Risk of open angle glaucoma due to tumor necrosis factor alpha gene polymorphisms

Electronic Physician, 2016
Introduction: Axonal degeneration and retinal ganglion cell apoptosis in glaucoma is associated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), which is an important pro-inflammatory cytokine.

Prognostic factors of optical coherence tomography angiography in intermediate and advanced primary open‐angle glaucoma: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Conventional optical coherence tomography (OCT) has a floor effect in patients with severe visual field loss, such as seen in advanced primary open‐angle glaucoma (POAG). OCT angiography (OCTA) does not suffer from such a floor effect. However, which OCTA parameters are most useful for monitoring longitudinal progression is unclear.

Protein misfolding and mitochondrial dysfunction in glaucoma

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Elevated intraocular pressure caused by restricted outflow of the aqueous humor leads to the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons.

Impact of mono‐ or multitherapy on ocular surface health and quality of life after 5 years of follow‐up in the Glaucoma Intensive Treatment Study (GITS)

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To evaluate the impact of initial mono‐ versus multitherapy on the ocular surface and related quality of life after 5 years follow‐up in the Glaucoma Intensive Treatment Study (GITS). Method The study included patients with primary open‐angle glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma who completed 5‐year follow‐up in GITS.

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.

The role of the local and general somatic factors for the open-angle glaucoma development in patients with eye manifestations of pseudoexfoliation syndrome

Офтальмохирургия, 2013
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) is one of the best known triggers of glaucoma. The development of the open-angle glaucoma only in some patients with the PEX with definite local and general risk factors requires a further research. Purpose.
