The Molecular Basis of Retinal Dystrophies in Pakistan [PDF]

open access: yesGenes, 2014
The customary consanguineous nuptials in Pakistan underlie the frequent occurrence of autosomal recessive inherited disorders, including retinal dystrophy (RD). In many studies, homozygosity mapping has been shown to be successful in mapping susceptibility loci for autosomal recessive inherited disease.

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

Inherited retinal dystrophies [PDF]

open access: yesPaediatrics and Child Health, 2020
Abstract Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRD) are a diverse group of progressive blinding genetic diseases that can present from birth through to late middle age. Symptoms include loss of night vision, visual field, colour, and central acuity. Sophisticated imaging modalities and electrophysiology permit genotype–phenotype correlations.

The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation

open access: yesActa 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.

Minocycline and bone marrow–derived mononuclear cells as potential therapeutics for hereditary retinal degenerations

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess in Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) rats if the combination of two previously documented neuroprotective strategies: minocycline administration and bone marrow–derived mononuclear cells (BM‐MNCs) intravitreal transplantation, offers enhanced neuroprotection compared with each treatment alone.

Revised Swedish visual field standards for a driver's licence: Threshold perimetry as a predictor of eligibility according to the current Swedish and current Norwegian suprathreshold standards

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To explore whether threshold perimetry can predict fulfilment of the current Swedish and current Norwegian Esterman perimetry standards for Group 1 driver's licence, and differences in compliance between the former and current Swedish visual field standards.

Clinical disorders affecting mesopic vision

open access: yes, 2006
Vision in the mesopic range is affected by a number of inherited and acquired clinical disorders. We review these conditions and summarize the historical background, describing the clinical characteristics alongside the genetic basis and molecular ...

Long-term observation of retinal dystrophy genetically diagnosed as ROSAH syndrome

open access: yesJFO Open Ophthalmology
Purpose: To report a case of ROSAH syndrome (retinal dystrophy, optic nerve edema, splenomegaly, anhidrosis and headache) that was diagnosed by genetic analysis.

Outer retina analysis by optical coherence tomography in cone-rod dystrophy patients

open access: yes, 2013
Purpose: To analyze the outer retinal layers using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in patients with cone-rod dystrophy.Methods: The diagnosis of cone-rod dystrophy was determined by primary cone involvement or concomitant loss of ...
