Post 1:

Hello, my name is Indranil Chakraborty. This is my blog to keep track of my progress, update my work and assignments while critically examining media that inspires me as well as the assignments and work that I create. On rare occasions have I been able to provide myself with constructive criticism without it turning into a rather negative spiral of criticism that eventually hinders my progress and demotivates me. For this very reason I have spent some time away from creating and I plan to change that in the coming weeks. I am still learning the ropes of maintaining a blog so kindly bare with me till I am able to establish a structure for the content that I post.

I would also like to establish some goals for myself to work on as the semester progresses (which definitely are subject to change) are as follows:

Be consistent and draw everyday

Attempt to study one creator every week as I believe this might be a good amount of time to understand and absorb certain aspects of their work such as line art, shape language usage of colour, so on and so forth. This will also include media such as articles, interview, process time-lapses, etc.

I would also like to study principles like anatomy and colour while doing other studies as well as and when I find time to do so

Finally, make sure that the self reflections and critical deep dives into my practice and study sessions are strictly constructive.

Its Sunday (20.09.24) here is some of the work that I have done after my practical class

Content Description:

Over the last 3 days, I attempted to draw digitally, a medium that I am comfortable with and made two self portraits of myself. I have started a new sketchbook and not knowing what exactly to fill in my first page I went down the rabbit hole of Pinterest looking for inspiration that eventually lead me nowhere. I finally settled on drawing my Bulbasaur plushie that sits on my desk beside me after which I proceeded to practice a 1 hour session of learning the anatomy of hands and feet.

Critical Reflections:

After reviewing my work here are some criticisms that I would give myself:

The digital drawing show a lack of anatomy knowledge. The proportions of the face could be improved. The line weight of the self portrait could be improved in areas like the scarf worn since it does seem a little flat as compared to the rest of the drawing. Overall I feel that not enough intention was put into the illustration.

This sketch was just an ideation for the red vs blue prompt. I think it does get the idea across to an extent but only provides a faint detail as to what is happening in the scene. The arms of the character could be more anatomically correct. The left hand coming out of the sleeve seems displaced as compared to the position of the sleeve. The left shoulder should also be slightly higher. There are some dynamic aspects to the drawing that do show motion such as the flying scarf and the bag but the body of the character could definitely be pushed more.

for the traditional drawings, the Bulbasaur drawings do show some imaginative and iterative qualities. Being quick sketches they do not have the quality of detail. I could have also been more imaginative with the poses as they feel quite static with respect to the freedom I approached this page with. As for the hands and feet studies, I allotted myself about 5-6 minutes to complete each drawing. This was a very straightforward study of the subjects from the website https://line-of-action.com/practice-tools/hands-feet-practice . However it does feel like I approached the study from the perspective of being able to copy my subject rather than understand its shapes. I was unclear with the goal of the study which I think i should establish from the next study that I do.

Hii, first how are you today? I hope you're doing good!

Even if I've just discovered your Tumblr, I'm ALREADY in LOVE! I have not yet gotten any time to read your dark cream comic... Sorry about that.

In any case, what are your tips for a beginning digital artist? Cause well... I'm in my opinion, really bad at art. (It certainly doesn't help that I'm a perfectionist.)

But I've decided to at least try to get better at it! I just didn't really know where to start? However, since that, I'm back in the Undertale fandom rabbit hole. I wanted to try get better at drawing skeletons? So yeah, any tips are welcome! (Literally, anything is welcome! From how to question existence when drawing, thought I don't know why I should know that... To art tips that helped you!)

Take good care of yourself! Stay hydrated, eat enough! And take breaks for mental health! And remember people care for you!

