Journal ArticleDOI
Retinal Vessel Diameters and the Incidence of Gross Proteinuria and Renal Insufficiency in People With Type 1 Diabetes
TL;DR: In individuals with type 1 diabetes, larger retinal venular diameter is independently associated with the long-term incidence of gross proteinuria and renal insufficiency and may provide additional predictive information regarding risk of nephropathy.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship of diabetic retinopathy to preclinical diabetic glomerulopathy lesions in type 1 diabetic patients: The renin-angiotensin system study
Ronald Klein,Bernard Zinman,Robert Gardiner,Samy Suissa,Sandra Donnelly,Alan R. Sinaiko,Michael S. Kramer,Paul Goodyer,Scot E. Moss,Trudy Strand,Michael Mauer +10 more
TL;DR: A significant association between diabetic retinopathy and preclinical morphologic changes of diabetic nephropathy in type 1 diabetic patients is demonstrated, while controlling for other risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Causes of Low Vision and Blindness in Adult Latinos: The Los Angeles Latino Eye Study
TL;DR: In this article, the causes of vision loss in persons with low vision and blindness were identified as cataract, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and myopic degeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ethnicity, race, and baseline retinopathy correlates in the veterans affairs diabetes trial.
Nicholas V. Emanuele,Jerome Sacks,Ronald Klein,Domenic J. Reda,Robert J. Anderson,William C. Duckworth,Carlos Abraira +6 more
TL;DR: A higher frequency of severe diabetic retinopathy was found in the Hispanic and African-American patients at entry into the VADT that is not accounted for by traditional risk factors for diabetic Retinopathy, and these substantial ethnic differences remain to be explained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retinal microvascular abnormalities and subclinical magnetic resonance imaging brain infarct: a prospective study
Ning Cheung,Thomas H. Mosley,Amirul Islam,Amirul Islam,Ryo Kawasaki,A. Richey Sharrett,Ronald Klein,Laura H. Coker,David S. Knopman,Dean Shibata,Diane J. Catellier,Tien Yin Wong,Tien Yin Wong +12 more
TL;DR: Retinal microvascular abnormalities are associated with emergence of subclinical magnetic resonance imaging brain infarcts and white matter lesions, independent of shared risk factors.
