Eye colour and skin pigmentation as significant factors for refractive outcome and residual accommodation in hypermetropic children: a randomized clinical trial using cyclopentolate 1% and tropicamide 1%

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 100, Issue 4, Page 454-461, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose To compare the refractive outcome and residual accommodation with respect to various degrees of iris and skin pigmentation in hypermetropic children using 2 drops of cyclopentolate 1% (C + C) or 1 drop of cyclopentolate 1% and 1 drop of tropicamide 1% (C + T).

Cooperative nuclear action of RNA-binding proteins PSF and G3BP2 to sustain neuronal cell viability is decreased in aging and dementia. [PDF]

Aging Cell
Little is known about the nuclear molecular actions and cooperative functions mediated by RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs) in sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD) or aging. We showed reduced expression levels of PSF and G3BP2, which are representative RBPs associated with sex hormone activity, in aging and AD development.

A PRELIMINARY APPROACH TO ASSESS PEACH FRUIT TEXTURE BY TIME-RESOLVED SPECTROSCOPY (TRS) [PDF]

, 2015
Most fruits can be modeled for their internal composition as a diffusive medium at visible and near-infrared wavelengths. The low absorption in this spectral range allows exploiting VIS/NIR spectroscopic techniques to probe non-destructively the internal

Robert Grosseteste and the Colours [PDF]

, 2014
Here we discuss the De Colore, one of the short scientific treatises written by Robert Grosseteste in the mid-1220s. In this treatise, Grosseteste continues the discussion on light and colours he started in the De Iride.

Nitrogen uptake and nitrogen fertilizer recovery in old and modern wheat genotypes grown in the presence or absence of interspecific competition [PDF]

, 2015
Choosing genotypes with a high capacity for taking up nitrogen (N) from the soil and the ability to efficiently compete with weeds for this nutrient is essential to increasing the sustainability of cropping systems that are less dependent on auxiliary ...

Use of biostimulants for water stress mitigation in two durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) genotypes with different drought tolerance

Plant Stress
Agriculture is facing complex and unprecedented challenges, such as climate change and global population growth, associated with the increase of food demand. Durum wheat (DW) is a strategic crop for food security in the Mediterranean region. In this work,

Role of piRNA biogenesis and its neuronal function in the development of neurodegenerative diseases

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), are caused by neuronal loss and dysfunction.

The four elements in Robert Grosseteste's De Impressionibus Elementorum

, 2013
In De Impressionibus Elementorum, a treatise written by Grosseteste shortly after 1220, we can find a discussion of some phenomena involving the four classical elements (air, water, fire and earth), in the framework of an Aristotelian physics of the ...