Hii!╰(*´︶`*)╯Yep, thank youuu <3 Hopefully you're doing good too! ☆

I'm so glad to hear it and appreciate your interest a lot! (〃ω〃) Please feel free to take all the time you need & don't hesitate to ask anything ♡

We all start small so there's nothing wrong or embarrassing about it! (ówò) Being a perfectionist may make it harder but don't let it stop you from enjoying your works and the process itself ☆

And that's great that you're determined to improve! ᕦ(òwóˇ)ᕤ Improving is possible only when you draw, so practice and practice again ♪

In fact, it does depend on what you want to improve! Bones? Study the 3D skeleton and try it in your style! (Which means, you don't have to be anatomically correct but this will help you to understand how it "works" <3) Expressions? Look for tutorials and try yours! Poses? So many references but the best one is you in the mirror! ٩( ᐛ )و

When I started, I didn't even care about anatomy, tutorials and stuff (I still don't xd) but just drew as I could & wanted; it was bad, but it was experience — and lots of fun (๑>◡<๑)

Thank you so much and good luck! (*´꒳`*) Take care and stay safe as well <3

#ask #zu is happy #tip #<- (here you can find more tips! <3)#gotta zzz— have a good night or day everyone!╰(*´︶`*)╯☆

March blog #3- Gender and Sex: What's the difference?

Hello again reader! Last time we went down this rabbit hole, I barely discussed the surface level of what goes into Gender identity.

So for a small refresher:

Sex is the anatomical classification of people as male, female or intersex, usually assigned at birth.

AND

Gender identity is each person’s internal and individual experience of gender. It is a person’s sense of being a woman, a man, both, neither, or anywhere along the gender spectrum. A person’s gender identity may be the same as or different from their birth-assigned sex.

This however is different from Gender expression, which is how a person publicly expresses or presents their gender. This can include behaviour and outward appearance such as dress, hair, make-up, body language and voice. This can also be a person’s chosen name and pronoun which are also common ways of expressing gender.

A person’s gender identity is fundamentally different from and not related to their sexual orientation.

Now we can quickly talk about pronouns. There are a plethora of different pronouns and different combinations of them. I think the best way to approach it for me has been doing your best to use the pronouns people are comfortable with. If they use "them/they" then use them. It can be a bumpy transition if you were used to a different pronoun, but just correct yourself and move on. Make sure to talk with them if you have any questions. But don't treat them like a teacher, make sure to take the time to educate yourself as well!

We talked about Trans or transgender, last time as well. And Transgender can be used as an umbrella term referring to people with diverse gender identities and expressions that differ from stereotypical gender norms. It includes but is not limited to people who identify as transgender, trans woman (male-to-female MTF), trans man (female-to-male FTM), transsexual, cross-dressers, or gender non-conforming, gender variant or gender queer.

I know it seems like a sea of different identities, but people are diverse. We all go through life so differently and we all like and dislike so many things. To make a silly comparison, imagine it simply as food. For some people there are only two categories, spicy and sweet, but really it's a spectrum. Foods can even be both. No such thing is universal, that includes gender.

I'm a cisgender woman, meaning I was born a woman and I identify with that. But that's just me, it would be ignorant to assume that my mindset could be everyone's.

In the end, just get educated. The human experience includes empathy and trying our best to understand and be kind to others.

So, like my senior quote, "Be good people."

#protect trans rights #gender #be kind #transgender

Lupine Publishers | Guide Lines for Wet AMD Treatment

Lupine Publishers | Trends in Ophthalmology Open Access Journal

Abstract

Purpose: To give practical guide lines for the management of neovascular AMD

Methods: To evaluate the above-mentioned item based on recently published data.

Results: Although many therapeutic modalities have been employed for neovascular AMD treatment, yet anti-VEGFs are still the best line of treatment.

Conclusion: Although anti-VEGFs are up till now the best line of treatment for nAMD yet a knowledge of how to use them with or without other modalities is very important to get the best therapeutic results.

Keywords: nAMD; Anti-VEGFs

Introduction

Many therapeutic modalities have been employed for neovascular AMD which includes:

I. Macular laser photocoagulation [Macular Photocoagulation Study (MPS) can result in preventing severe loss of vision in about 50 percent of treated patients with extra/ juxta foveal CNV, with about 50 percent of patients developing recurrent choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM).

II. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) with verteporfin acts via activating a photosensitizing dye within the pathologic vessels by infrared laser leading to occlusion of choroidal new vessels with minimal damage to the retina. PDT can prevent 3-line vision loss in about 49 to 77 percent of treated patients but seldom improves vision [1].

III. With the establishment of VEGF as the main cause for the development and progression of neovascularization, novel agents to block them and thereby preventing further progression was sought for. With the advent of anti-VEGF agents, the treatment for neovascular AMD has completely changed, with dramatic outcomes.

