Uncertainty propagation and sensitivity analysis: results from the Ocular Mathematical Virtual Simulator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We propose an uncertainty propagation study and a sensitivity analysis with the Ocular Mathematical Virtual Simulator, a computational and mathematical model that predicts the hemodynamics and biomechanics within the human eye. In this contribution, we focus on the effect of intraocular pressure, retrolaminar tissue pressure and systemic blood pressure

Diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation causes intraocular collamer lens displacement in pseudophakic eye: a case report

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2021
Background With the rapid development of intraocular collamer lens (ICL) operation, it is foreseeable that we will encounter a large number of glaucoma patients with ICL implantation history.

The elusive scleral cartilages: Comparative anatomy and development in teleosts and avians

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract The sclera of all vertebrate eyes is comprised of connective tissue, with some organisms developing cartilage within this tissue. A review of the cartilages that have been described in the vertebrate sclera and their anatomical relationships is discussed together with their potential homology.

PAF‐induced inflammatory and immuno‐allergic ophthalmic diseases and their mitigation with PAF receptor antagonists: Cell and nuclear effects

open access: yesBioFactors, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1226-1249, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Ocular allergies are becoming more prevalent as more airborne pollutants, irritants and microbes pervade our environment. Inflammatory and allergic mediators released by dendritic and mast cells within the conjunctiva cause allergic conjunctivitis (AC), a prevalent ocular surface disorder that affects >40% of the world's human population on a ...

Recent advances and challenges in temperature monitoring and control in microfluidic devices

open access: yesELECTROPHORESIS, Volume 44, Issue 1-2, Page 268-297, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Temperature is a critical—yet sometimes overlooked—parameter in microfluidics. Microfluidic devices can experience heating inside their channels during operation due to underlying physicochemical phenomena occurring therein. Such heating, whether required or not, must be monitored to ensure adequate device operation.

An examination of the hypothesis that intraocular pressure elevation episodes can have prognostic significance in glaucoma suspects

open access: yesJournal of Optometry, 2015
The efficacy of intraocular pressure reduction in retarding the progression of glaucoma has been demonstrated. This review examines the potential for prognostic advantage for glaucoma suspects in reducing their optic nerve head exposure to elevated ...

A cohort study of duplex Doppler examinations of the carotid artery in primary open angle glaucoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives To explore the possibility of pathological change in the common carotid artery at the bifurcation and in the internal carotid artery beyond the bifurcation which could contribute to a reduced diastolic pressure as observed in primary open ...

Retinal regions shape human and murine Müller cell proteome profile and functionality

open access: yesGlia, Volume 71, Issue 2, Page 391-414, February 2023., 2023
Main Points We defined Müller cells heterogeneity in the macular and peripheral human retina. Signaling pathways shaping this glial heterogeneity include proteins important for interaction with vesicular secretion, extracellular matrix and cell adhesion.
