SUMOylation is a Translatable Target in Hypoxic MNPs Regulating Retinal Vasculopathy
During ischemic retinopathy/retinal vasculopathy, UBC9‐mediated SUMOylation in retinal macrophages enhances their pro‐angiogenic capacity via hypoxia‐induced SUMOylation of FUS at K327/K502. This modification suppresses FUS binding to the Vegfa mRNA 3’UTR, stabilizing transcripts and facilitating VEGFA production. Targeting UBC9 inhibition can serve as

A predictive score for retinopathy of prematurity in very low birth weight preterm infants [PDF]
Aims This study describes the development of a score based on cumulative risk factors for the prediction of severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) comparing the performance of the score against the birth weight (BW) and gestational age (GA) in order to ...

Survivorship of Individuals With Double Heterozygosity for Achondroplasia and Type 2 Collagenopathy
ABSTRACT Historically, double heterozygosity, or a diagnosis of two separate, dominant genetic conditions, was often thought to be lethal in individuals with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias. In previously published studies of individuals with dual dysplasia diagnoses of achondroplasia and type 2 collagenopathy, infants died of respiratory ...

The Effect of Treated Retinopathy of Prematurity in Premature Infants on Ocular Structural Outcomes [PDF]
Background and Objective: Retinopathy of prematurity is a complex developmental disease of retinal vessels in premature infants. Improvements in preterm care services are associated with an increased risk of advanced stages of retinopathy of prematurity.

Early Detection of Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) in Retinal Fundus Images Via Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is an abnormal blood vessel development in the retina of a prematurely-born infant or an infant with low birth weight. ROP is one of the leading causes for infant blindness globally. Early detection of ROP is critical to slow down and avert the progression to vision impairment caused by ROP.

Brazilian guidelines proposal for screening and treatment of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) [PDF]
Retinopathy of prematurity is one of the main causes of childhood blindness. Worldwide, there are more than 50,000 children blind due to retinopathy of prematurity. Visual impairment is a consequence of retinal detachment.
