The severity of endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, lipid metabolism disorders, decreased elastic properties and tone of peripheral vessels in patients with different POAG course variants, depending on the polymorphism of the genes of the biological clock
Abstract:The purpose is to find out the relations of the vascular endothelium dysfunction, atherosclerotic damage to the vessels of the upper and lower limbs, the state of the antioxidant and prooxidant systems, and the lipid profile in patients with different POAG course — carriers of biological clock gene polymorphism.Materials and methods. 47 patients with advanced POAG underwent an examination that included visometry, biomicroscopy, ophthalmoscopy, perimetry, tonometry, thermometry, as well as determination of lipi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
