The review on problem tapetoretinal degeneration (TD) which represents serious enough and incurable disease revealed with frequency 1 : 3500-5000 in general population is presented. The most often reason of occurrence TD are mutations in RHO, RDS and RPE65 genes. The precise interrelation of pigmentary degenerations of a retina and mutations in genes RHO, RDS and RPE65 will allow to develop approaches of DNA--diagnostics of hereditary dystrophies of a retina so frequently meeting in clinical practice of the ordinary ophthalmologist, and also to pass at medical genetics consultation from probability estimations of risk of disease to unequivocal. Also the molecular analysis of genes changes in the providing correct functioning of photoreceptors and pigmentary epithelium of a retina and determining pathological changes at TD, will allow to approach to understanding of the physiological and pathological processes proceeding in a retina and by that will serve becoming and development pathogenic to caused therapy TD closer.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the effectiveness of an AI tool (AI-QCPA) used in coronary CT angiography (CCTA) for measuring plaque volume compared to intravascular ultrasound (IVUS).
  • Analysis involved 33 patients who had serious heart attacks, with various imaging techniques performed on their coronary vessels shortly after treatment.
  • Results showed strong correlations between AI-QCPA and IVUS measurements, although the AI tool tended to slightly underestimate total and calcified plaque volumes while overestimating noncalcified plaque.

Background/objectives: Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) remains a leading cause of vision impairment in premature infants, especially those with Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) necessitating respiratory support. This study aimed to identify correlations between plasma levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1) and Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and the risk of developing ROP. Additionally, it explored the association of ROP severity grades with plasma levels of glucose, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatin phosphokinase (CPK), and other biomarkers, aiming to uncover predictive markers for ROP risk and severity in this population.

Article Synopsis
  • * This study analyzed data from 73 neonates with RDS to explore the relationship between pulmonary ultrasonography scores and other health indicators like respiratory distress scores and chest X-ray grades.
  • * Results showed that pulmonary ultrasonography scores effectively predicted RDS severity, with significant correlations observed between ultrasonography scores and other health metrics before and after treatment.

Attachment of a detached retina does not always restore vision to pre-injury levels, even if the attachment is anatomically successful. The problem is due in part to long-term damage to photoreceptor synapses. Previously, we reported on damage to rod synapses and synaptic protection using a Rho kinase (ROCK) inhibitor (AR13503) after retinal detachment (RD).

A phosphide nickel(II) phenoxide pincer complex () reacts with CO(g) to give a pseudo-tetrahedral nickel(0) monocarbonyl complex () possessing a phosphinite moiety. This metal-ligand cooperative (MLC) transformation occurs with a (PPP)Ni scaffold (PPP = P[2-PPr-CH]), which can accommodate both square planar and tetrahedral geometries. The 2-electron reduction of a nickel(II) species induced by CO coordination involves group transfer to generate a P-O bond.