Anti-VEGFs

The inclusion of ranibizumab, a nonspecific VEGF inhibitor further refined the results of anti-VEGF therapy for neovascular AMD [2]. The MARINA study evaluated the effect of ranibizumab injection in patients with minimally classic or occult CNV. The conclusion of Marina study was that monthly IVL injection for 2 years prevented vision loss and improved mean VA in patients with minimally classic / occult CNV secondary to AMD. The conclusion of the ANCHOR trial was that Lucentis was superior to PDT as treatment of predominantly classic NAMD [3- 9]. The Comparison of AMD Treatments Trial Study (CATT study) trial was primarily designed to determine if bevacizumab works as well as ranibizumab in terms of visual outcomes (a difference of <5 letters), and also to identify any safety differences between the two drugs.

Visual outcome results:

When comparing ranibizumab monthly to bevacizumab monthly, the CATT study demonstrated no difference between the two drugs, with patients in both groups gaining more than 8 letters on the eye chart on average over the course of a year and the results were maintained over 2 years.

Safety Outcomes

The rate of ocular infection following injection of medication was similar with the two drugs [10].

A similar head to head comparison trial between the two drugs was the alternative treatments to Inhibit VEGF in Age-related choroidal Neovascularization [IVAN]: 1year results concluded similar efficacy of both drugs [11].

Treatment Protocols: Primarily Designed for AMD

Ranibizumab: As-needed Regimen The Prospective OCT Imaging of Patients with Neovascular AMD Treated with Intraocular Ranibizumab [PrONTO] Study: In this study patients received 3 consecutive monthly injections of 0.5 mg ranibizumab and were then followed monthly and retreated if there was an increase in OCT central retinal thickness [CRT] of at least 100 microns or a loss of best-corrected ETDRS VA of 5 letters or more. In the PrONTO study, VA outcomes were comparable with those reported in ranibizumab phase III clinical studies, but with fewer intravitreal injections [12]. The Sailor [13], Sustain [14] and Horizon [15] trials are other as needed regime studies. Overall, these studies support frequent follow-up and individualized retreatment to achieve the best visual acuity gains with the as-needed treatment regimen.

Ranibizumab: Treat-and-Extend Regimen:

Treat-and-extend dosing regimen involves increasing intervals between treatment up to 10 weeks as long as no fluid is present on OCT. If fluid is present, the interval between treatments is shortened. Oubraham found that at one-year, mean gain in VA was greater in the treat and-extend group than in the as-needed group [+10.8 versus+2.3 letters, resp.]. Eyes in the treat-and-extend group received significantly more mean injections [7.8 versus 5.2] [16]. Similar trials were also done with Bevcizumab with similar results [17-25].

Aflibercept as Compared to Other Anti-VEGFs

A. Aflibercept is a soluble decoy receptor produced by fusing all-human DNA sequences of the second immunoglobulin domain of human VEGFR1 and the third immunoglobulin domain of human VEGFR2, which then fused to the Fc region of human IgG1.2. The intravitreal half-life of aflibercept is 4.7 days in rabbit eyes, which is longer than ranibizumab [2.9 days] and comparable with bevacizumab [4.3 days].

B. The combined high affinity and longer half-life has led to a calculated duration of effect of a single intravitreal injection of 2 mg aflibercept of 48-83 days. Monthly treatment with aflibercept has been shown to improve the vision in exudative AMD in 2 clinical trials. VIEW [VEGF Trap-Eye: Investigation of Efficacy and Safety in wet AMD] 1 and View 2 showed that, at 1 year, aflibercept treatment [0.5, 2 mg monthly, or 2 mg every 2 months after three initial monthly doses] was non-inferior and clinically equivalent to ranibizumab [0.5 mg] given monthly [26].

C. Aflibercept therapy appears to be beneficial in a subset of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration who exhibit recurrent or resistant intra-retinal or subretinal fluid following multiple injections with either bevacizumab or ranibizumab [27].

