Nanostructured drug delivery systems for posterior segment eye diseases: Strategies to defy ocular barriers

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Efficient drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye has long been a challenging issue due to the complex ocular barriers. The review focuses on the promise held by nanoplatforms for barrier penetration and the key mechanisms involved, also highlighting their advantages in achieving efficient drug delivery and superior treatment of PSEDs ...

Mechanisms of macular edema

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2023
Macular edema is the pathological accumulation of fluid in the central retina. It is a complication of many retinal diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, retinal vascular occlusions and uveitis, among others. Macular edema causes decreased visual acuity and, when chronic or refractory, can cause severe and permanent visual impairment and blindness.

Hypertensive retinopathy in pre‐eclampsia and its association with disease severity and neonatal outcomes: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Pre‐eclampsia (PE) involves systemic endothelial dysfunction and microvascular injury, yet routine obstetric care lacks noninvasive readouts of maternal microvascular health. We evaluated whether hypertensive retinopathy (HR) detected during pregnancy is associated with maternal disease severity and adverse neonatal outcomes ...
