Current status of accelerated corneal cross-linking
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 Corneal cross-linking with riboflavin is a technique to stabilize or reduce corneal ectasia, in diseases such as keratoconus and post-laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) ectasia.

Genetic heterogeneity and subtypes of major depression. [PDF]
, 2022 Major depression (MD) is a heterogeneous disorder; however, the extent to which genetic factors distinguish MD patient subgroups (genetic heterogeneity) remains uncertain. This study sought evidence for genetic heterogeneity in MD.

Benefits of host genetic diversity for resistance to infection depend on parasite diversity [PDF]
, 2010 Host populations with high genetic diversity are predicted to have lower levels of infection prevalence. This theory assumes that host genetic diversity results in variation in susceptibility and that parasites exhibit variation in infectivity. Empirical

Heterogeneity mapping of protein expression in tumors using quantitative immunofluorescence [PDF]
, 2011 Morphologic heterogeneity within an individual tumor is well-recognized by histopathologists in surgical practice. While this often takes the form of areas of distinct differentiation into recognized histological subtypes, or different pathological grade,

Topography-guided custom ablation treatment for treatment of keratoconus
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 Keratoconus is a progressive ectatic disorder of the cornea which often presents with fluctuating refraction and high irregular astigmatism. Correcting the vision of these patients is often a challenge because glasses are unable to correct the irregular ...

Genetic Heterogeneity in Familial Hyperinsulinism [PDF]
Human Molecular Genetics, 1998 Familial hyperinsulinism (HI) is a disorder characterized by dysregulation of insulin secretion and profound hypoglycemia. Mutations in both the Kir6.2 and sulfonylurea receptor (SUR1) genes have been associated with the autosomal recessive form of this disorder.

VARIANCE HETEROGENEITY IN GENETIC MAPPING [PDF]
, 2018 Genetic mapping is a process by which researchers seek to identify genetic factors that influence a trait of interest. Such efforts typically focus on those that either increase or decrease the trait of interest, and assume that the variance of the trait
