Epidemiological studies found that the incidence of myopia was increasing year by year and the age of onset of myopia was showing a trend of affecting increasingly younger children. Reducing the occurrence of myopia and controlling the increase of myopia diopter have always been the focus of research on the prevention and control of myopia. Large randomized controlled clinical trials have found that outdoor activities can effectively reduce the incidence of myopia and delay the progression of myopia.

Lanthanum (La)-based materials have shown great potential for phosphate removal owing to the strong affinity between La and phosphate. In this study, magnetic hydrothermal biochar immobilized La(OH) (La-MHTC) were prepared and used as phosphate adsorbents. Hydrochar was produced by the hydrothermal carbonization process (220℃, 2 h).

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigated the connection between the GJD2 gene and myopia using a form-deprivation myopia (FDM) model in guinea pigs, building on previous genome-wide association studies.
  • The researchers found that after 3 weeks, the FDM group developed significant myopia, with a -6.75 D shift, while control guinea pigs showed minimal changes.
  • Additionally, GJD2 mRNA expression decreased by 31.58% and Cx36 protein levels decreased by 37.72% in the FDM group compared to controls, indicating a potential link between these changes and the development of myopia.
