CONCURRENT VASCULAR FLOW DEFECTS AT THE DEEP CAPILLARY PLEXUS AND CHORIOCAPILLARIS LAYERS IN ACUTE MACULAR NEURORETINOPATHY ON MULTIMODAL IMAGING: A CASE SERIES

Concurrent vascular flow defects at the deep capillary plexus and choriocapillaris layers in acute macular neuroretinopathy on multimodal imaging: A case series

Purpose: To describe multimodal imaging findings with focus on retinal and choroidal vascular features in acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN).Observations: Three eyes from 3 patients (1 man, 2 women) with average age of 31 were included in this retrospective case series at a single institution.Each case showed petaloid hyporeflective areas on infr

A putative 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate-dependent phosphoglycerate mutase is involved in the virulence, carbohydrate metabolism, biofilm formation, twitching halo, and osmotic tolerance in Acidovorax citrulli

Acidovorax citrulli (Ac) is a gram-negative bacterium that causes bacterial fruit blotch (BFB) disease in cucurbit crops including watermelon.However, despite the great economic losses caused by this disease worldwide, Ac-resistant watermelon cultivars have not been developed.Therefore, characterizing the virulence factors/mechanisms of Ac would en

Towards silent and efficient flight by combining bioinspired owl feather serrations with cicada wing geometry

Abstract As natural predators, owls fly with astonishing stealth due to the serrated feather morphology that produces advantageous flow characteristics.Traditionally, these serrations are tailored for airfoil edges with simple two-dimensional patterns, limiting their effect on noise reduction while negotiating tradeoffs in aerodynamic performance.C
