Significant elevation of aqueous endothelin-1 in central retinal vein occlusion.

<h4>Purpose</h4>To investigate aqueous humor concentrations of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in patients with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) compared with patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and a normal control group.<h4>Methods</h4>A total 80 subjects were inclu...

After IVB, the mean aqueous level of ET-1 was 3.4±1.9 pg/mL (0.5-6.9 pg/mL) in the CRVO group and 1.8±1.0 pg/mL (0.3-3.2 pg/mL) in the BRVO group (P = 0.008).
