Bioavailability of dietary omega-3 DHA and lutein for the retina: results from a preclinical study in mini-pigs with encapsulated nutrients
2015
Purpose: Epidemiological studies support the hypothesis that dietary omega-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and carotenoids prevent from Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). AREDS2 failed to find benefits of omega-3 supplementation on the progression to advanced AMD. However, lower risk progression was reported in AMD patients of the NAT2 study whom omega-3 incorporation in red blood cells and plasma was the highest. Our purpose was to test whether feeding mini-pigs with encapsulated docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and lutein would promote the bioavailability of the nutrients in plasma and tissues including the retina. Methods: Microparticles containing lutein and DHA were formed by s…

What is driving the decision to perform filtering surgery in glaucoma patients?
2015
Purpose: To assess what is driving the decision to perform a filtering procedure in glaucoma patients. Methods: Retrospective study in one single University center. All the indications for filtering glaucoma surgeries (alone or combined with cataract extraction) performed in 2013 by the same surgeon were reviewed. The indications were as follows: clinical evaluation of the optic disc, visual field progression, progression on imaging (OCT), poor tolerance to medical treatment, poor control of intraocular pressure (IOP) and cataract. Results: The filtering surgeries (n = 159) were as follows: 78 trabeculectomies, 45 combined cataract and deep sclerectomy, 24 combined cataract and trabeculecto…

Do you like cream in your coffee? This could be due to your saliva composition…
2014
Saliva composition can be modified by several factors (mastication, diet), but remains fairly stable for an individual subject in resting conditions. Saliva composition is linked to the sensory perception of fat and bitterness, and should thus be considered to better understand and model taste and food perception.
