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 vessel traits associate with balance impairment

Greater venular width tracked higher odds of balance impairment (OR, 1.61), while greater arteriolar area tracked lower odds (OR, 0.82) over three years.Greater venular width tracked higher odds of balance impairment (OR, 1.61), while greater arteriolar area tracked lower odds (OR, 0.82) over three years.
