Retinopathy as an Independent Indicator of All-Causes Mortality
International Journal of Epidemiology, 1986The association between retinopathy and mortality in hypertensive patients is well established. At the same level of blood pressure the prognosis gets worse with increasing seriousness of retinopathy. To assess the prognostic value of retinopathy for all-causes mortality, we studied the data from a general health survey of 1583 men and 1508 women after
