Association of age with vessel densities in the DCP stratified by sex. a Whole measure area; b Parafovea; c Temporal; d Superior; e Nasal; f Inferior. The DCP vessel densities in most regions decreased linearly with age in males (blue band). On the other hand, the DCP vessel densities in all regions decreased non-linearly with age and remained stable or slightly declined after 50 years in females (red band). Models were adjusted for sex, education, current smoking status, current drinking status, body mass index, axial length, and signal strength index of optical coherence tomography angiography image.
