The phenotypic spectrum of syndromic optic atrophy associated with variants in : with reclassification of p.Val606Gly as a likely benign variant.

Introduction: Wolfram syndrome due to bi-allelic variants in and mono-allelic Wolfram-like syndrome have variable ocular and syndromic associations. In this report, eight patients are described.

Methods: A retrospective observational case series with detailed ophthalmic and systemic phenotyping, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and neuroimaging.

Remission of corneal and peripheral neuropathy after bariatric surgery in people with diabetes.

Purpose: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy can be detected using non-invasive in vivo confocal microscopy of the cornea (IVCM) and such abnormalities may precede the development of clinical neuropathy. The current study aimed to assess any progression or remission of corneal and peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing bariatric surgery.

Methods: People with known type 2 diabetes for at least five years and listed for bariatric surgery were recruited.

Corneal Nerve Changes Observed by In Vivo Confocal Microscopy in Patients Receiving Oxaliplatin for Colorectal Cancer: The COCO Study.

An objective method of early identification of people at risk of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is needed to minimize long-term toxicity and maximize dose intensity. The aims of the study were to observe corneal nerve microstructure and corneal sensitivity changes and peripheral neuropathy in patients receiving oxaliplatin, and to determine its association with corneal parameters at different stages of treatment and assess utility as non-invasive markers to detect and monitor peripheral neuropathy. Twenty-three patients scheduled to receive oxaliplatin chemotherapy with intravenous 5-FU for gastro-intestinal cancer were recruited and followed up with for 12 months.

Mortality after discharge from hospital following an episode of diabetic ketoacidosis.

Aims: The rate of inpatient mortality associated with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) has steadily decreased in recent decades. However, there remains a significantly increased outpatient death rate following an episode of survived DKA. We undertook this study to investigate the observed increase in mortality following an episode of DKA.

Corneal Confocal Microscopy in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: A Six-Year Longitudinal Study.

Purpose: The current study describes corneal nerve morphology using in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who were followed up for 6 years, and it examines the relationship between corneal parameters and metabolic control of glucose and peripheral neuropathy.

Methods: Sixty-two participants (37 with T1D and 25 control participants) were assessed in 2011 and 2017. Participants with bilateral cataract surgery or controls who developed diabetes were excluded.
