Diabetic retinopathy in Greenland and Denmark—Can differences in risk factors explain the lower prevalence in Greenland?

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The prevalence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is low in Greenland. Factors underlying the low prevalence may potentially protect against the development of DR. Comparing Greenlandic and Danish populations, this register‐based study explored differences in risk factors that may explain differences in DR prevalence.

Non‐physician delivered intravitreal injection service: A systematic review of safety, implementation, training and patient experience

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The global demand for intravitreal anti‐vascular endothelial growth factor (anti‐VEGF) therapy continues to rise, straining ophthalmic capacity worldwide. Task shifting from physicians to trained non‐physician healthcare professionals has emerged as a potential strategy to expand service delivery.

The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract After more than 50 years, there still remains a challenge and an interest to know more as well as extend and deepen our understanding of the small rapid wavelets, the oscillatory potentials (OPs), of the electroretinogram (ERG) and the neuronal adaptation of the retina.
