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.
In the present study, Thirty-six Class patients II (A condition in which the upper jaw is larger than the lower jaw) were randomly selected and assigned to one of two groups based on their maturation stage: the pre-pubertal group (18 patients, mean age 9.15 ± 1.5 years) and post-pubertal group (18 patients, mean age 16.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine whether the orthopedic forces of rapid maxillary expansion cause significant quantitative changes in the cranial and the circummaxillary sutures.
Methods: Twenty patients (mean age, 12.3 ± 1.
Objectives: To investigate the skeletal and dental changes induced by rapid maxillary expansion, using computed tomography (CT) scans and three-dimensional (3-D) reconstructed images.
Methods: Twenty patients (Mean age: 12.3 +/- 1.
