Endocrine Dysfunction in Open Angle Glaucoma
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.

The genetics of primary open angle glaucoma [PDF]
The advent of the discipline of molecular genetics over the past decade has led to a dramatic growth in our understanding of the genetics of a myriad of diseases. Ophthalmology has benefited greatly from this new technology, with significant advances in our knowledge about conditions as varied as aniridia and retinitis pigmentosa.1 2 Our understanding ...

Preclinical Testing of 3D Printed, Cell Loaded Hydrogel Based Corneal Substitutes on Rabbit Model
This study reports on 3D‐printed methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) implants designed to serve as corneal stroma substitutes. The implants are characterized for their transparency, mechanical strength, and cytocompatibility. In vivo tests on rabbits demonstrate successful integration, with histopathological analysis showing tissue regeneration, appropriate ...

Attention Based Glaucoma Detection: A Large-scale Database and CNN Model [PDF]
Recently, the attention mechanism has been successfully applied in convolutional neural networks (CNNs), significantly boosting the performance of many computer vision tasks. Unfortunately, few medical image recognition approaches incorporate the attention mechanism in the CNNs.

Fire‐related smoke inhalation‐induced acute lung injury (SI‐ALI) poses a significant public health risk, yet effective treatments are limited due to the lack of suitable models. This study developed a more realistic model of SI‐ALI using organ‐on‐a‐chip and organoid technologies, identified key molecules such as catechol‐O‐methyltransferase and ...
