Uneven Meibomian Gland Dropout in Patients with Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and Demodex Infestation
The purpose of this study was to compare the differences between uneven meibomian gland (MG) atrophy with and without Demodex infestation based on the index of uneven atrophy score (UAS). In this retrospective cohort study, 158 subjects were recruited, including 66 subjects in the Demodex-positive MGD group, 49 subjects in the Demodex-negative MGD ...

Repeatability of keratometry depending on tear film osmolarity
Abstract Purpose To determine the repeatability of keratometry and astigmatism measurements of patients depending on the tear film osmolarity using three different devices. Methods In this study, 97 eyes of 97 patients with a mean age of 64.92 ± 12.07 years received three repeated measurements with the IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany),

Molecular Basis and Clinical Spectrum of WNT10A‐Related Oligodontia
Cellular Mechanism behind WNT10A phenotypes. ABSTRACT WNT10A mutations, a major genetic determinant of dental agenesis and ectodermal dysplasia, exert profound effects on craniofacial development. Although classified as rare disorders, these mutations account for more than half of oligodontia cases, reflecting their critical role.
