Published in 2019 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-39526-2

Abstract: We examined the potential association of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) with the generation of normal-tension glaucoma (NTG), to explore possible relationships between intracranial pressure (ICP) and the presence of glaucoma, and to compare disc… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of Glaucoma"

DOI: 10.1097/ijg.0000000000000751

Abstract: Purpose: We investigated whether polymorphisms of the endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) gene are associated with normal tension glaucoma (NTG). We also investigated whether the eNOS polymorphisms are associated with NTG subgroups [NTG with and without… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Medicina"

DOI: 10.3390/medicina61040566

Abstract: Background and Objectives: Normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) is a subtype of primary open-angle glaucoma characterized by progressive optic nerve damage despite intraocular pressure (IOP) remaining within the normal range. The underlying pathophysiology of NTG remains incompletely… read more here.
