Evaluation of quantitative muscle MRI and an intelligent phenotyping housing system as advanced phenotyping methods in a mouse model of calpain 3‐deficient muscular dystrophy

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We applied quantitative MRI of the lower limb and automated home‐cage phenotyping to a mouse model of calpainopathy to detect early disease changes. At 15 months, calpain 3‐deficient mice showed increased water T2 values correlating with immune cell infiltration in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles, while assessment of motor activity revealed only ...

Revised Swedish visual field standards for a driver's licence: Threshold perimetry as a predictor of eligibility according to the current Swedish and current Norwegian suprathreshold standards

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To explore whether threshold perimetry can predict fulfilment of the current Swedish and current Norwegian Esterman perimetry standards for Group 1 driver's licence, and differences in compliance between the former and current Swedish visual field standards.

Genetic risk factors in Finnish patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

open access: yesActa 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.

Corneal transplantation: Restoring sight to the blind

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Corneal blindness is one of the leading causes of vision loss worldwide. Transplantation of the cornea can restore vision and make blind patients see again. Corneal transplant surgery has undergone major evolution in recent decades with the advent of minimally invasive lamellar surgical approaches such as DMEK and DALK.

Genetic Analysis of Corneal Dystrophies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Corneal disease is a major cause of global blindness accounting for around 2% of severe visual impairment in the UK. Corneal dystrophies are a group of rare, bilateral conditions with a genetic basis.

Corneal distrophy Groenow-i [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
We are talking about corneal dystrophy if there is clouding of its media without them being inflamed beforehand. Corneal dystrophies are diseases that affect the cornea, they are genetic diseases and most of them are autosomal dominant, bilateral and ...

Dystrophia Smolandiensis is characterized by a novel NQO1 variant and a distinct phenotype from COL17A1‐associated epithelial recurrent erosion dystrophy

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To determine the molecular cause of the two epithelial recurrent erosion dystrophies, Dystrophia Smolandiensis and Dystrophia Helsinglandica, and to identify phenotypic differences between the two conditions. Methods DNA samples and clinical data from structured interview records were obtained from the Swedish families in which ...

Molecular genetics and genotype-phenotype correlation of inherited corneal dystrophies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Corneal dystrophies are a group of inherited, primarily monogenic, disorders that compromise the transparency of the cornea and cause visual impairment. A large cohort, consisting of 191 corneal dystrophy probands, was recruited to the study with the aim
