Diffusion-weighted MRI and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy increased the accuracy of diagnosis of orbital masses through giving in vivo tissue characterization; with magnetic resonance spectroscopy being more accurate.
Increased levels of aqueous EPO and sCD44 may be associated with POAG. In addition, EPO and sCD44 may be useful proteins levels in aqueous of POAG patients as a result of glaucoma damage and not a cause. EPO and sCD44 concentrations in aqueous are a possible biomarkers for visual field loss in patients with POAG.
Supra-Tenon capsule implantation of the AGV was successful in controlling the IOP with few postoperative complications in the management of children with refractory glaucoma.
The calculation of IOL power in patients with high axial myopia using the third or the fourth generation formulas help in improvement of the accuracy of the calculation and decreasing the post operative refractive error. SRK/T formula showed the lowest mean error, however, there was not statistically significant difference between the three formulas used, neither in the overall performance, nor in axial length subcategories.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
