Axial movement of the dual-optic accommodating intraocular lens for the correction of the presbyopia: Optical performance and clinical outcomes

Journal of Optometry, 2015
Presbyopia occurs in the aging eye due to changes in the ciliary muscle, zonular fibers, crystalline lens, and an increased lens sclerosis. As a consequence, the capacity of accommodation decreases, which hampers to focus near objects.

Deciphering transcriptional plasticity in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma reveals alterations in sensory neuron innervation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pancreatic sensory neurons innervating healthy and PDAC tissue were retrogradely labeled and profiled by single‐cell RNA sequencing. Tumor‐associated innervation showed a dominant neurofilament‐positive subtype, altered mitochondrial gene signatures, and reduced non‐peptidergic neurons.

The difference in accommodative amplitude and facility between the dominant and non-dominant eyes

Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association
The cross-sectional study was planned to compare the amplitude of accommodation and accommodative facility between the dominant and non-dominant eyes in young university students.

Sensory control of ocular accommodation

, 1988
The investigations described in this thesis have examined how, with particular reference to optical cues, the retinal image is analysed by the brain so as to generate the appropriate signals for controlling accommodation. This line of research involved behavioural studies on trained monkeys (Macaca mulatto), human psychophysical studies, mathematical ...

Longitudinal circulating tumor DNA profiling in patients with advanced endometrial cancer using an off‐the‐shelf targeted NGS panel

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Intratumour heterogeneity complicates precision management of advanced endometrial cancer. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a minimally invasive strategy to capture tumor evolution and therapeutic resistance. Here, we compare tumor‐agnostic NGS with tumor‐informed ddPCR, outlining their relative sensitivity, concordance, and clinical implications ...

Prevalence of Near-Vision-Related Symptoms in a University Population

Vision
The university population has high visual demands. It is therefore important to assess the prevalence of symptoms in these subjects, which may affect their academic performance.

Latanoprost could exacerbate the progression of presbyopia.

PLoS ONE, 2019
PURPOSE:Prostaglandin analogues (PG) reduce intra-ocular pressure by enhancing uveoscleral flow at the ciliary body, which controls accommodation via the ciliary muscle.

Interpreting the effects of DNA polymerase variants at the structural level

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Using MAVISp and molecular dynamics simulations, we analyzed over 60 000 missense variants in POLE and POLD1 from ClinVar, COSMIC, cBioPortal, and saturation mutagenesis. Identified mechanistic indicators, including stability, binding, and long‐range, enable structural interpretation, providing ACMG‐like evidence for possible reclassification of VUS ...

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Evaluation of Ocular Complications in Intraoral Local Anesthesia

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences
Background: The most significant medications in dentistry are local anesthetics, and intraoral local anesthesia is arguably the most used dental procedure. However, complications have also been reported.
