Associations Between Initial Glycated Hemoglobin at Diabetes Diagnosis, Longitudinal Changes and Medication Effects, and the Severity and Progression of Sight‐Threatening Diabetic Retinopathy

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of vision impairment in patients diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Awareness of risk factors is necessary to reduce or prevent harmful effects of DR such as irreversible vision loss, and to help ensure early treatment.

Quantifying Dehydration Effects of Porcine Vocal Fold Attenuation With Optical Coherence Tomography

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The purpose of this study is to use optical coherence tomography (OCT) to characterize the effect of dehydration on the optical attenuation coefficient of porcine vocal fold (VF) tissue. The optical attenuation coefficient tissue decreased linearly with dehydration, dropping by approximately 0.08 mm−1 for every 1% increase in mass loss.
