Evaluation of the progression of visual field damage in patients suffering from early manifest glaucoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: This retrospective study aimed to determine how often a perimetric examination should be carried out in order to identify visual field (VF) changes in patients with relatively early manifestation glaucoma.

The medical management of glaucoma

open access: yesSouth African Family Practice, 2017
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. The main characteristic features include optic disc cupping, visual field loss, and in most instances a raised intraocular pressure.

Open-angle glaucoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is an important cause of irreversible blindness. In OAG, loss of retinal ganglion cells leads to damage of the optic nerve. This causes visual field loss and eventually blindness.

Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing of Retina Reveals Nna1 Upregulation in Myopic Diabetic Retinopathy as a Protective Factor Against Diabetic Damage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates a schematic overview of the mechanistic pathways. The relationship between myopia and DR has long been of clinical interest. In diabetic mice, Nna1 expression is downregulated, whereas in diabetic mice with FDM, Nna1 expression is upregulated–particularly in Müller cells–accompanied by decreased vascular endothelial growth ...

A multiethnic genome-wide association study of primary open-angle glaucoma identifies novel risk loci

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a leading cause of irreversible vision loss, yet much of the genetic risk remains unaccounted for, especially in African-Americans who have a higher risk for developing POAG.

Alpinetin Nanoparticles Alleviate Optic Nerve Injury Induced by Acute Glaucoma via LRP1‐PPARγ Mediated Regulation of Microglial Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Microglial lipid metabolic dysfunction drives neurodegeneration in glaucoma. We found loss of LRP1 causes lipid accumulation and inflammation. We developed alpinetin‐loaded nanoparticles (AlpNPs) that bind LRP1, activate the PPARγ‐LXRα‐ABCA1 pathway to restore lipid homeostasis, promote an anti‐inflammatory phenotype, and protect retinal ganglion cells,

Nicotinamide Deficiency in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
PURPOSE To investigate the plasma concentration of nicotinamide in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). DESIGN Case-control study METHODS Plasma of 34 POAG individuals were compared to that of 30 age- and sex-matched controls using a semi-quantitative ...

Photothermal Transport for Guiding Nanoparticles Through the Vitreous Humor

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanosecond laser irradiation of the clinically approved dye indocyanine green (ICG) enables light‐guided nanoparticle transport within the vitreous humor. The combined use of ICG and pulsed laser illumination induces localized convection and thermophoresis, directing particles toward illuminated regions.
