Association between periodontitis and exudative retinal detachment: A population‐based cohort study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To investigate whether periodontitis, a common bacterial‐induced inflammatory condition, serves as a risk factor for exudative retinal detachment (ERD), which results from fluid entering the subretinal space due to damage to the retinal pigment epithelium or leaky intraocular vessels, typically associated with inflammatory ...

Nudix hydrolase 15 deficiency and azathioprine toxicity in a liver transplant recipient: A case report

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Thiopurines, such as azathioprine (AZA), are among the immunosuppressants used to prevent allograft rejection. Thiopurines are metabolized by thiopurine S‐methyltransferase (TPMT) and nudix hydrolase 15 (NUDT15) enzymes, and their functions are highly influenced by genetic variation. We present a 6‐year‐old female with recurrent acute cellular

Rethinking Age Limits in Oncoplastic Breast Surgery: Long‐Term Outcomes of Oncoplastic Surgery in Elderly Patients

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Methods Although OBS is a well‐established approach, evidence regarding its long‐term safety and outcomes in older women remains limited. We performed a retrospective analysis to identify patients ≥ 60 years who underwent OBS for breast cancer between 2001 and 2014.

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 ...

LPCAT3 as a Potential Drug Target for Ultraviolet Radiation–Induced Cataract: Insights From Multiomics Analysis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is a major risk factor for cataract development, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this process, particularly the involvement of regulated cell death pathways such as ferroptosis, remain unclear. Transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses were performed on lens tissues from UVB‐induced cataract rat ...
