Estimation of axial curvature of anterior sclera: correlation between axial length and anterior scleral curvature as affected by angle kappa [PDF]
Background: Though the development and fitting of scleral contact lenses are expanding steadily, there is no simple method to provide scleral metrics for scleral contact lens fitting yet. The aim of this study was to establish formulae for estimation of

DomainScope: A disease network based on protein domain connections [PDF]
Protein domains are highly conserved functional units of proteins. Because they carry functionally significant information, the majority of the coding disease variants are located on domains. Additionally, domains are specific units of the proteins that can be targeted for drug delivery purposes.

Time series analysis of Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to study the (clinical) time-series data of three diseases with complex dynamics: Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. For this purpose, first all of the time series data are embedded in a vector space of suitable dimension and then the correlation dimension of the above mentioned ...

3D Growth and Remodeling Theory Supports the Hypothesis of Staphyloma Formation from Local Scleral Weakening under Normal Intraocular Pressure [PDF]
$\bf{Purpose}$: To assess whether Growth & Remodeling (G&R) theory could explain staphyloma formation from a local scleral weakening. $\bf{Methods}$: A finite element model of a healthy eye was reconstructed, including the following connective tissues: the lamina cribrosa, the peripapillary sclera, and the peripheral sclera.
