and their research and clinical implications

The clinical signs include generalized and focal arteriolar narrowing, arterio-venous nicking, increased retinal arteriolar light reflex (copper or silver wiring), flameand blot-shaped retinal hemorrhages, cotton wool spots, and, in severe cases, optic disc swelling (8,9). [...] it is unknown whethe...

Popis
Shrnutí:The clinical signs include generalized and focal arteriolar narrowing, arterio-venous nicking, increased retinal arteriolar light reflex (copper or silver wiring), flameand blot-shaped retinal hemorrhages, cotton wool spots, and, in severe cases, optic disc swelling (8,9). [...] it is unknown whether modification of risk factors (e.g., increased physical activity, reduction in weight) or institution of treatment (e.g., diabetes and antihypertensive medications) may improve retinal vascular measures and whether this is associated with lowered risks of diabetes, hypertension, and their complications.
