Oxidation-Induced Increase In Photoreactivity of Bovine Retinal Lipid Extract
2017
Open access original paper Source : 10th EPR Workshop on Applications of EPR in Biology and Medicine, 2016 in Krakow, POLAND.; International audience; The mammalian retina contains a high level of polyunsaturated fatty acids, including docosahexaenoic acid (22:6) (DHA), which are highly susceptible to oxidation. It has been shown that one of the products of DHA oxidation-carboxyethylpyrrole (CEP), generated in situ, causes modifications of retinal proteins and induces inflammation response in the outer retina. These contributing factors may play a role in the development of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It is also possible that some of the lipid oxidation products are photoreactiv…
Problématiques de la nutrition en ophtalmologie – application à la dégénérescence maculaire liée à l’âge
2014
Nutrition in ophthalmology – clinical application to age-related macular degeneration «Let food be your medicine.» This contribution from Hippocrates is still timely addressed, especially in the field of ophthalmology. Observational epidemiology reports close associations between food habits and the risk or prevention of several ocular pathologies such as cataract or Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Anti-oxidant vitamins, minerals and lipids are the nutrients that have been the most widely studied. Interventional epidemiology and experimental works partially corroborated these findings. Unexpectedly, the benefit of long chain omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the prevention of l…

Automated Diagnostics of Retinal Pathologies Using OCT Volumes
2020
The leading cause of blindness in the population could mostly be the degeneration of the retina caused by the diabetic-related problems and the aging issue. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic macular edema (DME) are the main direct causes of vision problems in the labor age citizens of most advanced countries. The elevated number of diabetic people globally indicates that DME and DR will remain to be the principal factor to partial or total vision loss, which affects the lives quality of patients for many years to come and threaten their lives. Therefore, early detection followed by fast treatment procedures of persons with diabetic-related diseases is significant in preventing optical …
Is spectral domain optical coherence tomography useful in improving the contour line with the heidelberg retina tomograph?
2012
Purpose: To compare the measurements of the optic disc in glaucoma patients and glaucoma suspects with spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (HRT) before and after adjustment of the contour line with the help of the OCT.Methods: In 109 consecutive patients (109 eyes), optic disc parameters were compared prospectively between the 2 devices before and after adjustment of the optic disc area (ODA) on the HRT3 with ODA obtained with the Cirrus SD-OCT as a reference. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and the 95% limits of agreement (LoA) with Bland-Altman plots were used to compare the agreement of the pre and post-adjustment mea…
Participation des facteurs nutritionnels et environnementaux au vieillissement de la rétine et aux rétinopathies liées à l’âge

Aging is defined by all the physiological processes that alter the structure and functions of the body. With advanced age, aging of the human retina can evolve into pathological forms, agerelated macular degeneration (AMD) or diabetic retinopathy (DR). The mechanisms involved in the transition from normal aging to a pathologic state are poorly understood. Oxidative stress and advanced glycation end-products are promoting factors for aging of the retina. Meanwhile, epidemiological studies suggest that a diet rich in long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) such as EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), potentially protects against the development of AMD a…
