Collagen cross linking: Current perspectives
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 Keratoconus is a common ectatic disorder occurring in more than 1 in 1,000 individuals. The condition typically starts in adolescence and early adulthood. It is a disease with an uncertain cause and its progression is unpredictable, but in extreme cases,

Corneal collagen cross-linking: A review
Journal of Optometry, 2014 The aim was to review the published literature on corneal collagen cross-linking. The emphasis was on the seminal publications, systemic reviews, meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials. Where such an evidence did not exist, selective large series

Complications of Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking [PDF]
Journal of Ophthalmology, 2011 Cross-linking of corneal collagen (CXL) is a promising approach for the treatment of keratoconus and secondary ectasia. Several long-term and short-term complications of CXL have been studied and documented. The possibility of a secondary infection after

Collagen cross-linking in thin corneas
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 Collagen cross-linking (CXL) has become the standard of care for progressive keratoconus, after numerous clinical studies have established its efficacy and safety in suitably selected eyes. The standard protocol is applicable in eyes which have a minimum

Keratoconus and corneal collagen cross-linking
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 Keratoconus, a degenerative disorder of the cornea, causes significant visual distortion and photophobia. Diagnosed in early life, it has a considerable influence on the patient's daily activities and visual needs. A study of the rural population in Central India gave a prevalence of 2.3% +/- 0.2% among those aged 30 years and above.[1] The ...

Bone Fragility and Collagen Cross-Links [PDF]
Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2004 Abstract Infrared imaging analysis of iliac crest biopsy specimens from patients with osteoporotic and multiple spontaneous fractures shows significant differences in the spatial variation of the nonreducible:reducible collagen cross-links at bone-forming trabecular surfaces compared with normal bone.

Collagen cross-linking. Isolation of cross-linked peptides from collagen of chicken bone [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1973 Cross-linked peptides were isolated from chicken bone collagen that had been digested with CNBr or with bacterial collagenase. Analyses of 3H radioactivity in disc electrophoretic profiles of the CNBr peptides from bone collagens that had been treated with NaB3H indicated that a major site of intermolecular cross-linking in chicken bone collagen is ...
