Retinal vascular caliber in persons with type 2 diabetes: the Wisconsin Epidemiological Study of Diabetic Retinopathy: XX.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe retinal vascular caliber and correlates in people with type 2 diabetes and find that the retinal arteriolar equivalent (CRAE) was associated with age (per 10 years, β = −2.2 μm).