Anatomical Measures as Predictors of Visual Outcomes in Ranibizumab-Treated Eyes with Neovascular Age- Related Macular Degeneration:

a) First and foremost, an initial anatomical [according to FFA and/or OCT analyses] or visual improvement after three monthly ranibizumab injections does not guarantee longterm success. For eyes with FFA lesion activity at Month 3, CFT>/=200mm at Month 3, and qualitative OCT activity at Months 2 and Month 3 the average BCVA gain from 3 monthly loading doses of ranibizumab was lost after switching to quarterly dosing [every 3 months], and eyes lost vision compared with baseline at Months 12 and 24.

b) Second, it appears that the longer anatomical improvements were maintained [according to FFA or OCT], the more likely it was that the BCVA benefits of ranibizumab persisted on a quarterly dosing regimen. Eyes with inactive FFA lesions at Month 5 or inactive OCT lesions at Month 5 or Month 8 were much more likely to maintain their BCVA gains.

c) While a surprisingly low number of eyes demonstrated inactive FFA lesions after 3 loading doses of ranibizumab (i.e., 10% at Month 3), eyes with a dry FFA showed the strongest association with BCVA outcomes at Months 12 and 24. At the same 3-month time point, 60% of evaluated eyes were dry on qualitative OCT grading. This disparity may result from the sampling error introduced by having only two scans available for grading (rather than all 6 radial line scans available from a Stratus macular thickness map or the greatly increased sample size of currently available spectral-domain OCT devices). It is also known that an effective RPE pump sometimes keeps the retina dry and gives a “dry” OCT reading, despite active CNV leakage [28].

Comparison of Spectral-Domain and Time-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography in the Detection of Neovascular Age- Related Macular Degeneration Activity:

a. With high-resolution volumetric SD-OCT imaging, physicians are capable of detecting signs of exudative AMD activity more precisely. Time domain platforms are less likely to identify active exudative disease activity; this could potentially lead to undertreatment of active neovascular AMD.

b. Both volumetric and raster scans collect data in the same way, via parallel B-scans. The important difference being that volumetric scanning includes more parallel B-scans, in a denser array, providing higher resolution and the ability to render a three-dimensional image. For example, with the Cirrus platform, the 5-line raster algorithm uses only 5 B-scans compared with 128 B-scans used with the volumetric scan [29-30] (Figure 1).

c. Some areas of exudative activity that oriented more vertically were better visualized with radially oriented SD imaging compared with the more traditional horizontal raster scanning patterns [30] (Figure 2).

If after 3 loading doses of Ranibizumab the CNV activity disappeared but the visual acuity did not improve as expected, this might be either due to a disrupted IS/OS line or a thick CNV membrane. In conclusion Visual acuity was most improved when the disrupted IS/OS line was better restored, and CNV thickness was more decreased [31] (Figure 3).

Correlation of Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Characteristics with Visual Acuity in Eyes with Sub-foveal Scarring After Treatment for Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration

In a case series, visual acuity in cases of sub foveal scarring was affected mainly by the integrity of the IS/OS and external limiting membrane lines [32] (Figure 4).

Spectral domain OCT scans of patients with sub foveal scarring:

A. Thin fovea with subfoveal scarring, VA: Counting fingers.

B. Intact IS/OS junction (arrowhead) and ELM (arrow) in fovea, VA: 20/32.

C. Normal foveal thickness with no IS/OS or ELM seen, VA: Counting fingers.

D. Intact ELM at fovea, with intact IS/OS near fovea, VA: 20/40.

E. Foveal cystoid degeneration, VA: 20/800.

F. Cystoid degeneration with disrupted IS/OS within central 1,000 mm, but intact near fovea, VA: 20/80 [32].

Response 0f Pigment Epithelial Detachments to Intravitreal Aflibercept among Patients with Treatment-Resistant Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Three PED types were identified on OCT; hollow, solid and mixed. The hollow type showed the best response to aflibercept treatment while the solid type was the worst in response (Figure 5).

a) Hollow: are hypo reflective and contain fluid exudate

b) Solid: hyper reflective and represents fibrinous leakage or fibrovascular proliferation, suggesting active neovascularization.

c) Mixed:

i) Vision loss associated with PEDs seems to be largely nonreversible , even with structural reduction of the lesion.

ii) Retinal pigment epithelium tears may complicate treatment of PEDs during treatment with intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy. Larger vascularized PEDs that have a higher intraluminal pressure are at a significantly greater risk of producing RPE tears after anti- VEGF therapy (especially in the early stages of ttt), with acute vision loss [33].

