In a groundbreaking discovery that sounds like science fiction but is absolutely real, researchers have found that your eyes contain hidden signals that could predict your risk of having a stroke.

The blood-brain and blood-retinal barriers are protective systems that prevent harmful substances from entering the brain and ...

Changes in retinal microvasculature can predict recurrent vascular events in patients after ischemic stroke, according to a recent study published in Neurology. Improvements in acute care of patients ...

Findings suggest that retinal age gap could be potentially used as a novel screening tool for individuals at high risk of stroke. A large prospective cohort study of 35,304 participants (age 40-69 ...

Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is significantly associated with stroke development, according to a recent study. Although the investigators adjusted for potential confounders, they acknowledge that the ...

A vascular 'fingerprint' on the light sensitive tissue layer at the back of the eye-the retina-can predict a person's risk of stroke as accurately as traditional risk factors alone, but without the ...

Area under receiver operating characteristic curve improved with retinal parameters, outperforming traditional risk factors. (HealthDay News) — Retinal vascular parameters are associated with stroke ...

Large-artery stiffness is a risk factor for stroke, including cerebral small-vessel disease. Retinal microvascular changes are thought to mirror those in cerebral microvessels. We investigated the ...

Retinal snapshots could help pinpoint people at high risk of suffering a stroke, say US researchers. They say their technique is cheap enough to be used by opticians and GPs to mass-screen patients.

Retinal artery occlusion of all types is associated with significantly increased risk of stroke, which is higher in the period immediately adjacent to the event, according to two studies based on data ...
