Conclusion: In addition, supplements containing forskolin have consistently demonstrated the capacity to reduce intraocular pressure beyond the levels achieved with traditional therapy alone; however, despite the strong theoretical rationale and initial clinical evidence for the beneficial effect of dietary supplementation as an adjunct therapy for glaucoma, the evidence is not conclusive. More and better quality research is required to evaluate the role of nutritional supplementation in glaucoma.

Conclusion: SOF and CR1aa IVC media improved cryotolerance, while mSOF showed no effect. In conclusion, lipid modulators did not unanimously improve cryotolerance, especially when used in IVM, but presented positive effects on cryotolerance during IVC when reaching lipid reduction.
PubMed 38615434 ↗Conclusion: In this study, we discovered the existence of CTHRC1+ fibroblast in the bone-implant interface. Moreover, we revealed a bipolar mode of fibroblast differentiation and put forward the hypothesis that infection could modulate fibroblast toward a pro-inflammatory phenotype through NPAS2 and TFEC.
PubMed 36927352 ↗Conclusion: Our findings clearly indicate difficulties in reproducing the SPOM system worldwide, demonstrating that the meiosis arrest is not sufficient to ensure successful SPOM application. They also suggest that the different supplements used in the IVM medium and/or their interaction with modulators for different durations may produce a significant bias that affects experimental success.
