Acute emotional stress as a trigger for intraocular pressure elevation in Glaucoma

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2019
Background Stress-induced activation of the sympathetic nervous system leads to a cascade of metabolic reactions. Emotional stress is a more specific form of stress in which the stressor is a psychological response to a situation subjectively perceived ...

Modulation of Presynaptic Inhibitory Retinal Circuits for Retinal Ganglion Cell Neuroprotection in Glaucoma [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced science
Ocular hypertension induces early hyperactivity in inner retinal inhibitory circuitry before substantial retinal ganglion cell loss. Sustained pharmacological inhibition of GABAergic/glycinergic neurotransmission and Vgat‐targeted Lin28 expression suppress this hyperactivity and improve RGC survival without reducing intraocular pressure. These findings

Biallelic PAX6 Variants in an Adult With Severe Microphthalmia and Preserved Intellectual Function

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT PAX6 encodes a dosage‐sensitive transcription factor that is essential for eye development. Heterozygous PAX6 disease is well characterized, but biallelic disease is extremely rare and has been associated with anophthalmia, severe brain malformations, and perinatal lethality.

Cost–benefit analysis of screening programme for diabetic retinopathy in Bulgaria

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Late‐diagnosed diabetic retinopathy (DR) is difficult and expensive to treat. Screening programmes can identify the disease early and reduce the costs of its future treatment. This study aims to analyse the cost–benefit of screening programmes for DR.

Vocational and Educational Outcomes in Adults With Sturge–Weber Syndrome: Preliminary Results From a Clinical Needs Assessment

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The clinical presentation of Sturge–Weber syndrome (SWS) is highly variable, with seizures during infancy and co‑occurring neurodevelopmental conditions commonly reported. Although these features are known to affect childhood functioning, their relationship to adult vocational and educational outcomes remains poorly understood.
