Assessment of Treatment Response in Patients With Scleromyxedema by the Double Modified Rodnan Skin Score

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Scleromyxedema (SMX) is a cutaneous mucinosis characterised by an abnormal accumulation of mucin in the skin and limited treatment options. Assessment of therapy response during treatment is challenging. Objectives Patients with SMX receiving high‐dose intravenous IVIg therapy were included to assess validity of the double modified ...

Comparative Study of Accommodative Function and Binocular Vision in Patients With Primary Angle‐Closure Disease

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The age‐related decline in accommodative function after the age of 50 years corresponds with an increasing incidence of primary angle‐closure disease (PACD); however, the interaction between this decline and PACD remains unexamined. Additionally, refractive error‐accommodation associations in elderly individuals, which are critical for PACD ...

Biomechanical, ultrastructural, and electrophysiological characterization of the non-human primate experimental glaucoma model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Laser-induced experimental glaucoma (ExGl) in non-human primates (NHPs) is a common animal model for ocular drug development. While many features of human hypertensive glaucoma are replicated in this model, structural and functional changes in the ...

Associations Between Initial Glycated Hemoglobin at Diabetes Diagnosis, Longitudinal Changes and Medication Effects, and the Severity and Progression of Sight‐Threatening Diabetic Retinopathy

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of vision impairment in patients diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Awareness of risk factors is necessary to reduce or prevent harmful effects of DR such as irreversible vision loss, and to help ensure early treatment.

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

open access: yesThe 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 ...
