Ischaemic Optic Neuropathy After Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Incidence and Risk Factors

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Across 11 observational studies comprising 6 471 577 patients, the pooled incidence of ischaemic optic neuropathy after cardiac surgery was approximately 1.5 cases per 10 000 procedures. Coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease and anaemia were associated with increased odds of ION, although these findings should be interpreted in the ...

Acute lower limb ischemia due to thrombo-embolic arterial occlusions in two previously healthy men with markedly elevated Lp(a) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) is a well-documented risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Its role in acute thrombo-embolic occlusions of peripheral arteries is not known.

The effect of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment on retinal oxygenation

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Little is known about the effects of retinal detachment on oxygen extraction from retinal vessels. The role of oxygen supply from the retinal vessels in a detached area has not previously been investigated in vivo in humans. Retinal oximetry is a non‐invasive measurement of retinal oxygen saturation.

Visual acuity is reduced with increasing central retinal thickness, but also with higher age and female sex in diabetic macular oedema

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The increasing number of patients with diabetes has increased the incidence of diabetic macular oedema (DME) with the accompanying risk of developing visual loss. The purpose of the present study was to describe the contributions of increased central retinal thickness (CRT) and other risk factors to the reduction in visual acuity ...

En face localization of retinal telangiectatic capillaries using OCT compared with ICG angiography in chronic vascular macular oedema

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Retinal telangiectatic capillaries (TelCaps) are microvascular abnormalities associated with chronic vascular macular oedema and suboptimal response to intravitreal therapy. Targeted laser photocoagulation is beneficial but requires precise localization using indocyanine green angiography (ICG‐A), the reference standard. However, ICG‐A

Retinal and orbital venous occlusions treated with enoxaparin

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Retinal and orbital vein occlusions may cause a decrease in visual acuity. There is no known therapy to resolve ocular thrombosis. The authors used enoxaparin, a low-molecular-weight heparin, to treat 8 consecutive cases of retinal vein ...

Macular telangiectasia type 2 genetic risk variants associated with clinical characteristics in the Slovenian cohort

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Early diagnosis of macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel) remains challenging, and the contribution of genetic variation to its clinical heterogeneity is unclear. This study investigated associations between MacTel risk variants and clinical characteristics in a Slovenian cohort.
