Bedtime versus morning use of antihypertensives in frail continuing care residents (BedMed-Frail): protocol for a prospective, randomised, open-label, blinded end-point pragmatic trial
Introduction BedMed-Frail explores risks and benefits of switching antihypertensives from morning to bedtime in a frail population at greater risk of hypotensive adverse effects. Methods and analysis Design: Prospective parallel randomised, open-label, blinded end-point trial. Participants: Hypertensive continuing care residents, in either long-term care or supportive living, who are free from glaucoma, and using ≥1 once daily antihypertensive. Setting: 16 volunteer continuing care facilities in Alberta, Canada, with eligible residents identified using electronic health claims data. Intervention: All non-opted out elig...

Prevalence and risk factors of retinal vein occlusion in the United States: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2005 to 2008
Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2023 Feb 14;36(3):335-340. doi: 10.1080/08998280.2023.2173938. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTRetinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a rare, vision-threatening vascular disorder. Due to limited recovery associated with RVO, prevention is essential. There is a significant discrepancy in previously reported epidemiological studies in the United States on the prevalence and risk factors of RVO. The purpose of this retrospective, cross-sectional study was to determine the prevalence and risk factors of RVO in adults ≥40 years of age in the US using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2...

Associations of ophthalmic and systemic conditions with incident dementia in the UK Biobank
Conclusions AMD, cataract and DRED but not glaucoma are associated with an increased risk of dementia. Individuals with both ophthalmic and systemic conditions are at higher risk of dementia compared with those with an ophthalmic or systemic condition only.

Association between glaucoma and risk of stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsWe found that glaucoma was associated with an increased risk of stroke. The result suggests that patients with glaucoma need to be assessed the risk of stroke to reduce the incidence of stroke. To better explore the nature of any association, prospective studies that consider the stroke subtypes, sample size, district, and other confounding factors are needed.

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Glaucoma Among Chinese People From the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study
Conclusions: Geographic variation in the prevalence of self-reported glaucoma and its strong association with preexisting systemic chronic diseases were observed, suggesting that in addition to ophthalmological examinations, regular physical examinations are necessary for glaucoma patients, especially in areas of high incidence. Appropriate strategies to improve preventive measures for glaucoma are recommended for the Chinese population.

Similarities and differences in systemic risk factors for retinal artery occlusion and retinal vein occlusion: A nationwide case-control study
CONCLUSION: Differences in the level of associations with the included risk factors suggests differences in the pathophysiologies of the two diseases. The main pathophysiology associated with RAO was atherosclerosis, whereas the main pathophysiology associated with RVO was changes in the pressure gradients of the eyes.PMID:36056288 | DOI:10.1007/s10792-022-02483-3
