Popis: | OBJECTIVE To determine the possible alterations of retinal microcirculation associated with right-sided intracardiac pressures in patients with IPAH. METHODS Twenty patients with IPAH and 20 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were included in the study. Hemodynamic data were obtained from the most recent right heart catheterization. Echocardiographic examination was performed within 24 h of ophthalmological examination. For the right eyes of all participants, high-resolution scans of chorioretinal microvascular networks at different depths of the retina were captured via OCT angiography. RESULTS The perfusion of the superficial and deep capillary plexus (SCP and DCP), and choriocapillaris (CCP) flow area were significantly lower than those in healthy control subjects (p |
