Contrast Sensitivity in Microtropic and Anisometropic Eyes of Successfully Treated Amblyopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objectives: To assess and compare contrast sensitivity function in the previously amblyopic and non-amblyopic “normal” eyes of patients with microtropia and anisometropia who achieved 20/20 visual acuity after occlusion therapy.

Evaluation of Color Contrast Sensitivity in Dyslexic Children

open access: yesمجله پژوهش در علوم توانبخشی, 2014
Introduction: Although there is a consensus about the importance of vision perception in reading, its role in development of dyslexia is highly debated. In order to understand the relationship between dyslexia and disorders of visual perception, we have ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

The importance of contrast sensitivity testing in children

open access: yesBritish and Irish Orthoptic Journal, 2014
Aim:  To discuss the information contrast sensitivity (CS) testing can provide over visual acuity testing, and review the literature relating to CS deficits in children to determine whether there is an optimum test available.

Assessing glaucoma deterioration using Spaeth/Richman contrast sensitivity test

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Ophthalmology, 2020
Purpose: To assess changes in the central and peripheral contrast sensitivity in severe primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients using a computer-based Spaeth/Richman contrast sensitivity test (SPARCS) over a period of 24 months.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Contrast sensitivity and the Stiles–Crawford effect

open access: yes, 2002
We investigated the influence of the Stiles–Crawford effect (SCE) of the first kind on the contrast sensitivity function using the apodisation model of the SCE.

Contrast Sensitivity of the Motion System

open access: yesVision Research, 1996
A number of experiments were conducted to investigate how global-motion performance varies with luminance contrast. When all the dots in the stimulus were the same contrast, performance improved with increasing contrast up to about the 15% level (Experiment 1). Increasing the contrast beyond this level had no additional effect on performance.
