Core Tip |
Explore prediabetes-related retinal microcirculation changes with Optical coherence tomography angiography. Categorizing volunteers into Impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and controls, our study reveals postprandial shifts in vessel density, perfusion density (PD), and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) metrics. Noteworthy findings include increased FAZ circularity in IFG/IGT, larger FAZ area/perimeter in IFG, and positive correlation of fasting PD with blood glucose. This novel analysis provides insights into the nuanced impact of short-term blood glucose elevation on retinal microcirculation in prediabetes. Clinicians and researchers, stay tuned for potential clinical implications! |
