Abstract BACKGROUND: We sought to evaluate the systemic and ocular risk factors for severity on visual acuity and central retinal thickness in macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO-ME). METHODS: This retrospective study included 46 RVO-ME patients in The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2015 to November 2019. Systemic examinations include blood pressure, blood glucose, blood lipids, vascular endothelial function, and carotid artery color ultrasound. Ocular examinations include the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and the central retinal thickness (CRT). The integrity of the outer retina was evaluated as well. According to the baseline BCVA and CRT levels, the patients were divided into high vision group and low vision group, high CRT group, and low CRT group. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to analyze the risk factors on baseline BCVA and CRT.RESULTS: We enrolled 19 eyes of CRVO (central retinal vein occlusion) and 27 eyes of BRVO (branch retinal vein occlusion). We identified 31 (67.4%) as high CRT and 23 (50.0%) as poor VA of 46 patients on admission. There were 15 cases of BRVO in the high CRT group (48.4%) and 12 cases in the low CRT group (80.0%). The type of disease (BRVO/CRVO) was an independent factor of baseline CRT (P=0.017). Endothelial dysfunction correlates with baseline BCVA independently (P=0.038). Ellipsoidal zone (EZ) destruction was found in 19 cases (82.6%) in the low vision group and 6 cases (26.1%) in the high vision group. EZ integrity correlates with baseline BCVA independently (P=0.017). CONCLUSION: The central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) has markedly higher CRT than branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). Endothelial dysfunction and disrupted ellipsoidal zone were significantly associated with poor baseline VA on admission.

SummaryA series of coagulation parameters and lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) were explored in plasma from 40 patients with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO, non-ischemic type n = 12; ischemic type n = 28) free of local and systemic predisposing factors, 1 to 12 months after the acute event. Forty age- and sex-matched patients with cataract served as controls. Prothrombin fragment 1.2 (FI.2), D-dimer, FVII:C - but not FVII: Ag - were higher and fibrinogen was lower in CRVO patients than in controls. Patients with non-ischemic CRVO had higher FI .2 and FVII:C and lower heparin cofactor II than patients with ischemic CRVO. Lp(a) levels greater than 300 mg/1 were observed in 12 patients with CRVO and in 4 controls (30% vs 10%, p <0.025). Patients with high Lp(a) - consistently associated with the S2 phenotype - had higher FVII:C, FVII:C/Ag ratio, and fibrinogen than the remaining CRVO patients. Plasma FI.2 and D-dimer correlated fairly in controls (r = 0.41) and patients with normal Lp(a) levels (r = 0.55), but they did not in the group of patients with high Lp(a) (r = 0.19), where the latter parameter was negatively related to D-dimer (r = −0.55). There was no dependence of the abnormalities observed on the time elapsed from vein occlusion. The findings of activated FVII and high FI.2, D-dimer, and Lp(a) are not uncommon in patients with CRVO. Increased thrombin formation with fibrin deposition and impaired fibrinolysis may play a role in the pathophysiology of CRVO and require specific treatment

Aims and Objective - The aim of the present study is to identify risk factors associated with different retinal vascular occlusive diseases (RVOD), such as central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), hemi-retinal artery occlusion (HRAO), branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO), cilioretinal artery occlusion (Cilio-RAO), central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO), and hemi-retinal vein occlusion (HRVO). Patients and Method - A cross-sectional study on 114 consecutive subjects, aged 24-96 years who have attended at the outpatient department of ophthalmology at Shyam Shah Medical College, Rewa, MP, were included in the study. The Duration of study was January 2016 to December 2017. Only patients with CRAO, BRAO, HRAO, Cilio-RAO, CRVO, BRVO, and HRVO were included in the study. Other retinal vascular disorders such as diabetic vaso-occlusive disease, anterior and posterior ischemic and non-ischemic neuropathy, hypertensive retinopathy, sickle cell retinopathy, retinal telangiectasia, retinopathy of prematurity, were excluded from study. Results - We have included 114 patients, 64 cases (56.14%) males, 50 (43.85%) females, aged 56+/-8 years (range 24-96 years).  Bilateral retinal vascular occlusive disorders were seen in only 4 cases (3.5%). Two patients have bilateral CRVO followed by one case of bilateral BRVO and one case of bilateral CRAO.  Out of 114 patients, branch retinal vein occlusion was seen in 62 cases (54.38%), followed by central retinal vein occlusion in 36 cases (31.57%), CRAO in 8 cases (7.01%), and hemi- retinal vein occlusion in 4 cases (3.50%). Hypertension was the most common, (40 cases, 35.08%) risk factor identified for retinal vascular occlusive disorders followed by diabetes 24 cases (21.05%), combined diabetes and hypertension in 22 cases (19.29%), and atherosclerosis in 18 cases (15.78%). Conclusions - Retinal vascular occlusive diseases have systemic as well as ocular risk factors. Understanding of these risk factors is essential for proper treatment of RVOD. Timely identification of risk factors for RVOD may helpful in decreasing ocular and systemic morbidity in these patients.
