An Innovative Technique to Evaluate Quantitative Pupillary Light Reflex by Dynamic Pupillometry using Infrared Videography [PDF]
Introduction: An innovative approach was designed to quantify the pupillary light reflex using infrared and white light illumination. This method is convenient to detect pupil edges, area and the diameter of pupil contour recorded in different ambient ...

The pupillary light reflex distinguishes between circadian and non-circadian delayed sleep phase disorder (DSPD) phenotypes in young adults. [PDF]
This study investigated the utility of the pupillary light reflex as a method of differentiating DSPD patients with delayed melatonin timing relative to desired/required sleep time (circadian type) and those with non-delayed melatonin timing (non ...

The pupillary light response reveals the focus of covert visual attention. [PDF]
The pupillary light response is often assumed to be a reflex that is not susceptible to cognitive influences. In line with recent converging evidence, we show that this reflexive view is incomplete, and that the pupillary light response is modulated by ...

We evaluated whether the pupillary light reflex is altered in benign essential blepharospasm patients. Twenty-three patients with benign essential blepharospasm, 47 with reflex blepharospasm, and 29 dry eye disease controls were included. Pupillary light

Cortical modulation of pupillary function: systematic review [PDF]
Background The pupillary light reflex is the main mechanism that regulates the pupillary diameter; it is controlled by the autonomic system and mediated by subcortical pathways.

The Pupillary Light Reflex in Borderline Diabetics
Computerized IR videopupillography, using an open-loop photic stimulator, was used to compare the reflexes of borderline diabetics with overt non-insulin-dependent diabetics and with age- and sex-matched non-diabetic healthy controls. The patients were all male, aged 41–59 years.

Estimation of operators’ fatigue using optical methods for determination of pupil activity
Introduction The purpose of this study was to develop and initially validate an objective, yet quick, method for assessment of human fatigue. This aim can be achieved by the use of an optical, non-contact method of analysis of pupil activity.

Pupillary responses to single and sinusoidal light stimuli in diabetic patients
We examined effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the pupillary light reflex (PLR). Phasic pupillary response to a single light stimulus (200 ms) (pPLR) and to continuous sinusoidal stimuli with four different frequencies (0.1, 0.3, 0.7, 1.3Hz) (cPLR ...

Comparing two captive bolt devices on market age Pekin ducks
Summary: The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of 2 captive bolt devices in the euthanasia of market age Pekin ducks. One hundred twenty ducks were euthanized using either a commercially available captive bolt device (Zephyr-EXL, n ...
