The gestational age and weight of the infants, stay in the neonatal intensive care unit, duration of oxygen therapy, and detailed ophthalmologic examination findings were recorded in the study.\nFindings and Results: Of the 729 babies screened for ROP,122 (16.7%) of them had ROP. Infants with gestational age of \u226428 weeks constitute 3.3% of all infants and ROP rate was significantly higher than infants with older gestational age(PPPP=0.001),and duration of oxygen(O2) therapy(OR:34.309, 95% CI:2.043-28.235,P=0.004) were detected the independent risk factors for ROP.\nConclusion: Although infants with \u22641000 grams gestational weight and \u226428 weeks gestational age are more likely to have ROP, it is clear that screening for all infants at risk, regardless of gestational weight and age, is very important in preventing ROP-related vision loss. In addition, it is also recommended to control the duration of staying in neonatal intensive care unit and oxygen therapy to as little as needed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.37796\/2211-8039.1188","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,17]],"date-time":"2022-11-17T03:15:05Z","timestamp":1668654905000},"page":"38-42","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Frequency of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in infants screened for ROP: Two years follow-up results of a single center in Turkey"],"prefix":"10.37796","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Adem","family":"Ugurlu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Erzincan Binali Yildirim University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"12796","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,25]]},"container-title":["BioMedicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.biomedicinej.com\/cgi\/viewcontent.cgi?article=1188&context=biomedicine","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,11,4]],"date-time":"2026-11-04T11:26:51Z","timestamp":1793791611000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.biomedicinej.com\/biomedicine\/vol11\/iss3\/6"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,25]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,25]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.37796\/2211-8039.1188","relation":{},"ISSN":["2211-8039"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2211-8039","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,25]]}}}
