Article Synopsis
- Recent studies indicate that pituitary tumors (PITs) in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) may not be as aggressive as earlier thought, possibly due to increased early detection through imaging screenings.
- A retrospective analysis of 42 MEN1 patients showed variations in clinical characteristics based on the presence of PITs and specific mutations, with mutation-positive patients having more associated tumors and earlier onset of MEN1.
- The findings suggest that patients without MEN1 mutations are less affected by the disease, which could justify a less intensive follow-up approach for them.
Despite progress in the treatment of diabetic macular edema and diabetic retinopathy, the rate of lower fundus examination due to limitations of medical resources delays the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. Therefore, implementation of automated diabetic retinopathy screening program and the identification of more specific and sensitive biomarkers are important for facilitating the earlier detection of diabetic macular edema and diabetic retinopathy to decrease the prevalence of poor vision and blindness.
