The medical management of glaucoma
South African Family Practice, 2017 Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. The main characteristic features include optic disc cupping, visual field loss, and in most instances a raised intraocular pressure.

, 2016 Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is an important cause of irreversible blindness. In OAG, loss of retinal ganglion cells leads to damage of the optic nerve. This causes visual field loss and eventually blindness.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Microglial lipid metabolic dysfunction drives neurodegeneration in glaucoma. We found loss of LRP1 causes lipid accumulation and inflammation. We developed alpinetin‐loaded nanoparticles (AlpNPs) that bind LRP1, activate the PPARγ‐LXRα‐ABCA1 pathway to restore lipid homeostasis, promote an anti‐inflammatory phenotype, and protect retinal ganglion cells,

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Noonan Syndrome (NS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by typical facial dysmorphisms, short stature, congenital heart defects, and developmental delays. While variants in genes such as PTPN11, SOS1, and RAF1 account for most genetically confirmed cases, diagnosis is challenging due to phenotypic overlap ...

Mechanochromic Organic Materials: Molecular Mechanisms and Multidimensional Applications
Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.Mechanochromic (MC) organic materials change color in response to mechanical force. This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms (e.g., aggregation‐induced emission, AIE) and explores their multidimensional applications in sensors, anti‐counterfeiting, biomedical devices, and structural health monitoring, providing a roadmap for future smart ...

Driving Innovation: The Impact of National Health Policies on Optometry Research in East Asia
The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the optometric research landscape in three East Asian countries—China, Japan, and Korea—analysing how research trends align with each country's national health strategies. By evaluating published articles and reviews from national journals between 2006 March 2025, we identify key areas of focus, including paediatric ...
