TL;DR: Overall, the prevalence of any AMD in the 2005-2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey was 6.5%, which is lower than the 9.4% prevalence reported in the 1988-1994 Third National health and nutrition Examination Survey.
Journal ArticleDOI
The risk of cardiovascular disease mortality associated with microalbuminuria and gross proteinuria in persons with older-onset diabetes mellitus.
TL;DR: Results from this population-based study strongly suggest that both microalbuminuria and gross proteinuria were significantly associated with subsequent mortality from all causes and from cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and coronary heart diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Wisconsin Epidemiologic Study of Diabetic Retinopathy: XXII the twenty-five-year progression of retinopathy in persons with type 1 diabetes.
TL;DR: These data show relatively high 25-year cumulative rates of progression of DR and incidence of PDR and the lower risk of prevalent PDR in more recently diagnosed persons possibly reflects improvement in care over the period of the study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Georgia Pambianco,Tina Costacou,Demetrius Ellis,Dorothy J. Becker,Ronald Klein,Trevor J. Orchard +5 more
