Macular telangiectasia type 2 genetic risk variants associated with clinical characteristics in the Slovenian cohort

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Early diagnosis of macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel) remains challenging, and the contribution of genetic variation to its clinical heterogeneity is unclear. This study investigated associations between MacTel risk variants and clinical characteristics in a Slovenian cohort.

Endothelial activation of caspase-9 promotes neurovascular injury in retinal vein occlusion

Nature Communications, 2020
Retinal vein occlusion can cause blindness, and features neuronal dysfunction, inflammation and breakdown of vascular integrity. Here the authors report a non-apoptotic role of endothelial caspase-9 in regulating blood-retina barrier integrity and ...

Australian and New Zealand Glaucoma Society (ANZGS) Consensus on Interventional Glaucoma

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Traditional reactive ‘wait and see’ approaches in glaucoma management often result in unacceptable rates of permanent vision loss. This consensus defines a proactive ‘interventional glaucoma’ framework tailored for the Australian and New Zealand healthcare context. Methods A modified Delphi consensus process was utilised, consisting

Suppression of Retinal Neovascularisation by Tetrahedral Framework Nucleic Acids‐Resveratrol Via Dual Anti‐Angiogenesis and Anti‐Inflammation

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Resveratrol‐loaded tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs‐RSV) enable concurrent anti‐angiogenic and anti‐inflammatory therapy, enhancing ocular delivery and bioactivity. In hypoxia‐induced retinal neovascularisation, tFNAs‐RSV reduce neovascular lesions, vascular leakage and inflammatory infiltration by suppressing HIF‐1, p38 MAPK and NF‐κB p65 ...

Visual acuity and foveal thickness after vitrectomy for macular edema associated with branch retinal vein occlusion: a case series

BMC Ophthalmology, 2010
Background The mechanism by which vitrectomy improves macular edema in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion remains unclear, although intraocular levels of vascular endothelial growth factor have been suggested to influence the visual prognosis ...

Ocular Manifestations of Metabolic Syndrome: A Systemic Vascular Phenotype

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Context Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined by central obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidemia. MetS affects over one‐third of US adults. Beyond its cardiovascular burden, MetS has clinically relevant associations with ocular health and may contribute to a systemic vascular and neuro‐metabolic phenotype involving the retina,
