- 公共卫生 公共卫生
背景情况:
- 阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停 (OSA) 是一种常见的疾病,与各种系统性健康问题有关.
- 与年龄相关的黄斑变性 (AMD) 是老年人视力丧失的主要原因.
- 机关和AMD风险和进展之间的潜在联系仍然是积极研究的领域.
研究的目的:
- 研究被诊断的阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停 (OSA) 与与年龄相关的黄斑变性 (AMD) 的发生率和进展之间的关联.
- 评估患有不同形式的AMD的风险,以及在患有OSA的个体中需要特定治疗的需要.
主要方法:
- 一个回顾性队列研究,利用TrinetX无标识电子健康记录网络.
- 在倾向性得分匹配后,对被诊断为OSA (n=58,700) 和没有OSA (n=58,700) 的个体进行比较.
- 评估5年来AMD发展,黄斑出血,法律失明和抗VEGF干预需求.
主要成果:
- 与对照人群相比,患有OSA的个体显著增加了非排泄性AMD (HR,2.64),排泄性AMD (HR,2.48) 和需要抗VEGF治疗 (HR,2.85) 的风险.

Photoreceptors and Visual Pathways
5.9K
At the molecular level, visual signals trigger transformations in photopigment molecules, resulting in changes in the photoreceptor cell's membrane potential. The photon's energy level is denoted by its wavelength, with each specific wavelength of visible light associated with a distinct color. The spectral range of visible light, classified as electromagnetic radiation, spans from 380 to 720 nm. Electromagnetic radiation wavelengths exceeding 720 nm fall under the infrared category,...

Aging is a complex biological phenomenon influenced by various processes that affect cellular and systemic functions. Several prominent theories attempt to explain its mechanisms, highlighting cellular limitations, oxidative damage, and hormonal changes as central factors in aging.
Cellular Clock Theory
The cellular clock theory posits that the human lifespan is closely tied to the finite capacity of cells to divide, a phenomenon governed by telomeres, which are protective caps at the ends of...
