A double-label study of efferent projections from the Edinger-Westphal nucleus in goldfish and kelp bass [PDF]
, 1988 The Edinger-Westphal nucleus in goldfish was identified by retrograde labeling from the ciliary ganglion. In the same animals a few neurons near this nucleus (perinuclear Edinger-Westphal neurons) were labeled by a different retrograde tracer injected ...

Recurrent isolated oculomotor nerve palsy caused by schwannoma in a pediatric patient
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018 Isolated schwannomas of motor nerves to extraocular muscles are uncommon. In addition, most previous studies on oculomotor nerve schwannoma discuss adult patients, and pediatric cases are rare.

The intimate nature of oculomotor muscles contracture [PDF]
Arquivos Brasileiros de Oftalmologia, 2010 The author makes comments about the shortening and loss of elasticity of the oculomotor muscle that remains slack for some time (contracture), by means of a reasoning based on the Hooke s law and on the papers carried out to demonstrate that a muscle that remains relaxed for some time suffers a shortening due to loss of sarcomeres on the longitudinal ...

Does extraocular muscle proprioception influence oculomotor control? [PDF]
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2000 Disorders of ocular motility are encountered on a regular basis within ophthalmic practice. They include a wide variety of conditions from non-paralytic strabismus commonly seen in paediatric clinics to acquired restrictive and paralytic conditions, which may be indicative of more serious underlying pathology.

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Prevents the Downregulation of the Cholinergic Phenotype in Axotomized Motoneurons of the Adult Rat [PDF]
, 2018 Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was initially characterized by its activity on the vascular system. However, there is growing evidence indicating that VEGF also acts as a neuroprotective factor, and that its administration to neurons suffering ...

MRI findings of contralateral oculomotor nerve palsy in Parry-Romberg syndrome
American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2018 Purpose: To study a case of right Parry Romberg syndrome associated with contralateral oculomotor nerve palsy using high-resolution cerebral and orbital magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Observations: There were no brain MRI abnormalities. However, there
