To Investigate the Near Point of Convergence (NPC) in Hyperopic Children [PDF]

, 2022
Purpose: This study was aimed to investigate the Near point of Convergence (NPC) in hyperopic children. Methods: The subjects comprised of school-going 76 children aged 5-14 years. The NPC was measured with the help of Royal Air Force (RAF) ruler. Refractive error is defined based on the spherical equivalent (SE) of cycloplegic refraction.

Association of Football Subconcussive Head Impacts With Ocular Near Point of Convergence [PDF]

JAMA Ophthalmology, 2016
An increased understanding of the relationship between subconcussive head impacts and near point of convergence (NPC) ocular-motor function may be useful in delineating traumatic brain injury.To investigate whether repetitive subconcussive head impacts during preseason football practice cause changes in NPC.This prospective, observational study of 29 ...

Relaxation to Fixed Points in the Logistic and Cubic Maps: Analytical and Numerical Investigation

Entropy, 2013
Convergence to a period one fixed point is investigated for both logistic and cubic maps. For the logistic map the relaxation to the fixed point is considered near a transcritical bifurcation while for the cubic map it is near a pitchfork bifurcation. We

RAF near point rule for near point of convergence—a short review

Annals of Eye Science, 2018
RAF near point rule (RNPR) is a routinely used instrument in ophthalmology and optometry practice as well as for research purposes to measure the near point of convergence (NPC). The measurement of NPC is an important criterion for diagnosis and management of convergence insufficiency. The RNPR forms an important tool for ophthalmic clinicians however,

Survival by Race and Ethnicity in Children and Adolescents/Young Adults With Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma: A Pooled Analysis of Children's Oncology Group Trials

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Despite 5‐year survival rates of over 90% among children and adolescents/young adults (CAYAs) with classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), 15%–20% relapse after frontline therapy. Prior analysis of frontline Children's Oncology Group (COG) clinical trials demonstrated that, despite similar rates of relapse, non‐Hispanic Black (NHB) and ...
