Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol consumption, drinking pattern, and self-reported visual impairment.
TL;DR: Among current drinkers, drinking patterns were significantly associated with near and distance vision impairment and drinkers who drink beyond drinking guidelines, especially binge drinkers, are at higher risk of visual impairment than those who drink at lower levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using smoothing spline anova to examine the relation of risk factors to the incidence and progression of diabetic retinopathy
TL;DR: This work investigates risk factors for incidence and progression of diabetic retinopathy in a group of patients with older onset diabetes from the Wisconsin Epidemiological Study of Diabetic Retinopathy using smoothing spline ANOVA methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lens thickness and five-year cumulative incidence of cataracts: The Beaver Dam Eye Study.
TL;DR: Lens thickness was positivelyassociated with incident nuclear cataract and inversely associated with incident cortical cataracts after accounting for age, sex, diabetes status, hypertension, heavy drinking and cigarette smoking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptome analysis of a tau overexpression model in rats implicates an early pro-inflammatory response.
TL;DR: DNA microarrays at an early stage of the tau-induced disease state underscore microgliosis and immune response in the degenerative process following tau overexpression and correlate well with previous findings.
