Article Synopsis
  • Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) helps visualize the retinal blood vessels, making it crucial for identifying diabetic retinopathy features.
  • The study focused on using OCTA to find early biomarkers that can indicate how well patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) respond to treatment with intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR).
  • Results showed that good responders had better visual acuity, thinner central macular thickness, and higher foveal vascular density compared to poor responders, suggesting these factors could help predict treatment outcomes.

Aims: This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of dietary citronellol, thymol, and trans-cinnamaldehyde (CTC) essential oils blend on broilers' growth performance, immunity, intestinal microbial count, gut integrity, and resistance against Clostridium perfringens utilizing the necrotic enteritis (NE) challenge model.

Methods And Results: A total of 200 Ross 308 male broiler chicks received either a control diet or diet supplemented with three graded levels of CTC blend, including 300, 600, and 900 mg of CTC blend/kg diet and experimentally infected with C. perfringens strain at 23 days of age.

Background: Meat products are widely recognized as substantial sources of protein derived from animals. Biogenic amines (BAs), naturally occurring toxins, are generated via the metabolism of specific amino acids by a vast array of microorganisms, including pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains.

Aim: The aim of this study was to ascertain the quantity of BAs produced in five meat products that are commercially available in Egypt.

Objective: To assess retinal and choroidal thickness changes in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).

Background: CKD is a devastating health trouble. The eye and the kidney share similar structural and genetic pathways, so that kidney disease and ocular disease may be closely linked.
