Abstract
\nPURPOSE:<\/p>\n
To investigate the risk of developing retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in patients with psoriasis.
\nMETHODS:<\/p>\n
In this retrospective population-based cohort study, 30,198 patients with psoriasis (Psoriasis((+)) group) and 30,198 controls without psoriasis (Psoriasis((?)) group) between 2001 and 2006 from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database were selected.
\nRESULTS:<\/p>\n
The incidence of RVO was 1.46 times higher in the Psoriasis((+)) group than in the Psoriasis((?)) group (3.61 vs. 2.47\/10,000 person-years) (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.50; 95% confidence interval = 1.07-2.10) calculated using Cox proportional hazard regression. Age was an independent risk factor for RVO (adjusted hazard ratio: 11.9 for patients 65 years or older vs. 1.00 for those 0-49 years old). In the 65 years or older Psoriasis((+)) group, the incidence of developing RVO was 1.97 times higher (95% confidence interval = 1.19-3.26) than in the 65 years or older Psoriasis((?)) group. In Psoriasis((+)) women, the incidence of developing RVO was 1.82 times higher (95% = 1.05-3.14) than in Psoriasis((?)) women. For the subgroup with comorbid hypertension, the incidence of developing RVO was 2.07 times higher (95% confidence interval = 1.22-3.50) in the Psoriasis((+)) group than in the Psoriasis((?)) group.
\nCONCLUSION:<\/p>\n
Psoriasis was significantly associated with a higher risk of developing RVO.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-43760","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-articulos-cientificos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43760","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43760"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43760\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43760"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43760"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piel-l.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43760"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
