📝 What constitutes a strong #PeerReview? Start with the essentials.
📌 Comments to editors should address overarching issues: Is the study scientifically credible and relevant to the field or journal audience?
📌 Succinct, high-level insights assist editors in decision-making, while detailed suggestions are best included in your comments to the authors.

A 10-year-old boy had poor vision in the right eye since early childhood. Best-corrected visual acuity was 20/400 with –12.50/–2.25 × 180° in right eye. Right fundus examination revealed extensive retinal nerve fiber layer myelination and persistent fetal vasculature. Persistent fetal vasculature appeared as a fibrotic, semitranslucent, whitish stalk extending anteriorly from the optic nerve head, containing a thin, tortuous, perfused blood vessel, and terminating in the posterior vitreous humor with a closed anterior end. The classic triad of myelinated retinal nerve fibers, high myopia, and amblyopia is consistent with Straatsma syndrome, with a rare co-occurrence of persistent fetal vasculature.

Most retracted #Ophthalmology articles continued to be cited after retraction, with 80% receiving postretraction citations and nearly half of all citations occurring after retraction.

One in five fellow eyes had a double-layer sign, but only 40% of these exhibited #neMNV on OCT-A, indicating DLS is not a reliable surrogate in #AgeRelatedMacularDegeneration ja.ma/4cnUX6W

NEW: AI just became legally authorized to practice medicine in the US.
Actually prescribing with no doctor in the loop.
Doctronic launched a pilot where its AI renews prescriptions for chronic conditions, reviews history, asks questions, and sends the Rx to the pharmacy.

I'm obsessed with cognitive biases.
A "cognitive bias" is a systematic error in thinking that destroys decision-making.
11 most powerful (and dangerous) cognitive biases I've found: 🧵

Artificial intelligence (AI), especially ChatGPT, can create unique documents, songs, videos, and images. In the 4 fundus images (A, normal, B, normal, C, retinoblastoma, D, retinoblastoma), which do you think are real and which were created by AI?

Answer: B and D are real. A and C were created by ChatGPT with the following prompt: “Create a 30-degree fundus image of a (normal fundus and a retinoblastoma). Make it a genuine, accurate medical image.” The query was submitted on July 31, 2025, using the GPT-5 model. It can be difficult to discern if an image is real or created by AI. The teaching and fraud potential of AI-generated images is powerful. We hope to alert clinicians to both through this demonstration.
