Microneedle-Facilitated Intradermal Proretinal Nanoparticle Delivery
Topical retinoid treatments stimulate biological activities in the skin. The main physical barrier, which limits the efficacy of transdermal drug delivery, is the stratum corneum.

A modified approach to the measurement problem: Objective reduction in the retinal molecule prior to conformational change [PDF]
A new analysis of the measurement problem reveals the possibility that collapse of the wavefunction may now take place just before photoisomerization of the rhodopsin molecule in the retinal rods. It is known that when a photon is initially absorbed by the retinal molecule which, along with opsin comprises the rhodopsin molecule, an electron in the ...

Exploiting the Transferability of Deep Learning Systems Across Multi-modal Retinal Scans for Extracting Retinopathy Lesions [PDF]
Retinal lesions play a vital role in the accurate classification of retinal abnormalities. Many researchers have proposed deep lesion-aware screening systems that analyze and grade the progression of retinopathy. However, to the best of our knowledge, no literature exploits the tendency of these systems to generalize across multiple scanner ...

Retinal micro-vascular and aortic macro-vascular changes in postmenopausal women with primary hyperparathyroidism [PDF]
Aim of the study was to evaluate the micro and macro-vascular changes in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) compared to controls. 30 postmenopausal PHPT women (15 hypertensive and 15 normotensive) and 30 normotensive controls underwent ...

We describe a case of a 65-year old man diagnosed with retinal vasoproliferative tumour secondary to posterior uveitis. The fluorescein angiography shows an interesting meteor-like leak emanating from the tumour and rising towards the superior retina in the later frames of the angiogram.
