Why the study?
Choroidal thickness and intrarenal hemodynamic damage reflect vascular complications of arterial hypertension, but their relationship in essential hypertension had not been assessed.
Is choroidal thickness associated with renal hemodynamics in subjects with essential hypertension?
Is choroidal thickness associated with renal hemodynamics in subjects with essential hypertension?
Choroidal thickness is independently associated with the renal resistive index in patients with essential hypertension, suggesting shared microvascular damage.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May indicate shared microvascular injury in essential hypertension; leaves open causal and prognostic value pending prospective studies.
Geraci et al. (2020) studied this question.
