Bio‐inspired nanophotonics: Structural color, chirality, and resonance metasurfaces

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
A butterfly‐wing‐inspired anisotropic plasmonic flatband resonant metasurface. Insets, photo of the butterfly, Sasakia charonda, and the SEM image of its wing scale (above); the SEM image of the metasurface (below). Abstract The dazzling colors of butterfly wings and hummingbird feathers are not painted with pigments, but crafted by nature's invisible ...

Bio‐inspired inorganic/organic semiconductor heterostructure synapses with UV–visible–NIR wavelength‐dependent responses for image recognition

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
This study presents a SnSe2/DNTT heterostructure photonic synaptic transistor that exhibits wavelength‐dependent photoresponses and synaptic plasticity. Operating with low energy consumption, the device extends spectral sensitivity from ultraviolet (UV) to near‐infrared (NIR) wavelengths, significantly enhancing neuromorphic computing performance.

Beyond Skin and Eyes: The Medical and Social Burden of Oculocutaneous Albinism in Africa: A Narrative Review

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a genetic disorder found worldwide, but its impact is particularly pronounced in the African continent. This results from both a higher prevalence and the persistent myths and superstitions surrounding the condition in many African communities.

Glycemic Control, Animal Protein Intake, and the Risk of Diabetic Retinopathy Progression Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective glycemic control and food consumption play crucial roles in modulating diabetic retinopathy (DR) progression. This observational longitudinal study explored the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and dietary patterns and their associations with the risk and progression of DR among 369 individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Low‐contrast visual acuity versus low‐luminance visual acuity in choroideremia

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Optometry, EarlyView., 2020
Clinical relevance Choroideremia is a progressive X‐linked inherited rod‐cone dystrophy. Patients present with nyctalopia and progressive visual field loss, but visual acuity remains well preserved early on. This study showed that low‐luminance visual acuity may be a useful clinical outcome measure during earlier disease stages.

Ex Vivo Evaluation of Poly(Solketal Acrylate) Nanoparticles for Intravitreal Drug Delivery to the Posterior Eye Segment

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Nile Red‐loaded poly(solketal acrylate) nanoparticles enable fluorescence tracking and exhibit nontoxic profiles in retinal cells. Enhanced cellular uptake and deep retinal penetration after intravitreal injection highlight their excellent potential for targeted ocular drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye.

Enhancing Understanding of the Visual Cycle by Applying CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing in Zebrafish

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018
During the vertebrate visual cycle, all-trans-retinal is exported from photoreceptors to the adjacent RPE or Müller glia wherein 11-cis-retinal is regenerated.

Homogenous Cell Transplantation Trials in Parkinson's Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The transplantation of homogenous cells has emerged as an investigational strategy for Parkinson's disease (PD), offering an alternative to symptomatic treatment. Objective We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to assess its clinical efficacy and safety.

Microscopic Observation of Proliferative Membranes in Fibrocontractive Retinal Disorders

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2019
Proliferative membranes of fibrocontractive retinal disorders are extensively studied from the morphological and evolutive point of view. Despite this, little is known of their cellular composition.
