Association between metabolic syndrome, macular structures and retinal vascular calibres in the Northern Finland Birth Cohort Eye Study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We aimed to evaluate the association of metabolic syndrome (MetS) with macular thickness and retinal vascular calibres in the population‐based cohort (Northern Finland Birth Cohort). Methods The population of 2242 individuals was divided into MetS (n = 344) and control groups (n = 1898).

Association of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) Thickness with Smoking Using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in Pakistani Population

Pakistan Journal of Medicine and Dentistry
Background: Smoking has multisystem effects on human body due to hypoxia and systemic inflammation, which it produces. This contributory effect is observed in ocular tissues as well. The aim of the study was to evaluate retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL)

Interpreting the structure–function relationship in high myopia‐associated glaucoma: A review

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Visual field (VF) interpretation in high myopia‐associated glaucoma (HMG) is challenging due to frequent structure–function discordance and coexisting myopia‐related changes. These changes may reduce the reliability of conventional structure–function mapping and increase the risk of misclassifying non‐glaucomatous VF abnormalities as ...

Discovery of PHB1 as a Novel Candidate Gene in Dominant Optic Atrophy

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
A heterozygous PHB1 missense variant (p.Ser147Phe) segregates with autosomal dominant optic atrophy in a multi‐generation family. Structural and cellular analyses suggest altered mitochondrial dynamics, identifying PHB1 as a novel candidate gene for hereditary optic neuropathy. ABSTRACT Hereditary optic neuropathies comprise a genetically heterogeneous

The technical and practical implementation of fundus photography in equids

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Fundus photography is an important diagnostic tool in human and veterinary medicine. Advances in research are increasing its accessibility in human medicine. However, there is a lack of studies on modern fundus photography in animals, particularly in horses. Objectives To assess the use of a portable fundus camera developed for human

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.
