Retinal scan model identified existing brain blood vessel disease

Detection scores were 0.95 in internal testing and 0.94 in external testing, where higher scores mean better separation of people with and without disease.Detection scores were 0.95 in internal testing and 0.94 in external testing, where higher scores mean better separation of people with and without disease.

Retinal measurements helped predict cancer in UK cohort

People classified as high risk from retinal measurements had nearly threefold higher cancer risk over 12 years than those classified as low risk.People classified as high risk from retinal measurements had nearly threefold higher cancer risk over 12 years than those classified as low risk.

Measures of cardiovascular aging share little genetic overlap

In 163,721 UK Biobank participants, computer models of four cardiovascular aging tests showed distinct patterns with low genetic correlation across heart, artery, and eye…In 163,721 UK Biobank participants, computer models of four cardiovascular aging tests showed distinct patterns with low genetic correlation across heart, artery, and eye scans.

Retinal vascular changes track mortality risk in humans

Increased retinal fractal dimension carried a mortality hazard ratio of 0.92 per standard deviation, whereas arteriolar widening carried a hazard ratio of 1.09.Increased retinal fractal dimension carried a mortality hazard ratio of 0.92 per standard deviation, whereas arteriolar widening carried a hazard ratio of 1.09.

Retinal asymmetry between eyes is linked to cardiovascular risk

Across 46,836 adults, each standard deviation increase in retinal nerve fiber layer asymmetry was linked to hazard ratios from ~1.07 for atrial fibrillation to 1.15 for…Across 46,836 adults, each standard deviation increase in retinal nerve fiber layer asymmetry was linked to hazard ratios from ~1.07 for atrial fibrillation to 1.15 for heart failure.
