Gender‐inclusive language in midwifery and perinatal services: A guide and argument for justice
A recent focus in reproductive healthcare on “sexed language” reflects an ideology of unchangeable sex‐binary and fear of erasure, from both cisgender women and the profession of midwifery. In this paper, we highlight how privileging sexed language causes harm to all who birth—including pregnant cisgender women, trans, gender diverse, and non‐binary ...

ABSTRACT Background High myopia (HM) is a major risk factor for glaucoma. However, glaucomatous optic neuropathy is often undiagnosed owing to atypical structural alterations with axial elongation. Moreover, an algorithm to detect glaucoma in highly myopic eyes has not yet been reported.

Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a leading cause of vision loss, with an incidence of 1:2000. In this study of 50 Turkish patients, next‐generation sequencing identified pathogenic variants in 58%, including novel variants in six genes. This research enhances genetic understanding and supports improved diagnostics and treatments for IRDs ...

Early‐onset Marfan syndrome (eoMFS) is a rare disorder with atrioventricular valve insufficiency being the most severe symptom. We propose to regard eoMFS as a spectrum, ranging from a severe disorder life‐threatening already before or immediately after birth, to a disorder with a better survival rate, creating a window for atrioventricular valve ...

Genome-wide analysis points to roles for extracellular matrix remodeling, the visual cycle, and neuronal development in myopia [PDF]
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is the most common eye disorder, resulting primarily from excess elongation of the eye. The etiology of myopia, although known to be complex, is poorly understood. Here we report the largest ever genome-wide association study (43,360 participants) on myopia in Europeans.

This report described 27 novel subject with CDK13‐related disorders. Collecting the clinical and radiological data, we better define the phenotypic spectrum of this condition and we suggest a comprehensive clinical management. ABSTRACT In 2016, Sifrim and colleagues described the first group of patients carrying heterozygous pathogenic variants in ...

Lactate and Lactylation in AKI‐to‐CKD: Epigenetic Regulation and Therapeutic Opportunities
ABSTRACT Lactate is not only a byproduct of glycolysis, but is also considered an energy source, gluconeogenic precursor, signalling molecule and protein modifier during the process of cellular metabolism. The discovery of lactylation reveals the multifaceted functions of lactate in cellular metabolism and opens new avenues for lactate‐related research.

Can fundus features tell us something about 3D eye shape?
Abstract Purpose To determine whether imaging features derived from fundus photographs contain 3D eye shape information beyond that available from spherical equivalent refraction (SER). Methods We analysed 99 eyes of 68 normal adults in the UK Biobank. An ellipsoid was fitted to the entire volume of each posterior eye (vitreous chamber without the lens)
