Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence and characteristics of choroidal nevi: the multi-ethnic study of atherosclerosis.
Max B. Greenstein,Chelsea E. Myers,Stacy M. Meuer,Barbara E.K. Klein,Mary Frances Cotch,Tien Yin Wong,Tien Yin Wong,Ronald Klein +7 more
TL;DR: Low prevalences of choroidal nevi were found in the 4 groups participating in the MESA cohort, with whites having higher prevalence than the other racial or ethnic groups.
Journal Article
Ocular Risk Factors for Age–related Macular Degeneration. The Los Angeles Latino Eye Study (LALES)
TL;DR: Cross-sectional associations of ocular factors such as cataracts, cataract surgery, and refractive errors with early AMD lesions found in Latinos are consistent with those in non-Hispanic Whites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bilateral effects of unilateral GDNF administration on dopamine- and GABA-regulating proteins in the rat nigrostriatal system.
TL;DR: Assessment of dopamine- and GABA-regulating proteins in the striatum and substantia nigra of 24 month old Fischer 344 rats found that long-lasting bilateral effects of GDNF on proteins regulating DA and GABA neuronal function likely alter physiological properties in neurons associated with locomotion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol consumption and the 15-year cumulative incidence of age-related macular degeneration.
TL;DR: Heavy drinking at baseline was related to the 15-year cumulative incidence of pure geographic atrophy in men and there were no consistent associations with the amount of beer, wine, or liquor consumption and the incidence or progression of AMD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Common Retinal Vessel Caliber Measurement Software and a Conversion Algorithm
Wanfen Yip,Yih Chung Tham,Wynne Hsu,Mong Li Lee,Ronald Klein,Barbara E.K. Klein,Mohammad Kamran Ikram,Tien Yin Wong,Carol Y. Cheung +8 more
TL;DR: An algorithm was created to convert measurements, and the strength of correlations between systemic factors with SIVA-measured retinal calibers was not significantly different to that measured using RA and IVAN (P ≥ 0.332).
