Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

A Bruchs membrane (BrM) mimic based on aged decellularized BrM was developed and differentially expressed proteins in aged dECM‐BrM that may provide specific biochemical cues fundamental to model AMD in vitro were identified. RPE culture on aged dECM‐BrM developed certain AMD‐like features including reduced TEER and expression of drusen components ...

Abstract Purpose Pregnancy induces significant changes in the body, including increased peripheral and choroidal blood perfusion and an increased systemic corticosteroid level. Here, we systematically reviewed the evidence on pregnancy as a risk factor for developing central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and conducted a meta‐analysis to obtain a ...
