Abstract:Purpose: Mean ocular perfusion pressure (MOPP) is calculated as the difference between mean brachial arterial pressure (MBP; with a correction factor to compensate for differences in flow resistance and hydrostatic pressure between the arm and eye) and intraocular pressure (IOP). The main aim was to evaluate differences between the most used formulas to calculate MOPP and the effects that physical exercise may have in this parameter.
Methods: Fifteen physically active, healthy subjects (6 female, 24.07 ± 3.65 … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
