Multi-omic spatial effects on high-resolution AI-derived retinal thickness by V. E. Jackson, Y. Wu, R. Bonelli, J. P. Owen, L. W. Scott, S. Farashi, Y. Kihara, M. L. Gantner, C. Egan, K. M. Williams, B. R. E. Ansell, A. Tufail, A. Y. Lee, M. Bahlo

“…The macula is disproportionately affected by high disease burden retinal disorders such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy, which both involve metabolic dysregulation. Analysis of common genomic variants, metabolomic, blood and immune biomarkers, disease PheCodes and genetic scores across a fine-scale macular thickness grid, reveals multiple novel genetic loci including four on the X chromosome; retinal thinning associated with many systemic disorders including multiple sclerosis; and multiple associations to correlated metabolites that cluster spatially in the retina. …”

Intelligence and obesity during the obesity epidemic by Rebecca B. Clarke, Gunhild T. Okholm, Erik L. Mortensen, Merete Osler, Cathrine L. Wimmelmann, Thorkild I. A. Sørensen

“…The prevalence of obesity and overweight and BMI was higher at any ITS value in the late than in the early cohort, but inversely associated with ITS in both cohorts. The ITS displayed inverse J-shaped associations with BMI, with ITS peaking around a BMI of 20 kg/m2 and declining with higher BMI, although with a somewhat steeper decline in the early than in the late cohort. …”

Oxidative impact on lipoprotein structure: Insights from dynamic light scattering by Nickolette Kong, Natalia Penaloza, Gustavo Agreda, Angela B. Nguyen, Joseph Gutheinz, Alison Tran, Nhi Nguyen, Tuong Vi Ho, Ana Marin, Birgit Mellis, Richa Chandra

“…Here it is demonstrated that dynamic light scattering (DLS) is sensitive and effective at measuring variation in lipoprotein size distributions following oxidative damage caused by peroxidation and nitration—two common physiological processes that play dual roles in both normal and pathogenic states. We establish the utility of DLS in detecting subtle variations in lipoprotein size, including potential aggregation and fission events resulting from chemical modifications. …”
