Using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (H MRS) to determine total creatine (tCr) concentrations will become increasingly prevalent, as the role of creatine (Cr) in supporting brain health gains interest. Methodological limitations and margins of error in repeated H MRS, which often surpass reported effects of supplementation, permeate existing literature. We examined the intra- and inter-session reliability and repeatability of H MRS for determining tCr concentrations across multiple brain regions (midbrain, visual cortex and frontal cortex).

Purpose: To assess repeatability of macular inner choroid flow deficit percentage (ICFD%) in intermediate age-related macular degeneration (iAMD) and controls employing various post-processing approaches.
Methods: Cross-sectional, observational study. We included (1) 22 iAMD and 24 control eyes, with (2) age >50 years, (3) visual acuity >20/32, and (4) no additional ocular and systemic confounders.

Prey face a major challenge in balancing predator avoidance with other essential activities. In environments with high risk, prey may exhibit neophobia (fear of novelty) due to the increased likelihood of novel stimuli being dangerous. The zebrafish, Danio rerio, is an established model organism for many scientific studies.

The study also sought to investigate the correlation of CD with age, gender, and central corneal thickness (CCT) in normal eyes.
Methods: CD measurements were obtained using the Casia 2 and the Pentacam AXL Wave.

Purpose: To investigate the robustness and variability of a novel kinetic visual field (VF) screening method termed rapid campimetry (RC).
Methods: In RC visual field (VF) screening is enabled via kinetic-based testing on any computer (10°/4.7 s at 40-cm viewing distance) and high contrast in a dark room (1 cd/cm).
