OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors for branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) in young patients. METHODS Observational case series with retrospective comparative controls. The medical records of 60 consecutive patients (aged ≤ 49 years) with BRVO were reviewed to note patients' age, sex, body

Bilateral central retinal vein occlusion as an initial manifestation of pseudotumor cerebri.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pseudotumor cerebri, or benign intracranial hypertension, is known to produce visual symptoms. Central retinal vein occlusion has been linked with pseudotumor cerebri but rarely as an initial manifestation. We describe a 46-year-old patient--who was obese and mildly hypertensive with bilateral

[Fibrinolytic system and a central retinal vein thrombosis].

Only registered users can translate articles

On the basis of literature review the role of fibrinolysis in the pathogenesis of central retinal vein thrombosis is presented. It has been proved by many authors that fibrinolytic activity is depressed in patients with vascular thrombosis, due to increased levels of fibrinolytic inhibitors mainly

Familial thrombophilia and retinal vein occlusion.

OBJECTIVE To perform a pilot study on the prevalence of familial thrombophilia in all cases of retinal vein occlusion with no known risk factors. METHODS Over the 1 year study period 71 patients presented with a new diagnosis of retinal vein occlusion (age 28-90 years). Fifty-five (77%) were

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND To analyze cardiovascular risk factors and comorbidity of acute unilateral visual loss due to combined central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) and cilioretinal artery occlusion (CLRAO). UNASSIGNED Among patients with retinal vein or artery occlusion hospitalized at the Department of

Impaired fibrinolysis in retinal vein occlusion: a role for genetic determinants of PAI-1 levels.

Only registered users can translate articles

Few and contrasting data are available on the presence of a thrombophilic state in patients with retinal vein occlusion (RVO), and we have previously demonstrated a role of elevated PAI-1 activity as a risk factor for this condition. The present study was undertaken to investigate whether PAI 4G/5G

LABORATORY EVALUATION OF HYPERCOAGULABLE STATES IN PATIENTS WITH CENTRAL RETINAL VEIN OCCLUSION WHO ARE LESS THAN 56 YEARS OF AGE.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the results of early tests for hypercoagulability are correlated with the development of central retinal vein occlusion risk factors later in life and to evaluate the necessity of these tests in younger patients. METHODS This was a retrospective, observational case

Platelet activation by ADP is increased in selected patients with anterior ischemic optic neuropathy or retinal vein occlusion.

Only registered users can translate articles

To investigate whether adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet hyperaggregability is associated with nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) or retinal vein occlusion (RVO). We retrospectively reviewed thrombophilia screening data of patients with NAION or RVO without a history

Cardiovascular risk factors and outcome in patients with retinal vein occlusion.

Only registered users can translate articles

The pathogenesis and treatment of retinal vein occlusions (RVO) are largely unclear. Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and of thrombophilic abnormalities was evaluated in 117 patients (61 M, 56 F; mean age 51 +/- 13 years) with a history of RVO (62 central, CRVO; 48 branch, BRVO; 7 both) and
