Effect of APOE polymorphisms on early responses to traumatic brain injury.

abstract：:Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of vision loss and blindness. Increasing evidence has shown that the neuronal components of the retina are affected even before the detection of vascular lesions. Hyperglycemia is considered the main pathogenic factor for the development of diabetic complications. Nevertheless, ...
