Costello Syndrome and Ophthalmologic Issues: Unveiling the Unseen
ABSTRACT Costello syndrome (CS) is an ultra‐rare condition belonging to the RASopathies, a group of disorders characterized by aberrant RAS/MAPK pathway signaling, which is involved in ocular development and in some eye pathologies. However, only a few studies assessing the ophthalmic features of individuals with CS are available.

Functional deficits precede structural lesions in mice with high-fat diet-induced diabetic retinopathy [PDF]
Obesity predisposes to human type 2 diabetes, the most common cause of diabetic retinopathy. To determine if high-fat diet–induced diabetes in mice can model retinal disease, we weaned mice to chow or a high-fat diet and tested the hypothesis that diet ...

Autophagy in Diabetic Retinopathy [PDF]
Autophagy is an important homeostatic cellular process encompassing a number of consecutive steps indispensable for degrading and recycling cytoplasmic materials. Basically autophagy is an adaptive response that under stressful conditions guarantees the physiological turnover of senescent and impaired organelles and, thus, controls cell fate by various

Survivorship of Individuals With Double Heterozygosity for Achondroplasia and Type 2 Collagenopathy
ABSTRACT Historically, double heterozygosity, or a diagnosis of two separate, dominant genetic conditions, was often thought to be lethal in individuals with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias. In previously published studies of individuals with dual dysplasia diagnoses of achondroplasia and type 2 collagenopathy, infants died of respiratory ...

Retinopathy and Nephropathy in Type 1 Diabetic Patients – Association with Polymorphysms of Vitamin D-Receptor, Tnf, Neuro-D and Il-1 Receptor 1 Genes [PDF]
Retinopathy and nephropathy are common late type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) complications. In this study we investigated whether individual differences in 4 candidate genes significantly contribute to development and progression of late complications in ...

Pathological Evidence Exploration in Deep Retinal Image Diagnosis
Though deep learning has shown successful performance in classifying the label and severity stage of certain disease, most of them give few evidence on how to make prediction.

Longitudinal imaging of microvascular remodelling in proliferative diabetic retinopathy using adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscopy [PDF]
Purpose To characterise longitudinal changes in the retinal microvasculature of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) as exemplified in a patient with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) using an adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscope (AOSLO ...
