Optic Nerve Head Parameters, Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer and Executive Functions in Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder [PDF]
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between executive functions and optic nerve head parameters (the disc area, the neuroretinal rim volume and cup-to-disc ratio) and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) in medication-free ...

The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Anatomy and evaluation of the optic nerve head
Evaluation of the optic disc is important for the correct diagnosis and follow-up of optic neuropathies, especially glaucoma. The characteristics of the optic disc depend on various factors, including demographic and population aspects, and analysis of these characteristics may vary according to the methods used.

Characterization of the key membrane protein cytochrome Cyc2 from Ghiorsea bivora
This study reports the first detailed biochemical analysis of Cyc2TAG1_1, a cytochrome protein involved in microbial iron oxidation. We produced and purified this enzyme in E. coli, then measured its iron‐oxidizing efficiency, and characterized its electrical and structural properties.

Approach to the Diagnosis and Differentiation of Glaucomatous and Nonglaucomatous Optic Neuropathies
Optic neuropathy denotes degeneration of the retinal ganglion cells with functional and structural impairment of the optic nerve. Functional damage of the optic nerve can be evaluated by checking visual acuity, color vision, pupillary function, and ...

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are a core neuroimaging marker of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Sleep apnoea (SA) is a recognized vascular risk factor, but its associations with regional WMH burden, short‐interval WMH change and cognitive performance in population‐based cohorts remain incompletely defined. We
