Comparative Evaluation of Four Stereotactic Radiosurgery Planning Approaches for Treatment of Posterior Choroidal Melanoma

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluated four stereotactic radiosurgery planning approaches for posterior choroidal melanoma (CM). Analysis of thirteen CM cases resulted in a clinically meaningful reduction in dose to the brain for Brainlab Elements modulated arcs (BE) and Varian Eclipse HyperArc modulated arcs (HA) compared to Brainlab iPlan dynamic conformal arc therapy

Optic Nerve Thickness Assessed by Ocular Ultrasonography in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with various ocular complications, yet ultrasonographic evaluation of optic nerve thickness and its relationship with nocturnal hypoxemia remains poorly understood. This study aimed to evaluate optic nerve thickness and globe dimensions using ocular ultrasonography in patients with different ...

Endocrine Dysfunction in Open Angle Glaucoma

Klinische Monatsblätter für Augenheilkunde, 2021
AbstractThe eye, like all organs, is exposed to the effects of the bodyʼs endocrine system. In addition, however, local branches of the endocrine system control important organ-specific functions, such as the production and drainage of aqueous humour.

Neurotrophic Signaling, Sleep Physiology, and Retinal Neuroprotection: Integrative Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications for Glaucoma

Sensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
Glaucoma is increasingly understood as a neurodegenerative disorder shaped by sleep and circadian physiology, not intraocular pressure alone. Sleep loss and obstructive sleep apnea suppress BDNF–TrkB neurotrophic signaling, impair sleep‐dependent glymphatic clearance, and trigger microglial neuroinflammation and vascular insult at the optic nerve head,

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Psilocybin in alcohol use disorder and comorbid depressive symptoms: Results from a feasibility randomized clinical trial

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Aims Psilocybin has emerged as a potential treatment for alcohol use disorder (AUD), but early efficacy data are inconsistent. Depression following alcohol detoxification significantly increases the risk of relapse. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of psilocybin‐assisted

The efficacy and safety of reducing intraocular pressure to single‐digit levels in Normal‐tension glaucoma: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This systematic review and meta‐analysis aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of further lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) to single‐digit levels in treated patients with progressive normal‐tension glaucoma (NTG). Methods A literature search was conducted in MEDLINE (via PubMed), Scopus and Web of Science. We selected studies that
