Unilateral Optic Disc Neovascularization in a Patient with Optic Disc Pit Depending on Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy

open access: yesBezmiâlem Science
Optic disc pit is an excavation of the optic disc that usually develops congenital or rarely acquired, mostly located in the inferotemporal part of the disc. It is usually asymptomatic but sometimes might be symptomathic with maculopathy development.

Progressive optic nerve changes in cavitary optic disc anomaly: integration of copy number alteration and cis-expression quantitative trait loci to assess disease etiology

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2019
Background We performed clinical and genetic characterization of a family with cavitary optic disc anomaly (CODA), an autosomal dominant condition that causes vision loss due to adult-onset maculopathy in the majority of cases. CODA is characterized by a

Structural studies and functional engineering of NanX: an anhydro‐sialic acid transporter from Escherichia coli

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Optical Coherence Tomography of a Coexisting Optic Nerve Cyst and Optic Disc Pit: A Case Report

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2010
We describe a rare case of an optic pit located over the nasal portion of the disc that was independent of a coexisting optic nerve cyst. A healthy 35-year-old patient was referred to our clinic seeking alternative treatment options because his previous ...

Clinical Outcomes of SEEG‐Guided Radiofrequency Thermocoagulation in Children With Focal Drug‐Resistant Epilepsy: A Multicenter Real‐World Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Stereoelectroencephalography‐guided radiofrequency thermocoagulation (SEEG‐RFTC) has emerged as a safe and effective minimally invasive treatment for children with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy. Although evidence from real‐world studies remains limited, numerous pediatric cases have demonstrated promising outcomes. This retrospective

Optic Disc Imaging by Heidelberg Retinal Tomogram in Congenital Optic Disc Anomaly

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2004
We evaluated two cases of congenital optic disc anomaly with the Heidelberg Retinal Tomograph (HRT) that could be mistaken for glaucomatous optic disc. One was an optic disc coloboma with a visual field defect and the other had an optic disc pit without ...