Unfavorable Anatomical Response to Anti VEGFs

I. Some patients, however, have a good initial response to Avastin & Lucentis with resolution of fluid, but then later become resistant to further treatment and develop recurrent exudation with vision loss. The mechanism of this resistance to treatment with these drugs is not known, but one possibility is tolerance or tachyphylaxis, manifested by a decreased response over time to repeated treatment with a medication. Tachyphylaxis sometimes can be reversed by increasing the dose or halting therapy for a period of time before reinstating the same treatment.

II. Aflibercept therapy as mentioned above, appears to be beneficial in a subset of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration who exhibit recurrent or resistant intraretinal or subretinal fluid following multiple injections with either bevacizumab or ranibizumab [27].

Response of Type 3 Neovascularization to Anti-VEGF Treatment

a) The CME and sub-RPE fluid associated with Type 3 neovascularization resolve briskly with intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy, typically after only one or two injections.

b) A recent, longitudinal prospective study examining the response of Type 3 lesions to anti-VEGF therapy demonstrated that all eyes had stable or improved vision at 3 years of follow-up after a mean of 9.4 injections during that time. The visual prognosis was excellent [34].

Combination Therapies for Wet AMD

Role of Additional Dexamethasone for the Management of Persistent or Recurrent Neovascular Age Related Macular Degeneration Under Ranibizumab Treatment

a) The efficacy of a combination therapy of intravitreal ranibizumab together with a dexamethasone implant in comparison with ranibizumab monotherapy in persistent or recurrent neovascular age-related macular degeneration was studied and it was found that combined therapy delays retreatment in patients with persistent/recurrent neovascular age-related macular degeneration and an overall reduction in required ranibizumab retreatments compared with ranibizumab monotherapy with consistent functional outcomes. [35].

b) The expectations on the improved effect of a combination therapy lie on the multifactorial pathogenesis of nAMD involving angiogenesis and inflammation. As CNV persist under monotherapy, a combined approach seems to be reasonable to decelerate disease progression. Corticosteroids act because of their anti-inflammatory, antiangiogenic, and antiedematous effects [36-38]. Hence, additional corticosteroids seem to have the ability to target chronic inflammation when combined with anti-VEGF. In addition, a decrease in effect during an anti- VEGF monotherapy has been reported, and desensitization of tachyphylaxis by adding corticosteroids in chronic CNV was suggested [39].

Anti- VEGF Combined with Photodynamic Therapy

The combination has an additive or synergistic effect; PDT targets the vascular component Anti-VEGF targets the mediators of the angiogenic cascade and counteracts up-regulation of angiogenic factors that occur after PDT treatment. The combination causes reduction of re-treatment rate BUT may not achieve equivalent visual acuity outcomes [40-42].

Avastin Triple Therapy

a. The aim of this treatment is to combine Avastin with PDT and Dexamethasone. First PDT Light dose 42j/cm is delivered in 70 sec then after 16h. Intravitreal injection of 800mcg dexamethasone plus 1.5mg Avastin are given.

b. Triple therapy in one study was found to result in a good VA outcome with lower cost compared to repeated injections. Other studies, however, failed to show any benefit of the triple therapy as compared to anti-VEGF monotherapy [43-44]

Podcast 123: The Rear foot: Understanding your RearFoot type

Key tag words: foot types, rearfoot, forefoot, pronation, supination, shoe fit, forefoot varus, forefoot supinatus, rearfoot inversion, ankle rocker, injuries, rehab, corrective exercises Rearfoot varus and Rearfoot valgus. Knowing the anatomy of your rear foot and its anatomic and functional posturing can lead to many problems in anyone. If you do not know the rearfoot type and posturing, you will not understand the rest of the foot mechanics. Without this knowledge, you will not know the reason for midfoot or forefoot problems, not understand what shoe you are in, or even why the shoe, footbed, orthotic you have chosen is either not fixing your problems, or causing them. Join us on a journey down the rearfoot rabbit hole over the next hour. Plus a few funny stories to lighten the biomechanics-heavy dialogue.
