    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glaucoma; Glaucoma stages; Ocular hypertension; Prevalence; Visual impairment; Prediction model; Lifetime risk; Undetected glaucoma; Screening;

    Sammanfattning : Glaucoma is a potentially blinding disease where the affected individual often firstnotices symptoms when the disease has reached a late stage. If glaucoma is detectedearly e.g., at screening, the risk for visual impairment can be reduced. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is one of the most common chronic skin disorders globally. It is an itchy inflammatory skin disease that can have a detrimental impact on health-related quality of life. In recent years, AD has been associated with non-atopic conditions, though this requires further exploration. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Glaucoma Characteristics and Risk Factors - Results from Malmö Eye Survey

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on data from a large glaucoma screening, comprising 32, 918 elderly citizens of Malmö and data from retrospective analysis of glaucoma patients’ charts from the Eye Department of Malmö University Hospital. The definition of glaucoma was based on reproducible visual field defects and/or glaucomatous optic nerve head damage in both groups. LÄS MER
