Doença Ocular Diabética
Open accessAbstract
A diabetes mellitus é uma doença metabólica crónica caracterizada por uma hiperglicémia mantida, o que leva a complicações macro e microvasculares. O olho é um dos principais órgãos atingidos nesta patologia e a retinopatia diabética a mais conhecida complicação microvascular e a principal causa de cegueira em indivíduos em idade activa. Todavia, a doença ocular diabética não se caracteriza apenas pela retinopatia diabética. Outras manifestações oculares importantes da diabetes mellitus são a catarata, o glaucoma, aneuropatia óptica isquémica, as parésias óculo-motoras e as erosões queráticas. Neste artigo de revisão destacamos a retinopatia diabética como a mais importante e característica complicação da diabetes mellitus, mas também as complicações menos conhecidas, com o objectivo de alertar e sensibilizar médicos não-oftalmologistas que lidam com indivíduos diabéticos, de modo a promover o diagnóstico e tratamento atempados destas alterações visualmente debilitantes.Palavras-chave: Complicações da Diabetes; Diabetes Mellitus; Retinopatia Diabética.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
