Modeling Chronic Glycemic Exposure Variables as Correlates and Predictors of Microvascular Complications of Diabetes Response to Orchard et al.
Peter J. Dyck,Jenny L. Davies,Vicki M. Clark,William J. Litchy,P. James B. Dyck,Christopher J. Klein,Robert A. Rizza,John M. Pach,Ronald Klein,Timothy S. Larson,L. Joseph Melton,Peter C. O'Brien +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated whether composite measures of chronic glycemia correlate or predict complications better than individual components, while Orchard et al. reported evidence against the hypothesis, while we reported evidence for the hypothesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low Birthweight Is Associated With Narrower Arterioles in Adults
Gerald Liew,Jie Jin Wang,Jie Jin Wang,Bruce Bartholow Duncan,Ronald Klein,A. Richey Sharrett,Frederick Brancati,Hsin Chieh Yeh,Paul Mitchell,Tien Yin Wong,Tien Yin Wong +10 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that structural alterations in the arteriolar microcirculation may be a potential mechanism linking restricted fetal growth with subsequent risk of hypertension, and this association was also present in persons without hypertension or diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retinal microvascular changes and MRI signs of cerebral atrophy in healthy, middle-aged people.
Tien Yin Wong,Tien Yin Wong,Thomas H. Mosley,Ronald Klein,Barbara E.K. Klein,A. R. Sharrett,David Couper,Larry D. Hubbard +7 more
TL;DR: In healthy, middle-aged people, retinopathy is independently associated with sulcal and ventricular enlargement on MRI, compatible with the hypothesis that microvascular characteristics may influence the development of cerebral atrophic changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lower-than-Expected Prevalence and Severity of Retinopathy in an Incident Cohort followed during the First 4–14 Years of Type 1 Diabetes: The Wisconsin Diabetes Registry Study
TL;DR: Improvements in diabetes care leading to better glycemic control may have contributed to the much lower prevalence and less severe retinopathy observed than expected on the basis of a previous report from the same region of Wisconsin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Signal quality assessment of retinal optical coherence tomography images.
Yijun Huang,Sapna Gangaputra,Kristine E. Lee,Ashwini Narkar,Ronald Klein,Barbara E.K. Klein,Stacy M. Meuer,Ronald P. Danis +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, an intensity histogram decomposition model was proposed to separate the foreground and background information of OCT images and to calculate the maximum tissue contrast index (mTCI), which was compared with the manufacturer signal index (MSI) provided by the respective devices and to the subjective grading scores (SGS).
