To determine whether hemorrheologic factors play a part in optic nerve cupping and visual field loss in glaucoma, blood viscosity was measured at three shear rates in 27 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and 18 healthy control subjects matched for sex, mean arterial blood pressure and smoking habits. The study was conducted between 1984 and 1986. The mean viscosity was significantly higher in the glaucoma group than in the control group at all three shear rates. The possible relevance of raised blood viscosity as a causal factor in optic nerve cupping in patients with glaucoma is discussed.
为了确定血液流变学因素是否在青光眼的视神经杯状凹陷及视野缺损中起作用,于1984年至1986年期间,在27例原发性开角型青光眼患者及18名在性别、平均动脉血压和吸烟习惯方面相匹配的健康对照者中,于三种切变率下测量了血液粘度。青光眼组在所有三种切变率下的平均粘度均显著高于对照组。文中讨论了血液粘度升高作为青光眼患者视神经杯状凹陷病因的可能相关性。
