Inconsistent evidence precludes CV screening or risk modification in PEX; leaves systemic association open for prospective validation.
Is Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome associated with increased cardiovascular and cerebrovascular morbidity?
This review highlights a potential systemic link between pseudoexfoliation syndrome and cardiovascular diseases, suggesting shared pathogenetic mechanisms like oxidative stress and inflammation.
A 2014 study conducted a review in Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome and cardiovascular diseases. Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome was evaluated. Pseudoexfoliation syndrome appears to represent a systemic process associated with increased cardiovascular and cerebrovascular morbidity, though published results remain inconsistent.
