Macular Blood Flow Changes in Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion Examined by Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Variable Interscan Time Analysis - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35982475/
Purpose: To examine the relationship between changes in retinal blood flow and the recurrence of macular edema in eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). Methods: This observational study included...
Conclusions: In eyes with BRVO, OCTA VISTA facilitated the detection of retinal blood flow changes that might be predictive for the recurrence of macular edema.
Towards a better understanding of non-exudative choroidal and macular neovascularization
Source : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1350946222000738?via=ihub
Non-exudative macular and choroidal neovascularization (MNV and CNV) usually refers to the entity of treatment-naïve type 1 neovascularization in the ...
Conclusion: Based on these observations, this review also proposes a new theory about the origin and course of different sub-types of non-exudative MNV/CNV which can have different etiologies and pathways according to the clinical context of disease.
Characteristics of retinal pigment epithelium elevations preceding exudative age-related macular degeneration in Japanese - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35977528/
Introduction: Drusen and pigmentary abnormality are found as the hallmark to predict progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). In Asian populations, exudative AMD often appears in the absence of drusen...
Conclusions: There is a non-drusen type of exudative AMD that originates from small RPE elevations as well as SIRE.
Nuclear Receptor Atlases of Choroidal Tissues Reveal Candidate Receptors Associated with Age-Related Macular Degeneration - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35954227/
The choroid is a vulnerable tissue site in the eye, impacted in several blinding diseases including age related macular degeneration (AMD), which is the leading cause of central vision loss...
Conclusion/Relevance: Overall, these databases serve as useful resources establishing the influence of nuclear receptor signaling pathways on the outer vascular tissue of the eye, while providing a list of receptors, for more focused investigations in the future, to determine their suitability as potential therapeutic targets for diseases, in...
Choriocapillaris Flow Imbalance in Fellow Eyes in Age-Related Macular Degeneration - PubMed

1 Department of Ophthalmology, St. Luke's International Hospital, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Japan. 2 St. Luke's International University, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Japan. 3 Department of Ophthalmology, Keio University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan....
Conclusions: Neovascular AMD fellow eyes without MNV had reduced, heterogeneous, and imbalanced choriocapillaris flow, which may constitute early changes in neovascular AMD, although further studies are required.
