Genetic risk factors in Finnish patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To study the genetic risk factors of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in the Finnish population using hospital‐based and large biobank cohorts. Methods We genotyped a cohort of 107 Finnish patients with FECD for the primary associated genetic risk factor, the TCF4 (CTG)>50 expansion, and studied their clinical phenotype.

Phase coupling between eye and brain pulsations is bidirectional and modulated by the parasympathetic system – An fMREye study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Physiological pulsations driven by cardiac, respiratory, and vasomotor activity are essential for solute transport within perivascular and perineural cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pathways that support brain and eye clearance systems. Previous studies have shown that parasympathetic blockade significantly reduces ocular pulsation power and

A prospective randomised comparison of two different stenting sutures when using the Baerveldt 101–350 aqueous shunt – Lab transition to clinical process

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The Baerveldt glaucoma drainage implant (BGI 101–350) is one of the most effective treatment options for managing refractory glaucoma. To mitigate early hypotony in non‐valved implants, intraluminal occluding sutures (IOSs) are commonly used.

The role of pain in Graves' orbitopathy: Associations with clinical activity and quality of life

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Pain is included in the clinical activity score (CAS) as an indicator of inflammatory activity in Graves' orbitopathy (GO), yet its clinical relevance has not been systematically evaluated. We therefore investigated the relationship between pain, other inflammatory signs and quality of life (QoL), and assessed the effect of intravenous

Childhood ocular safety after postnatal exposure to topical dexamethasone during retinopathy of prematurity screening

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Dexamethasone eye drops are being introduced off‐label to prevent progression of severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). We evaluated ophthalmologic outcomes in early childhood after postnatal topical dexamethasone exposure in pre‐term infants at a standardized follow‐up examination.
