Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying gyrate atrophy: Why is the retina primarily affected?

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
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.

Scalable fabrication of bijel films via continuous flow slit-coating [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Nanocomposite membranes are an emerging filtration material in the production of clean water. Recently, the fabrication of porous nanocomposite membranes via solvent transfer induced phase separation (STrIPS) was introduced. During STrIPS, the phase separation of two immiscible liquids is arrested by the attachment of nanoparticles at the liquid-liquid

Impact of cataract surgery on patients receiving intravitreal therapy for retinal vein occlusion

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To assess clinical outcomes of cataract surgery in eyes treated with intravitreal injections for cystoid macular oedema (CMO) secondary to retinal vein occlusions (RVOs). Methods Eyes receiving intravitreal injections for CMO secondary to RVOs that underwent cataract extraction were identified from the Fight Retinal Blindness ...

Anatomical and functional outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy for inflammatory epiretinal membrane surgery in healed toxoplasmosis infection

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018
Epiretinal membrane over macula secondary to toxoplasmosis compromises vision. We describe the outcome of pars plana vitrectomy and epiretinal membrane removal after adequate treatment of acute infection.

Counterion density profiles at charged flexible membranes [PDF]

, 2004
Counterion distributions at charged soft membranes are studied using perturbative analytical and simulation methods in both weak coupling (mean-field or Poisson-Boltzmann) and strong coupling limits. The softer the membrane, the more smeared out the counterion density profile becomes and counterions pentrate through the mean-membrane surface location ...

Outliers of Treatment Frequency in Retinal Vein Occlusion: 24‐Month Comparative Analysis of Fight Retinal Blindness! Practitioners

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We aimed to describe a 2‐year outcome of eyes managed by practitioners benchmarked using a funnel plot by their frequency of treatment using vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors for naive retinal vein occlusion (RVO).

A white membrane beneath the inner limiting membrane of the retina in a 4-year-old child with ultrastructural evidence: a case report

BMC Ophthalmology, 2018
Background Epiretinal membranes (ERMs), secondary to retinal cell proliferation on the retinal surface, usually affect patients over 50 years of age but occur rarely in children. Here we report the case of a 4-year-old patient with a unilateral sub-inner

Lateral phase separation of confined membranes [PDF]

, 2010
We consider membranes interacting via short, intermediate and long stickers. The effects of the intermediate stickers on the lateral phase separation of the membranes are studied via mean-field approximation. The critical potential depth of the stickers increases in the presence of the intermediate sticker.

Second‐Generation (44‐Channel) Suprachoroidal Retinal Prosthesis: Surgical Stability and Safety During a 2‐Year Clinical Trial

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To assess the safety and stability profile of the suprachoroidal retinal prosthesis (ScRP) in participants with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) for 2 years from implantation. Methods Four participants, with advanced RP and bare‐light perception vision were enrolled in a prospective, single arm unmasked interventional clinical trial and ...

Spontaneous closure of a large traumatic macular hole

Oman Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Spontaneous closure of a large traumatic macular hole is a rare event. We report a case of a large traumatic macular hole in a 16-year-old that closed spontaneously following an epiretinal membrane formation.
