Interleukin-6 and Diabetic Retinopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Children with chronic kidney diseases (CKD) are at risk for neurological diseases at early adulthood. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) of the retina is especially suitable for determination of intraretinal layer thickness. We wonder whether retinal thinning is already present in pediatric...
