Giant cell arteritis: Its ophthalmic manifestations
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021 Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is the most important medical emergency in ophthalmology, because its most dreaded complication is visual loss, which is preventable if these patients are diagnosed early and treated immediately and aggressively.

Disease stratification in giant cell arteritis to reduce relapses and prevent long-term vascular damage [PDF]
, 2021 For years, clinicians and researchers working on giant cell arteritis have been battling with the conundrum of a disease that displays a short-term steroid responsiveness but is burdened by a remarkable risk of flares and chronic damage in the long term.

Model of inverse bleb growth explains giant vacuole dynamics during cell mechanoadaptation [PDF]
, 2022 Cells can withstand hostile environmental conditions manifest as large mechanical forces such as pressure gradients and/or shear stresses by dynamically changing their shape. Such conditions are realized in the Schlemm's canal of the eye where endothelial cells that cover the inner vessel wall are subjected to the hydrodynamic pressure gradients ...
