2021, Medical Image AnalysisCitation Excerpt :Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the principal cause of severe central visual loss in individuals older than 75 years in developed countries (Schatz and McDonald, 1989; Potter and Thallemer, 1981; J.S. Sunness et al., 1999b; Maguire and Vine, 1986; Klein et al., 1993; Vingerling et al., 1995; Hirvela et al., 1996).
On the origin of proteins in human drusen: The meet, greet and stick hypothesis
2019, Progress in Retinal and Eye ResearchCitation Excerpt :Except for a few reports (Gass, 1967; Kornzweig, 1977), this observation was largely ignored for over forty years when Maltzman and Hyman (Maltzman et al., 1979; Hyman et al., 1983) pioneered a plethora of subsequent epidemiological studies on the subject (Vidaurri et al., 1984; Vingerling et al., 1995; Snow and Seddon, 1999). Some studies between atherosclerosis (and similar diseases) and AMD showed positive associations (The Eye Disease Case-Control Study, 1992; Klein et al., 1993), while others did not (Hyman et al., 1983). These controversial results, especially in the early investigations, were partly due to differences in description of the clinical phenotype, use of different end phenotypes, study design, population size, lack of suitable replication populations, and insufficient knowledge of possible confounders.
