Association of outer retinal and choroidal alterations with neuroimaging and clinical features in posterior cortical atrophy.

Background: Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) is a rare condition characterized by early-onset and progressive visual impairment. Individuals with PCA have relatively early-onset and progressive dementia, posing certain needs for early detection. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the association of alterations in outer retinal and choroidal structure and microvasculature with PCA neuroimaging and clinical features and the possible effects of apolipoprotein E(APOE) ε4 allele on outer retinal and choroidal alterations in participants with PCA, to detect potential ocular biomarkers for PCA screening.

Assessment of alterations in the retina and vitreous in pre- and post-COVID-19 patients using swept-source optical coherence tomography and angiography: A comparative study.

Ocular manifestations have been well recognized in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak. Several studies have detected ocular manifestations in patients after COVID-19. However, little is known about the retinal and vitreal alterations in patients before and after COVID-19 infection.

Assessment of Outer Retina and Choroid Using Swept Source Optical Coherence Tomography and Angiography in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis.

Background: For patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), both structure and microvasculature alterations in the inner retina have been investigated in several studies. However, little is known about the alterations in the outer retina and choroid. Hence, this study aimed to assess the outer retinal and choroidal changes in patients with MS with no history of optic neuritis (ON).

Double-Limb Graft Versus Single-Limb Graft Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction for Recurrent Patellar Dislocation: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials and Cohort Studies.

Background: The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the most important stabilizer of lateral dislocation of the patella. Single-limb (SL) and double-limb (DL) graft MPFL reconstructions have been increasingly used to treat recurrent patellar dislocations, but the clinical efficacy of SL versus DL graft MPFL reconstructions remains controversial owing to the inconsistent conclusions of previous studies.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of SL and DL graft MPFL reconstructions for patients with recurrent patellar dislocation by conducting a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials and cohort studies.
