    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the effect of 2 vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) isoforms (121 and 165) and 2 anti-VEGF compounds (ranibizumab and pegaptanib sodium) on the permeability of human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells in vitro.

    Methods: The RPE permeability was assessed on ARPE19 cells grown onto inserts of polytetrafluoroethylene previously treated with ammonia gas plasma. Paracellular permeability to ions was measured by mean of transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER). Permeability to non-ionic molecules was gathered by the amount of fluorescein dextran (FD) passing across the monolayer within 2 hours.

    Results: Only VEGF165 applied at the apical side of the monolayer induced a statistically significant decrease of TEER (p<0.001). No changes in TEER were observed when pegaptanib sodium or ranibizumab were apically administered together with VEGF165. 
Both VEGF isoforms significantly increased permeability to 4 kDa dextran (p<0.01). Apical administration of ranibizumab or pegaptanib sodium as well as coadministration of pegaptanib sodium with VEGF121 or VEGF165 induced a statistically significant increase of permeability to 4 kDa FD. 

    Conclusion: Both VEGF isoforms and anti-VEGF compounds exert an effect on human RPE permeability in vitro.

    Abstract Purpose: To describe a new genetic variation of BEST1 gene in Best vitelliform macular dystrophy.
    Methods: A patient with bilateral multiple retinal yellowish lesions at the posterior pole underwent fluorescein angiography, fundus autofluorescence, optical coherence tomography, electrooculogram and blood sample for genetic testing.
    Results: A diagnosis of a Best vitelliform macular dystrophy was made. Heterozygous mutation c.76G > A (p.Gly26Ser) in exon 2 of the BEST1 gene was found.
    Conclusion: These findings contribute to expand the mutation spectrum of BEST1 gene.

    Abstract Retinal diseases affect an increasing number of patients worldwide because of the aging population. Request for diagnostic imaging in ophthalmology is ramping up, while the number of specialists keeps shrinking. Cutting-edge technology embedding artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are thus advocated to help ophthalmologists perform their clinical tasks as well as to provide a source for the advancement of novel biomarkers. In particular, optical coherence tomography (OCT) evaluation of the retina can be augmented by algorithms based on machine learning and deep learning to early detect, qualitatively localize and quantitatively measure epi/intra/subretinal abnormalities or pathological features of macular or neural diseases. In this paper, we discuss the use of AI to facilitate efficacy and accuracy of retinal imaging in those diseases increasingly treated by intravitreal vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors (i.e. anti-VEGF drugs), also including integration and interpretation features in the process. We review recent advances by AI in diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and retinopathy of prematurity that envision a potentially key role of highly automated systems in screening, early diagnosis, grading and individualized therapy. We discuss benefits and critical aspects of automating the evaluation of disease activity, recurrences, the timing of retreatment and therapeutically potential novel targets in ophthalmology. The impact of massive employment of AI to optimize clinical assistance and encourage tailored therapies for distinct patterns of retinal diseases is also discussed.

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the incidence of pseudophakic cystoid macular edema (PCMO) in patients treated with corticosteroids alone or in combination with bromfenac or nepafenac eyedrops after uneventful cataract surgery.
    Materials and methods: Prospective, randomized, open-label, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Patients who underwent routine cataract surgery with intraocular lens (IOL) implant were randomly divided into three groups receiving either bromfenac or nepafenac in association with dexamethasone or dexamethasone alone (control group) postoperatively. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measurement, slit lamp and fundus examination and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed preoperatively, 1 and 5 weeks after surgery. Primary outcome was defined as patients (%) in whom macular edema developed within 5 weeks after cataract surgery; secondary end points were patients (%) with BCVA improvement from pre-op through 5 weeks after surgery and corneal toxicity.
    Results: A total of 144 patients completed the study, 48 for each group. In all groups, mean central subfield thickness at OCT increased significantly 5 weeks after surgery (p < 0.01). However, at this time point, four patients (8.3%) of the control group and none in nepafenac and bromfenac groups developed PCMO (p = 0.016). Compared with baseline, mean BCVA significantly improved both at 1 and 5 weeks in all groups (p < 0.01). At 1 week, the nepafenac group showed a mean BCVA significantly lower compared with both the control (p = 0.038) and bromfenac group (p = 0.002).
    Conclusions: Co-administration of nepafenac or bromfenac and steroids in patients who underwent routine cataract surgery is associated with a lower incidence of PCMO compared with steroid monotherapy.

    Abstract To assess the welfare of cats at the veterinary clinic and how caregivers and veterinarians affect it, a survey of Italian cat guardians (n = 1,111) was conducted using a 28-item multichoice questionnaire. Most cats showed impaired welfare during all stages of a clinic visit: before entering, in the waiting room, moving to the examination room, on the examination table, and after returning home. A relationship was found between welfare states in each stage. Stress worsened with further experience and had negative effects on traveling and handling in other situations. Restraint, pain, and anxiety led to aggression toward vets and guardians. Guardians showed a positive attitude toward their cats' health and welfare, and the veterinarians' behavior toward the cats was a reason for changing the veterinarian. One in 10 veterinarians examined the cat immediately, without stroking, talking, or offering food. However, the use of food was effective only if cats were not already stressed. Educating guardians and veterinarians to minimize stress during every stage of a clinic visit is the best approach to improving welfare for cats visiting the clinic.
