The Interconnected World of Dermatology and Ophthalmology

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medicine is a dynamic field that constantly discovers new links between different specialties. Dermatology and Ophthalmology are two related branches of medicine, having many similarities and interactions. The skin and the eyes both encounter various environmental challenges, such as ultraviolet radiation, allergens, infections, and trauma ...

Preclinical Testing of 3D Printed, Cell Loaded Hydrogel Based Corneal Substitutes on Rabbit Model

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
This study reports on 3D‐printed methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) implants designed to serve as corneal stroma substitutes. The implants are characterized for their transparency, mechanical strength, and cytocompatibility. In vivo tests on rabbits demonstrate successful integration, with histopathological analysis showing tissue regeneration, appropriate ...

Post-operative complications of penetrating corneal keratoplasty in patients with anterior segment toxic syndrome secondary to cataract surgery

ABCS Health Sciences, 2020
Introduction: Toxic Anterior Segment Syndrome (TASS) after cataract surgery may cause severe corneal decompensation that compromises corneal transparency and may require penetrating corneal keratoplasty to improve visual acuity.

Exposing GAN-generated Faces Using Inconsistent Corneal Specular Highlights [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Sophisticated generative adversary network (GAN) models are now able to synthesize highly realistic human faces that are difficult to discern from real ones visually. In this work, we show that GAN synthesized faces can be exposed with the inconsistent corneal specular highlights between two eyes.

Corneal thickness and elevation maps computed from optical rotary scans [PDF]

J. Refract. Surg., 20, pp. S576-S580, (2004), 2004
Purpose: Recently the authors presented a technique that allows corneal thickness measurements along any meridian from optical sections obtained using a rotary scanning system. This paper presents 3-D mapping of the corneal thickness and topography of both corneal surfaces, obtained with the rotary system.

MEDIMP: 3D Medical Images with clinical Prompts from limited tabular data for renal transplantation [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Renal transplantation emerges as the most effective solution for end-stage renal disease. Occurring from complex causes, a substantial risk of transplant chronic dysfunction persists and may lead to graft loss. Medical imaging plays a substantial role in renal transplant monitoring in clinical practice. However, graft supervision is multi-disciplinary,

Corneal Cell Matrix‐Conditioned Amniotic Membrane with Improved Biochemical Properties and Corneal Wound Healing Potential: An In Vitro and In Vivo Study

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
In this research, the amniotic membrane is sought to be enhanced biologically by treating it with primary cultured corneal cells. The findings indicate that amniotic membranes conditioned with limbal stem cells serve as an effective wound dressing that mimics corneal tissue, offering better cell adhesion, and healing properties, paving the way for ...

Overexpression of MMPs in Corneas Requiring Penetrating and Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty. [PDF]

, 2019
PurposeMatrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) comprise a family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases involved in wound healing processes, including neovascularization and fibrosis. We assessed MMP protein expression levels in diseased corneas of patients requiring

Recommendations for the management of MPS IVA: systematic evidence- and consensus-based guidance. [PDF]

, 2019
IntroductionMucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA or Morquio A syndrome is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by deficiency of the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS) enzyme, which impairs lysosomal degradation of keratan ...
