Internal Limiting Membrane Flaps in Macular Hole Surgery

Ophthalmology Retina
Topic: To compare anatomic and visual outcomes of internal limiting membrane (ILM) flaps versus peeling in macular hole surgery, considering hole size, symptom duration, and different flap types. Clinical Relevance: The benefit of ILM flaps over standard ILM peeling in idiopathic full-thickness macular holes (iFTMHs) remains unclear.

Reorganization of Innate Immune Cell Lipid Profiles by Bioinspired Meroterpenoids to Limit Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Resolution pharmacology is an emerging strategy to tackle inflammatory pathologies. Bioinspired meroterpenoids induce a lipid mediator class switch toward inflammation resolution in vitro and in vivo by targeting key nodes in lipid mediator biosynthesis and neutral lipid dynamics.
