Best‐corrected visual acuity and retinal thickness are associated with improved cortical visual processing in treated wet AMD patients [PDF]

Acta Ophthalmologica, 2014
AbstractPurposeIn response to anti‐VEGF treatment for wet AMD retinal anatomy and visual acuity is often remedied. In our previous study, we showed that visual evoked potentials (VEP) improve following successful anti‐VEGF treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate, how visual acuity and retinal thickness changes are reflected in VEP ...

Short-Term Impact of Bariatric Surgery on Best-Corrected Distance Visual Acuity and Diabetic Retinopathy Progression [PDF]

Obesity Surgery, 2018
The immediate impact of rapid glucose lowering induced by bariatric surgery on diabetic retinopathy (DR) progression remains unclear. We present 3-year changes in the best-corrected visual acuity and DR grade in a retrospective observational study of 32 morbidly obese patients (64 eyes) who underwent Roux-en-Y-gastric bypass surgery.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an
