Bilateral Angle Narrowing and Acute Myopia Induced by Indapamide: A Case Report by Ana Catarina Pedrosa, Joana Rodrigues Araújo, João Paulo Macedo, Sérgio Estrela Silva, António Melo, Fernando Falcão-Reis

“…Indapamide may cause acute myopia and angle closure secondary to ciliochoroidal effusion that are fully reversible after drug withdrawal, as long as timely diagnosis is established. Therefore, indapamide, as well as other sulfonamide-derived drugs, must always be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute myopia and angle closure.…”

Quantifying 3D coral reef structural complexity from 2D drone imagery using artificial intelligence by Aviv Suan, Simone Franceschini, Joushua Madin, Elizabeth Madin

“…Because these three complexity metrics can be depicted through a plane equation, we could calculate the metric with the lowest color space predictive accuracy from the other two, thereby enhancing overall predictive accuracy. Our deep learning approach offers a scalable solution to measure structural complexity of shallow coral reefs, providing a balance of spatial resolution and extent that is more ecologically relevant than other large-scale, airborne approaches. …”
