Comparative Study of Accommodative Function and Binocular Vision in Patients With Primary Angle‐Closure Disease

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The age‐related decline in accommodative function after the age of 50 years corresponds with an increasing incidence of primary angle‐closure disease (PACD); however, the interaction between this decline and PACD remains unexamined. Additionally, refractive error‐accommodation associations in elderly individuals, which are critical for PACD ...

Classification of pathology in diabetic eye disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Proliferative diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that can eventually lead to blindness. Early identification of this complication reduces the risk of blindness by initiating timely treatment.

Pan-retinal photocoagulation and other forms of laser treatment and drug therapies for non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy: systematic review and economic evaluation.

open access: yesHealth Technology Assessment, 2015
BACKGROUND Diabetic retinopathy is an important cause of visual loss. Laser photocoagulation preserves vision in diabetic retinopathy but is currently used at the stage of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).

Lysosome Evanescence Mediates Autophagic Flux Impairment in Glucose Imbalanced Environments

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Schwann cells (SCs) support axonal function and promote nerve regeneration. This study investigated how various glucose concentrations influence SC viability, oxidative stress, and autophagy, which contribute to diabetic neuropathy. RSC96 SCs were cultured under five glucose conditions (0, 2.5, 5.5, 50, or 100 mM) for 24, 48, and 72 h.

Sphingolipids as emerging mediators in retina degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The sphingolipids ceramide (Cer), sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), sphingosine (Sph), and ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) are key signaling molecules that regulate major cellular functions.

Glycemic Control, Animal Protein Intake, and the Risk of Diabetic Retinopathy Progression Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective glycemic control and food consumption play crucial roles in modulating diabetic retinopathy (DR) progression. This observational longitudinal study explored the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and dietary patterns and their associations with the risk and progression of DR among 369 individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Regional differences in the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy: a multi center study in Brazil

open access: yesDiabetology & Metabolic Syndrome, 2018
Background Diabetic retinopathy has a significant impact in every healthcare system. Despite that fact, there are few accurate estimates in the prevalence of DR in Brazil’s different geographic regions, particularly proliferative DR and diabetic macular ...

IGF-1 Regulates the extracellular level of active MMP-2 and promotes Müller glial cell motility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In ischemic proliferative retinopathies, Müller glial cells (MGCs) acquire migratory abilities. However, the mechanisms that regulate this migration remain poorly understood.

LPCAT3 as a Potential Drug Target for Ultraviolet Radiation–Induced Cataract: Insights From Multiomics Analysis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is a major risk factor for cataract development, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this process, particularly the involvement of regulated cell death pathways such as ferroptosis, remain unclear. Transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses were performed on lens tissues from UVB‐induced cataract rat ...
