Biomarkers to predict outcomes in diabetic foot ulcers
Studies attempting to predict the healing outcome of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have investigated various biological materials and recovered molecules that may aid in discriminating wounds that will heal and those that will not heal. This graphical abstract captures the commonly studied classes of biomarkers in the context of DFUs.

Abstract Purpose The prevalence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is low in Greenland. Factors underlying the low prevalence may potentially protect against the development of DR. Comparing Greenlandic and Danish populations, this register‐based study explored differences in risk factors that may explain differences in DR prevalence.

Infection control in the brain and the eye
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...
