The pattern and diffuse flash electroretinograms were measured in 20 normal subjects and 40 diabetic patients who had either normal fundi or microaneurysms only. The amplitudes of the pattern electroretinogram were found to be similar in both normals and diabetics. In the case of the flash electroretinogram the diabetic patients showed a division into two main groups. One group was not dissimilar to the group of normal subjects, while the second group showed hypernormal amplitudes. No explanation could be given, from the data collected, for this subdivision, though it is suggested it might reflect the degree of metabolic disturbance.
对20名正常受试者和40名仅患有正常眼底或微动脉瘤的糖尿病患者进行了图形和弥漫性闪光视网膜电图测量。发现正常人和糖尿病患者的图形视网膜电图振幅相似。在闪光视网膜电图方面,糖尿病患者分为两个主要组。一组与正常受试者组没有差异,而第二组显示出超正常振幅。根据收集到的数据,无法对这种细分做出解释,不过有人认为这可能反映了代谢紊乱的程度。
