Retinal artery occlusion was associated with a 1.56-fold increased risk for acute coronary syndrome (relative risk [RR], 1.56; 95% CI, 1.22-1.99) and a twofold increased risk for all-cause mortality ...

Patients with retinal artery occlusions (RAOs) had subsequent increased risks of death, stroke, and myocardial infarction (MI) over both the short and long term compared with matched controls with ...

The central retinal artery is one of the main arterial supplies for the retina. It pierces the eyeball close to the optic nerve and within the dural sheath, and it branches and supplies the inner ...

We conducted a phase 3, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized, controlled trial involving adults with acute, nonarteritic central retinal artery occlusion who had symptom onset within 4.5 hours ...

The retina is a specialized patch of central nervous system tissue located at the back of the eye. When the principal source of oxygen and metabolic substrates to the retina — the central retinal ...

Patients with a history of retinal artery occlusions were found to have an increased risk of myocardial infarction and death compared with patients who had cataracts. Higher risks of death, stroke, ...

Tenecteplase failed to outperform aspirin for vision recovery when administered within 4.5 hours of onset of acute central retinal artery occlusion. The thrombolytic treatment increased safety risks, ...

Researchers have identified novel retinal vascular signatures that are significantly associated with the risk for a first stroke. When combined with age and sex, these retinal “fingerprints” predicted ...
