Article Synopsis
  • Transforming atmospheric water vapor into liquid can help provide water in dry areas for drinking, thermal management, and hydrogen production.
  • Current methods are slow and rely on solid materials, while this new approach uses a liquid salt solution for capturing water, making the process more efficient.
  • The proposed method utilizes a hydrogel membrane for rapid water capture, showing potential to supply enough water for two to three people per square meter in arid conditions.

Purpose: To evaluate outer retinal organization in normal subjects and those using hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) with ultrahigh resolution visible light optical coherence tomography (VIS-OCT).

Methods: Forty eyes of 22 adult subjects were recruited from a tertiary care retina practice including controls (20 eyes, 12 subjects, mean age 40±22yrs, mean logMAR BCVA 0.19, 90% female) and subjects with a history of HCQ use (20 eyes, 10 subjects, mean age 62±17yrs, mean logMAR BCVA 0.

Objective: To explore participant-level biological attributes and scan-level methodological attributes associated with retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness variability in a population-based sample of elderly United States adults.

Design: Cross-sectional analysis using data from the Framingham Heart Study.

Participants: One thousand three hundred forty-seven eyes from 825 participants with ≥1 OCT scan and axial length data were included.

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides micron level resolution of retinal tissue and is widely used in ophthalmology. Millions of pre-existing OCT images are available from research and clinical databases. Analysis of this data often requires or can benefit significantly from image registration and reduction of speckle noise.
