Regularly scheduled intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) injections are essential to maintaining and/or improving many ocular conditions including: neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), diabetic retinopathy, and retinal vein occlusions with edema (RVO). This study aims assess the effect of unintended delays in anti-VEGF treatment during first wave COVID-19 pandemic. retrospective case series identified patients receiving regularly based on current...
Although numerous genetic loci have been associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) genome wide association studies, efforts are needed to identify the causal genes in these and link them into fundamental signaling pathways. Recent studies investigated mechanism of CAD gene SMAD3, a central transcription factor (TF) TGFβ pathway, investigating its role smooth muscle biology. In vitro human cells (HCASMC) revealed that SMAD3 modulates cellular phenotype, promoting expression...
To report the impact of prophylactic laser retinopexy in prevention retinal detachments (RDs) patients with Stickler syndrome.This was a retrospective, comparative case series syndrome from year 2000 to 2019. We compared rate RDs between individuals who did and not receive therapy. In an RD, we RD fellow eye without treatment.A total 95 eyes were identified. Fifty-four percent overall population female. The 26.7% among previous 4.6% retinopexy. A Cox proportional model revealed that...

Background and Objective: Stickler syndrome is the most common inherited cause of pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. The purpose this study was to survey surgeon preferences for prophylactic treatment patients. Study Design: A voluntary, anonymous 27-question developed by RedCap distributed Association Pediatric Retinal Surgeons. on March 17, 2021. Results were tabulated April 12, 2021 in Microsoft Excel. All surveys returned included. Results: Thirty-four (76% response rate)...

The hexane extract of Petiveria alliacea increased the phagocytotic index human granulocytes from 4.0 to 6.2, while a cyclohexane–methanol fraction gave maximum value 5.6 at 0.5 mg/mL. These values were not significantly different (p <0.05) modified immunostimulatory dipeptide: N-formyl-methionyl-phenylalanine same dose. Mature mice treated intraperitoneally with dose 23.0 mg/kg/day differential cell count (DCC) 8.66%±0.9% its medium polar counterpart 6.26%±0.9%. control was 3.18%±0.85%. One...
The purpose of this study is to review the neonatal and early childhood course children who were treated with intravitreal bevacizumab for APROP identify any long term limitations these face years after treatment.This retrospective consecutive case series reviewed both ophthalmologic pediatric medical records determine ocular neurologic function following treatment a single injection (IVB) APROP. Patient gestational age, average birth weight, gender, post-menstrual age (PMA) at time...
Purpose: We describe three different approaches for lens management in cases of metallic IOFBs involving the posterior segment. Methods: All consecutive segment IOFB from 2012 to 2023 at a single institution were included this retrospective case series. Surgical outcomes and surgical videos are presented. Results: A total 25 included. In 9 cases, there was no significant involvement, therefore not requiring extraction time removal. 8 with traumatic cataract, sparing anterior capsule...

Objective: Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) is the most common type of non-melanocytic ocular tumor. Conjunctival intraepithelial (CIN) a OSSN that be medically managed by either topical interferon alpha-2b (IFN α-2b), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), or mitomycin C. While paradoxical response to IFN α-2b in HIV population has been reported, we report case an immunocompetent individual. Methods: A 65-year-old female presents clinic with CIN. Results: She started on α-2b, resulting unexpected...
