An update on the landscape of collagen bioactive fragments
The remodeling of the extracellular matrix releases collagen bioactive fragments, which exert molecular functions and regulate numerous biological processes via several signaling pathways. Here, we summarize the latest findings describing the roles of major bioactive fragments from collagens I, IV, VI, and XVIII in various physiological and ...

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

ABSTRACT Introduction Real‐time continuous glucose monitoring (rt‐CGM) systems are associated with reductions in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and hypoglycemic events compared with self‐monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG). This analysis aimed to assess the cost‐effectiveness of rt‐CGM compared with SMBG in the management of people with T2D who require ...

Combining oral sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors with reduced intravitreal injections of anti‐vascular endothelial growth factor showed potential efficacy for mild diabetic macular edema. ABSTRACT Aims To investigate the potential of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) as a less invasive treatment option for mild diabetic macular

Treatment of Pseudophakic Cystoid Macular Oedema
Cystoid oedema of macula is the most frequent problem following non-complicated cataract surgery, which leads to weakening of visual acutity. We have studied the treatment outcomes of the topical therapy with corticosteroids and nonsteroid antirheumatics during prospective randomized study in comparison with orally applied acethazolamide.

An eye on long‐duration spaceflight: Controversies, countermeasures and challenges
Abstract Space flight‐associated neuroocular syndrome (SANS) is a consequence of long‐duration space flight and is detected in two‐thirds of astronauts. In‐flight, this can cause a change in the refraction of the eyes, requiring graded hypermetropic ‘superfocus adjustable’ glasses, optic nerve head oedema and choroidal folds.
