Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Genetic risk factors in Finnish patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To study the genetic risk factors of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in the Finnish population using hospital‐based and large biobank cohorts. Methods We genotyped a cohort of 107 Finnish patients with FECD for the primary associated genetic risk factor, the TCF4 (CTG)>50 expansion, and studied their clinical phenotype.

The effect of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment on retinal oxygenation

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Little is known about the effects of retinal detachment on oxygen extraction from retinal vessels. The role of oxygen supply from the retinal vessels in a detached area has not previously been investigated in vivo in humans. Retinal oximetry is a non‐invasive measurement of retinal oxygen saturation.
