Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to measure retinal capillary blood flow velocity and acceleration in nonhuman primates and humans using two imaging techniques: erythrocyte mediated angiography (EMA) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
- The research involved conducting scans on 2 NHPs and 11 humans, measuring the velocity of blood flow in different types of capillary networks and assessing the effects of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) on this flow.
- Results showed that while baseline capillary blood flow velocities were different between species, increasing IOP significantly reduced blood flow velocity in capillaries, indicating that IOP affects retinal blood dynamics.
Objective: To characterize the effect of netarsudil 0.02% on episcleral blood flow in treatment-naive glaucoma suspect or ocular hypertension subjects.
Design: Prospective, unmasked, single-arm cohort study.
The Radar for Europa Assessment and Sounding: Ocean to Near-surface (REASON) is a dual-frequency ice-penetrating radar (9 and 60 MHz) onboard the Europa Clipper mission. REASON is designed to probe Europa from exosphere to subsurface ocean, contributing the third dimension to observations of this enigmatic world. The hypotheses REASON will test are that (1) the ice shell of Europa hosts liquid water, (2) the ice shell overlies an ocean and is subject to tidal flexing, and (3) the exosphere, near-surface, ice shell, and ocean participate in material exchange essential to the habitability of this moon.
