The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract After more than 50 years, there still remains a challenge and an interest to know more as well as extend and deepen our understanding of the small rapid wavelets, the oscillatory potentials (OPs), of the electroretinogram (ERG) and the neuronal adaptation of the retina.

Circulating angiogenesis‐related biomarkers in sickle cell retinopathy and maculopathy

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Sickle cell disease (SCD), encompassing genotypes such as HbSS and HbSC, leads to retinal complications such as sickle cell retinopathy (SCR) and maculopathy (SCM) through poorly understood mechanisms. This study explored associations of a panel of circulating angiogenesis‐related factors with SCR and SCM.
