Artificial intelligence to estimate the tear film breakup time and diagnose dry eye disease

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Abstract Background: The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the diagnosis of dry eye disease (DED) remains limited due to the lack of standardized image formats and analysis models. To overcome this issue, we used the Smart Eye Camera (SEC), a video-recordable slit-lamp device, and collected videos of the anterior segment of the eye.

INTENSE PULSED LIGHT (IPL) – TREATMENT STRATEGY FOR MEIBOMIAN GLAND DYSFUNCTION [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of IMAB
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a primary cause of dry eye syndrome, as the meibomian glands produce lipids that maintain tear film integrity and reduce its evaporation. Blockage of these glands can result in symptoms associated with dry eye disease.

Modelling of Liquid Breakup Mechanisms in Engineering Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Effective design of liquid fuel injection systems is a function of good understanding of liquid breakup mechanisms. A transient liquid breakup model is developed on the classical interfacial breakup theory by modifying the classical linear perturbation ...

Effects of Oral Antihistamines on Tear Volume, Tear Stability, and Intraocular Pressure

open access: yesVision, 2020
The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of two commonly used oral antihistamines—diphenhydramine and loratadine—on tear volume, tear breakup time, and intraocular pressure.

Ocular surface cooling rate associated with tear film characteristics and the maximum interblink period

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The surface of the human eye is covered with a protective tear film that refreshes with each blink. Natural blinking occurs involuntarily, but one can also voluntarily blink or refrain from blinking.

Tear-film breakup time after 1 and 3 months of artificial tear treatment.

open access: yes, 2015
Artificial tear treatment and measurement of TFBUT on 20 patients were performed as described in Methods. Tear-film breakup time (TFBUT) showed a significant elongation after one month of regular use of the artificial tears, the effect did not grow ...

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Tear film breakup pattern using the Smart Eye Camera.

open access: yes, 2019
The figure shows a set of continuous photos taken by the Smart Eye Camera. The upper row shows images from a GVHD-related dry eye disease model mouse. The tear film was breaking up in 3 s after blinking (Tear Film Breakup Time; TFBUT = 3 s).

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Factors associated with ocular surface epithelial damage in patients with primary Sjögren’s syndrome

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2021
Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of systemic parameters, laboratory findings, oral parameters, and other ocular surface parameters on ocular surface epithelial damage in patients with primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS).
