Meanings of retinal vasodilation in anglès

Objective: Flicker light-induced retinal vasodilation may reflect endothelial function in the retinal circulation.

Purpose: To investigate the impact of retesting frequency over a short period on flicker light-induced retinal vasodilation.

Flicker light-induced retinal vasodilation (percentage increase over baseline diameter) was measured using the Dynamic Vessel Analyzer.

Conclusions: Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids and prostaglandins are unlikely to be primary mediators of flicker light-induced retinal vasodilation in humans.

Conclusions: Diabetic patients without retinopathy with relatively good glycemic control show reduced retinal vasodilation after flicker indicating dysfunction in retinal autoregulation.

Conclusions: Reduced retinal vasodilation after flicker light stimulation is independently associated with diabetes status and, in individuals with diabetes, with diabetic retinopathy.

Purpose: To investigate the impact of ambient room lighting on the magnitude of flicker light-induced retinal vasodilations in healthy individuals.
