Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying gyrate atrophy: Why is the retina primarily affected?
Abstract Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina (GACR; OMIM #258870) is a rare early‐onset autosomal recessive disorder, caused by bi‐allelic pathogenic variants in the gene coding for ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) resulting in hyperornithinaemia.

The Choroid and Optical Coherence Tomography
The choroid is the most vascular tissue in the eye and it plays an important role in the pathophysiology of various common chorioretinal diseases such as central serous retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration and degenerative myopia.

Genome-wide analysis points to roles for extracellular matrix remodeling, the visual cycle, and neuronal development in myopia [PDF]
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is the most common eye disorder, resulting primarily from excess elongation of the eye. The etiology of myopia, although known to be complex, is poorly understood. Here we report the largest ever genome-wide association study (43,360 participants) on myopia in Europeans.

Where the Weather Comes From [PDF]
When Andreas Malm observed that “not even the weather belongs fully to the moment,” he was looking forward from 2016, considering the cumulative impact of present emissions on “generations not yet born.” The reverse is also true: present storms have ...

Aqueous humour concentrations of HB‐EGF, EGF and VEGF‐A and axial length in humans
Abstract Purpose To investigate relationships between the intraocular concentrations of heparin‐binding epidermal growth factor (HB‐EGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF‐A) in dependence on axial length in humans. Design Clinical interventional cohort study.

Automatic lesion segmentation and Pathological Myopia classification in fundus images [PDF]
In this paper we present algorithms to diagnosis Pathological Myopia (PM) and detection of retinal structures and lesions such asOptic Disc (OD), Fovea, Atrophy and Detachment. All these tasks were performed in fundus imaging from PM patients and they are requirements to participate in the Pathologic Myopia Challenge (PALM). The challenge was organized

Myopia prediction for adolescents via time-aware deep learning [PDF]
Background: Quantitative prediction of the adolescents' spherical equivalent based on their variable-length historical vision records. Methods: From October 2019 to March 2022, we examined binocular uncorrected visual acuity, axial length, corneal curvature, and axial of 75,172 eyes from 37,586 adolescents aged 6-20 years in Chengdu, China.

Abstract The aim of this review was to evaluate the comparative efficacy of intravitreal anti‐vascular endothelial growth factor (anti‐VEGF) therapy for neovascular AMD. We searched 12 literature databases for randomised clinical trials (RCT) on anti‐VEGF therapy for neovascular AMD and extracted data on: change from baseline to 12 months in best ...

Morphological changes of sclera in rats with experimental myopia [PDF]
Background. The absence of adequate experimental myopia model is the actual problem in pathophysiological studying of the myopia progression. Studies of the chick eye have formed the basis for several hypotheses of myopic development.

On the moduli space of ricci flat metrics on a K3 surface [PDF]
We show that the moduli space of Ricci flat metrics of unit volume (including orbifold metrics) on a K3 surface is simply connected and that it has the same rational cohomology as the automorphism group of the K3 lattice $(-E_8)^{\oplus 2}\oplus U^{\oplus 3}$.
