Triggered Calcium Lightning Programs Cochlear Development

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Summary: Before the onset of hearing, the developing inner ear generates spontaneous calcium signals that are thought to guide maturation. In this study, we discovered a rapid and widespread calcium flash—dubbed “Ca2+ lightning”—originating from supporting cells beneath the sensory hair cells, which triggers coordinated calcium waves across the entire ...

Bio‐inspired vision: From principle, material architectures to system‐level integration

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the development and mechanism of electronic and ionic bio‐inspired vision devices respectively. Then, it explores the impact of structure on bio‐inspired visual performance from the scale of intrinsic materials and device. Finally, it concludes that only by combining advanced software and technology can more complex vision ...

Optic Nerve Thickness Assessed by Ocular Ultrasonography in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with various ocular complications, yet ultrasonographic evaluation of optic nerve thickness and its relationship with nocturnal hypoxemia remains poorly understood. This study aimed to evaluate optic nerve thickness and globe dimensions using ocular ultrasonography in patients with different ...

Retinal Ganglion Cell Loss in Diabetes Associated with Elevated Homocysteine

open access: yes, 2009
A number of studies have suggested that homocysteine may be a contributing factor to development of retinopathy in diabetic patients based on observed correlations between elevated homocysteine levels and the presence of retinopathy.

Orbital Lymphatic Malformations Are Associated With Intracranial Vascular Anomalies

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In this retrospective series, all seven patients with orbital lymphatic malformations had intracranial vascular anomalies consistent with cerebrofacial venous metameric syndrome and hotspot PIK3CA variants identified through tissue‐based sequencing. Five patients treated with alpelisib experienced symptom improvement within 6 months.
