Aims Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is the most frequent retinal vascular disease after
diabetic retinopathy in which arterial risk factors are much more relevant than venous
factors. The objective was to evaluate the role of risk factors in the development of the first
episode of RVO. Subjects and Methods One hundred patients with RVO [mean age 56
years, 42% females and mean body mass index (BMI) 27.5 kg/m2] were recruited
consecutively from the outpatient clinic of a tertiary hospital in V alencia (S pain). All subjects …

Objective To perform a risk factor analysis of central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) and
branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO), and compare the difference in risk factors between
CRVO and BRVO. Methods Retrospective observational casecontrol study included 46
CRVO patients, 33 BRVO patients and 79 control subjects with senile cataract or refractive
error, the risk factors and blood lipid spectrum analysis were performed and compared.
Results Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that higher serum levels of …
