Purpose: To investigate the longitudinal relationship between myopia and retinal shape in Chinese children.
Methods: A total of 2471 seven-year-old Chinese children were measured for axial length, anterior corneal radius of curvature, anterior chamber depth, lens thickness, central spherical equivalent, and peripheral refractions along the horizontal meridian (±15°, ±30°) under cycloplegia. Retinal shape was fitted using vertex radius of curvature, asphericity, and an offset.
Poor tendon-bone interface (TBI) integration is one of the major causes contributing to unsatisfactory healing quality in patients after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Type H vessels have been recently found to closely modulate bone formation via regulation of the osteo-angiogenic crosstalk, so the strategies favoring type H vessel formation may be promising therapeutic approaches for improved graft osteointegration. In this study, we reported for the first time the treatment outcome of slit guidance ligand 3 (slit3), a novel proangiogenic factor favoring type H vessel formation, in TBI healing in mice with ACL reconstruction.

- - This research investigated how prolonged reading affects blood flow and thickness in the macular choroid among young adults, involving 109 participants aged 19-28 who read for 40 minutes at close range.
- - The results showed a significant decrease in choriocapillaris perfusion area (CCPA) after the near work session, and although choroidal thickness (ChT) also decreased, it wasn't a statistically significant change.
- - The study concluded that more severe myopia correlated with greater reductions in CCPA and that both baseline CCPA and ChT decreased with increasing axial length of the eye.
Introduction: This study sought to determine whether the application of 0.01% atropine eye drops could impact the disparity in refraction and axial length (AL) between the right and left eyes in Chinese children.
Methods: The study was designed as a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized trial.
Aim: To assess the effect of 0.01% atropine eye drops on intraocular pressure (IOP) in myopic children.
Methods: A placebo-controlled, double-masked, randomized study.
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate myopia progression and axial elongation after stopping 0.01% atropine eye drops through a 2-year cross-over study.
Methods: This study was a randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial in mainland China.
