The impact of initial admission department on the management and prognosis of retinal artery occlusion
CONCLUSIONS: The study demonstrated that the visual prognosis of RAO was devastating regardless of the neurology and ophthalmology department. Given the admission delay, inadequate management, and high risk of cardiovascular risk factors and stroke, stroke centers should be recommended as initial admission departments for RAO patients.PMID:36305143 | DOI:10.2174/1567202620666221027091249

Assessment of left atrium and diastolic dysfunction in patients with hypertensive retinopathy: A real-time three-dimensional echocardiography-based study.
Abstract The fundoscopic examination of hypertensive patients, which is established hypertension-related target organ damage (TOD), tends to be underutilized in clinical practice. We sought to investigate the relationship between retinal alterations and left atrium (LA) volumes by means of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE). Our population consisted of 88 consecutive essential hypertensive patients (age 59.2 ± 1.2 years, 35 males). All subjects underwent a fundoscopy examination and were distributed into four groups according to the Keith-Wagener-Barker (KWB) classification. The four groups (KWB...

Left atrial volume changes is an early marker of end ‐organ damage in essential hypertension: A multidisciplinary approach to an old problem
ConclusionRT3DE measured LA phasic volumes and mechanical functions are associated with hypertensive EOD, which might serve as a surrogate endpoint for determining cardiovascular mortality and morbidity rates in patients with essential HT.

Dosing issues with non-vitamin  K antagonist oral anticoagulants for the treatment of non-valvular atrial fibrillation: Why we should not underdose our patients.
Dosing issues with non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants for the treatment of non-valvular atrial fibrillation: Why we should not underdose our patients. Arch Cardiovasc Dis. 2017 Oct 02;: Authors: Dillinger JG, Aleil B, Cheggour S, Benhamou Y, Béjot Y, Marechaux S, Delluc A, Bertoletti L, Lellouche N Abstract Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) - dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban and edoxaban - are well established in terms of preventing stroke or systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and high thromboembolism risk. When prescribed incorrectly...

Age Is a Greater Influence on Small Saccades Than Target Size in Normal Subjects on the Horizontal Video Head Impulse Test
Conclusion: While this study suggests that target size may have a statistically significant impact on the vHIT saccade profile of normal subjects, age has a greater influence on the incidence and size of small vHIT saccades. Introduction The video head impulse test (vHIT) is a quantitative adaptation of the clinical head impulse test (1), and enables functional assessment of the high-frequency angular vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) in all three planes of head rotation (2, 3). Lightweight goggles worn by the subject detect head movement using an accelerometer and gyroscope, and a high frame rate video camera tracks eye...

Programmable Multistable Mechanisms for Safe Surgical Puncturing
We present novel medical devices for safe surgical puncturing, in particular a cannula for the treatment of retinal vein occlusion (RVO). This passive mechanical device has an adjustable stroke and exerts a puncturing force independent of operator applied displacement. The innovative feature of this tool is that puncturing stroke is decoupled from operator input thereby minimizing the possibility of overpuncturing. This is achieved using our concept of stability programming, where the user modifies the mechanism strain energy as opposed to imposing direct displacement which is the case for standard bistable mechanisms. Ult...

ASSOCIATION OF RETINAL VEIN OCCLUSION WITH CARDIOVASCULAR EVENTS AND MORTALITY: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Conclusion: This review suggests patients with RVO have an increased risk of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. More studies are needed to determine the highest risk periods for cardiovascular events and mortality after RVO and whether immediate cardiovascular evaluation and intervention will improve outcomes.

Role of Bariatric Surgery in Managing Macrovascular Complications of Obesity-Related Type 2 Diabetes
Reducing the risk of macrovascular events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, is a major goal when treating diabetes. Despite this focus, of the major randomized trials used to support current diabetes guidelines (ACCORD, ADVANCE, UKPDS 33, UKPDS 34, VADT), none showed reductions in macrovascular events when the trial results were first reported. For example, UKPDS is still frequently cited in support of aggressive glucose lowering, yet when the primary outcome data were presented in 1998, the results showed no difference between groups in terms of reducing the risk of all-cause mortality (relative risk [RR], 0.94...

275 A Case Study of Retinal Artery Occlusion Following Mechanical Thrombectomy via Direct Carotid Puncture.
ConclusionProximal intracranial occlusion can effectively be treated with mechanical thrombectomy. Carotid puncture is a rarely used but effective alternative method of arterial access (11 out of 498 procedures between August 2016 and August 2018). Retinal artery occlusion is a possible complication from mechanical thrombectomy with carotid puncture.

Retinal vessel changes in cerebrovascular disease
Purpose of review The retina is growingly recognized as a window into cerebrovascular and systemic vascular conditions. The utility of noninvasive retinal vessel biomarkers in cerebrovascular risk assessment has expanded due to advances in retinal imaging techniques and machine learning-based digital analysis. The purpose of this review is to underscore the latest evidence linking retinal vascular abnormalities with stroke and vascular-related cognitive disorders; to highlight modern developments in retinal vascular imaging modalities and software-based vasculopathy quantification. Recent findings Longitudinal studies...
