Strip Meniscometry Tube: A Rapid Method for Assessing Aqueous Deficient Dry Eye [PDF]
Australasian journal of optometry, The, 2020 The aim of this study was to investigate the utility of strip meniscometry tube (SMTube) for the quantitative assessment of the tear film, by comparing it to measurements of tear turnover rate using the gold standard method, fluorophotometry. Also, to determine the viability of this test as a diagnostic tool for aqueous deficient dry eye (ADDE), to ...

The Autoimmune Nature of Aqueous Tear Deficiency
Ophthalmology, 1986Twenty-two patients with aqueous tear deficiency (ATD) were examined for the presence of the following autoantibodies: immunofluorescent antinuclear antibody (ANA) and Sjögren's syndrome antibodies A and B (SS-A and SS-B). These autoantibodies were found in 17 (82%) patients but not in control subjects, and they correlated with the severity of symptoms

Evaluation of aqueous-deficient and evaporative dry eye cases with confocal microscopy
Journal Français d'Ophtalmologie, 2023Dry eye disease (DED) is an important health problem affecting hundreds of millions of people worldwide. In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) is a non-invasive imaging tool that can visualize ocular surface diseases. In this study, we aimed to evaluate corneal structures and inflammatory cells with IVCM in DED patients.The patients were divided into ...

Quantification of Conjunctival TNF‐α in Aqueous‐Deficient Dry Eye
Optometry and Vision Science, 2014ABSTRACT Purpose This study aimed to quantify and compare conjunctival epithelial tumor necrosis factor (NF) α mRNA expression in Sjögren syndrome (SS), non–Sjögren syndrome aqueous‐deficient dry eye (non‐SS DE), and non–dry eye (NDE) control subjects.

The “azotopure” process for treating nitrogen‐deficient aqueous wastes
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1973AbstractMany chemical and food processing wastes are deficient in nitrogen, and must therefore be supplemented with domestic sewage or ammonia to dispose of them by conventional biological treatment. A more economical treatment, especially of strong wastes, is possible by maintaining a semipure culture of nitrogen‐fixing bacteria in a stirred aerated ...

Mesenchymal stem cell therapy in aqueous deficient dry eye disease
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2023AbstractENGLISH SUMMARYDry eye disease (DED) is characterized by ocular dryness, irritation and blurred vision and has a significant impact on the patient's quality of life. This condition can be particularly severe in patients with aqueous deficient dry eye disease (ADDE) due to Sjögren's syndrome (SS), an autoimmune disease that affects the lacrimal ...
