Popis: | Cilj studije bio je ispitati incidenciju strabizma u nedonoščadi rođene između 2002. i 2005. godine u Splitsko-dalmatinskoj županiji, te ju usporediti s onom u djece rođene u terminu. Podatci su prikupljeni iz Uprave za javno zdravstvo Splitsko-dalmatinske županije i Strabološke ambulante Klinike za očne bolesti Kliničkog bolničkog centra Split. Strabizam je zabilježen kod 796 (3,97%) djece rođene u navedenom razdoblju. Strabizam je dijagnosticiran kod 1,37% djece rođene u terminu i 17,57% nedonoščadi. Kod nedonoščadi različiti čimbenici mogu izazvati poremećaje kao što su difuzni i žarišni defekti bijele moždane tvari, te poremećaje oligodendroglijalnih stanica, što bi pak moglo objasniti višu incidenciju strabizma kod nedonoščadi u usporedbi s djecom rođenom u terminu. The aim of the study was to determine the incidence of strabismus in preterm infants born between 2002 and 2005 in Split-Dalmatia County, and to compare it with term infants. Data were collected from Department of Public Health, Split-Dalmatia County and Strabology Outpatient Department, University Department of Ophthalmology, Split University Hospital Center. Strabismus was present in 796 (3.97%) children born between 2002 and 2005. Strabismus was diagnosed in 1.37% of term infants and 17.57% of preterm infants. Various factors can produce disorders in preterm infants, such as diffuse and focal defects of the white brain matter, and disorders of oligodendroglial cells, which may explain the higher incidence of strabismus in preterm infants as compared with term infants. |
