  1. Values are the median [interquartile range]. BRVO = branch retinal vein occlusion; VEGF = vascular endothelial growth factor; IL-6 = interleukin-6; MCP-1 = monocyte chemotactic protein-1; soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 = sICAM-1; soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 = sVEGFR-2.
