Assessment of Serum Atherogenic Indices and Insulin Resistance in Retinal Vein Occlusion.
Şaban GönülSerhat EkerPublished in: Turkish journal of ophthalmology (2024)
LDL-C/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, and non-HDL-C/HDL-C ratios were found to be increased in RVO. Compared to the traditional plasma lipid profile, serum atherogenic indices were found to be superior predictors of RVO development. Measurement of HOMA-IR index should be taken into consideration in the evaluation of insulin resistance. High serum atherogenic indexes in RVO patients reveal the need to take precautions against the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.
