Retinal pathological neovascularization involves endothelial cells, pericytes, photoreceptor cells, ganglion cells, and glial cells, whose roles remain unclear. Using the Scissor algorithm, we found t...
As the global burden of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease continues to rise, there is an increased demand for improved imaging techniques for earlier detection of atherosclerotic plaques and new ...
We describe a case of acute neovascularization of the iris after uneventful cataract surgery....
A 78-year-old man visited our clinic for cataract surgery and glaucoma management....
The patient underwent bilateral laser iridotomy 4 years ago. On ocular examination, the best-corrected visual acuity was no light perception in the right eye and 20/100 in the left eye. We observed ps...
The patient underwent cataract surgery in the left eye without complications....
The day after surgery we observed 360° of neovascularization in the iris and aggravated hemi-CRVO with macular edema. Therefore, we administered intravitreal bevacizumab in the left eye, after which t...
Cataract surgery can rapidly aggravate hemi-CRVO and cause iris neovascularization, which is responsive to bevacizumab....
This study aimed to report eleven cases of non-neovascular pachychoroid disease with hyperreflective material (HRM) that occurred in Japanese patients....
A retrospective review of data from eleven patients who had non-neovascular retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) protrusion with HRM in the neurosensory retina between March 2017 and June 2022 was conduct...
All cases had RPE protrusion and HRM with dilated choroidal veins, which were characteristic of pachychoroid disease. However, none of the cases had macular neovascularization (MNV). In 9 eyes (81.8%)...
There are some cases of non-neovascular pachychoroid disorder with HRM, which might be a new entity of pachychoroid spectrum disease or an early stage of PPE or FCE. These cases should not be misdiagn...
We evaluated 1-year outcomes of loading phase treatment followed by maintenance treatment using a treat-and-extend (TAE) regimen with intravitreal brolucizumab for neovascular age-related macular dege...
We previously reported one-year results of a treat-and-extend (TAE) regimen with intravitreal brolucizumab for 68 eyes with treatment-naïve neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) associat...
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication of diabetes, and recent findings have shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) may be involved in its pathogenesis. Through bioinformatics analysis, ...
We used RT‒PCR to assess the expression levels of lncRNA ATP2B2-IT2 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in HRMECs under normal glucose (5.5 mmol/L) and high glucose (30 mmol/L) conditions. H...
RT‒PCR revealed that the expression levels of the lncRNA ATP2B2-IT2 and VEGF were greater in the HG group than in the NG group (P < 0.05). After silencing of the lncRNA ATP2B2-IT2, the expression of V...
LncRNA ATP2B2-IT2 may promote the proliferation, migration and neovascularization of HRMECs under high-glucose conditions....
To report the cumulative incidence and risk factors of second eye involvement after diagnosis of myopic macular neovascularization (MNV) in the first eye....
Retrospective analysis of longitudinal data from a tertiary hospital in the Netherlands....
Patients with high myopia (spherical equivalent [SE] ≤ - 6 diopters [D]), of European ethnicity, who were diagnosed with active MNV lesion in 1 eye between 2005 and 2018. Fellow eyes were free of MNV ...
Incidence rate and 2-, 5-, and 10-year cumulative incidences were calculated; hazard ratios (HRs) of second eye involvement were analyzed for potential risk factors using Cox proportional hazard model...
Incidence of second eye involvement after onset of myopic MNV in the first eye....
We included 88 patients over a period of 13 years with a mean age of 58 ± 15 years, mean axial length of 30 ± 1.7 mm and SE -14 ± 4 D at baseline. Twenty-four fellow eyes (27%) developed a myopic MNV ...
Our study of high myopes of European descent shows very similar incidence rates for second eye myopic MNV compared with Asian studies. Our findings substantiate the importance for clinicians to monito...
The authors have no proprietary or commercial interest in any materials discussed in this article....
To examine the role of CCL14 in the neovascularization process and vulnerability progression within carotid plaques by investigating the mechanism of CCL14 regulation of VEGF-A....
We first performed histological analysis and immunohistochemical staining of human carotid plaque tissue to detect the expression of CCL14, JAK2, STAT3 and VEGF-A. We next examined the protein express...
Histological and Western blotting analysis of human carotid plaque samples showed that the expression of CCL14 and VEGF-A was higher in the vulnerable plaques than in stable plaques. In the in vitro c...
In the human carotid plaques, CCL14 promotes angiogenesis by upregulation of VEGF-A via JAK2/STAT3 pathway and thus drives the progression of carotid plaques vulnerability....
To report the incidence and risk factors associated with ocular neovascularization (NV) in patients with central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO)....
This retrospective study included patients diagnosed with acute CRAO in a single tertiary center. Medical charts were reviewed for ocular NV occurrences. We analyzed systemic and ocular conditions on ...
Eighty-seven eyes were eligible for this study. Among these, 13 eyes had ocular NV after CRAO, with an incidence of 15%. The prevalences of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, history of stroke, chronic ...
CKD and glaucoma history were significant risk factors for developing ocular NV after CRAO, particularly among patients that underwent dialysis....
