Anxiety in Patients with Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration.

Purpose: The main objective of the study is to investigate the prevalence of anxiety in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).

Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study of 3 304 nAMD patients and 16 515 age- and gender-matched controls. The proportions of patients with anxiety were compared between the groups using univariate analyses and a multivariate logistic regression model.

Thicker macula in asymptomatic Ɛ4 middle-aged adults at high AD risk.

Introduction: We compared retinal layers' thickness between apolipoprotein E () Ɛ4 carriers and non-carriers in a cohort of cognitively normal middle-aged adults enriched for Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk.

Methods: Participants (N = 245) underwent spectral domain optical coherence tomography. Multivariate analyses of covariance adjusting for age, sex, education, and best corrected vision acuity was used to compare retinal thickness between groups.
