Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Aniridia‐associated keratopathy: Clinical and molecular mechanisms of disease progression and emerging therapeutic targets

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Congenital aniridia is a rare genetic disorder primarily caused by pathogenic variants of the PAX6 gene. It leads to various panocular anomalies, including aniridia‐associated keratopathy (AAK). This review highlights recent insights into its pathogenesis, focusing on clinical staging, microstructural changes in the cornea and molecular ...

The effect of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment on retinal oxygenation

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Little is known about the effects of retinal detachment on oxygen extraction from retinal vessels. The role of oxygen supply from the retinal vessels in a detached area has not previously been investigated in vivo in humans. Retinal oximetry is a non‐invasive measurement of retinal oxygen saturation.

Biopsy of Iris and Anterior Chamber Tumours: Fine Needle, Minimally Invasive and Excision Techniques ‐ Review

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Several benign, inflammatory and malignant lesions can present as iris or anterior chamber masses, including iris naevi, cysts, adenomas, leiomyomas, nodules, vascular tumours, melanomas, metastases, as well as iris and pigment epithelium adenocarcinomas. Fortunately, benign iris lesions are much more common than malignant tumours and many can
