Corneal and epithelial thickness mapping in diabetic patients using optical coherence tomography

Journal of the Egyptian Ophthalmological Society
Purpose To evaluate corneal and epithelial thickness using the anterior segment optical coherence tomography and to correlate these changes with major disease parameters, that is duration of the disease, status of control (glycated hemoglobin level), and

Responsive nitric oxide‐releasing antibacterial materials for biofilm‐associated infections: Mechanisms, design strategies, and applications

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the recent progress in responsive NO‐releasing materials and their applications in biofilm‐associated infectious diseases. The design principles and response mechanisms are given to provide inspiration toward the future development of multi‐responsive NO‐releasing materials.

Preclinical Toxicity Screening of Sodium Dodecanoyloxybenzenesulfonate (LOBS) as a New Alternative Biocide Using In Vitro and In Vivo Models

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sodium hypochlorite is a well‐established biocide extensively used in both living and industrial environments; however, exposure to it or improper handling can harm the human body and the environment. Thus, safer alternatives to sodium hypochlorite are required.

Assessing a Model for a Complex Systemic Disorder—The Value of Male Mice With a Supernumerary X Chromosome for Klinefelter Syndrome Research

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Direct experimental investigation of Klinefelter syndrome (KS) in patients is limited because the syndrome manifests heterogeneously and affects multiple organ systems. Studying KS therefore requires a model that captures this complexity as accurately as possible while still permitting controlled experimental manipulation ...

Corneal power modelling with OCT data – Thin and thick lens paraxial models versus raytracing

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evaluating keratometric power with Zeiss index (PKZ), paraxial thick cornea power (Gullstrand [PG]) and power referenced to the front (PFV) and back vertex plane (PBV) and raytracing power (PR), and modelling the deviation from PKZ with a multivariable linear prediction model.

Corneal Thickness in Pseudoexfoliative Glaucoma

Collegium antropologicum, 2012
Measurements of central cornea thickness (CCT) have a very important value in glaucoma patients; if the central cornea is thinner than it suggests, then the intraocular pressure is falsely low. This study compares the central cornea thickness between patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, open angle glaucoma, angle closure glaucoma and control group.

Astigmatic changes after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in decompensated penetrating keratoplasty grafts

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the surgery‐induced changes of astigmatism after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in eyes with failed previous penetrating keratoplasty (PK). Design Retrospective, interventional cohort study based on prospective DMEK database.

Changes in choroidal and retinal thickness 6 months before and during 18 months of orthokeratology lens treatment in myopic children

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate changes in choroidal and retinal thickness before and during myopia control treatment with orthokeratology lenses (OKL) in myopic children. Methods This was a sub‐study of CONTROL and CONTROL2 studies. The present study was a 2‐year, prospective, single‐group interventional study consisting of a 6‐month pre‐treatment ...

Corneal Thickness in Congenital Glaucoma

Collegium antropologicum, 2012
Central corneal thickness is very important measurement in glaucoma treatment because it influences the eye pressure measurements. A thinner cornea gives us artifactually lower intraocular pressure and a thicker cornea gives higher intraocular pressure reading, so it has to be corrected in both cases. The aim of this study is to compare central corneal

Relationship between central corneal thickness, intra ocular pressure and visual field in normal tension and primary open angle glaucoma

مجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی گرگان, 2012
Background and Objective: Glaucoma is one of the most important cause of blindness wordwide. Exact determination of intra ocular pressure is important for the diagnosis and decision making about glaucoma treatment. Central corneal thickness is considered
