Analysis of the relationship of the central tear meniscus area with the tear film symptomatology and stability [PDF]
, 2019 Purpose: Tear film meniscus evaluation offers a non-invasive indication of the total volume of the tear. This study aimed to analyse the relationship between the central tear meniscus area with symptomatology and tear film stability. Material and methods:

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

Time-course observation of tear film dynamics during VR headset use
Scientific ReportsDry eye disease is characterized by tear film instability, often linked to a reduced blink rate during prolonged visual display use. Although blink suppression during virtual reality (VR) headset use has been reported, its effect on tear film stability ...

Differential time-course tear film quantitative changes following limbal relaxing incisions
BMC Ophthalmology, 2020 Background The study aims at evaluating the time-course changes of pre-corneal tear film after simultaneous phacoemulsification and limbal relaxing incisions (LRIs) performed in 2 groups of patients; group-A had vertical and group-B had horizontal LRIs ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most debilitating and common muscular dystrophies. Despite its severity, no approved therapy exists for FSHD patients. However, several therapeutic candidates are currently under development, and some have recently entered clinical trials, marking the need for reliable ...

Organization of lipids in the tear film: a molecular-level view. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Biophysical properties of the tear film lipid layer are studied at the molecular level employing coarse grain molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with a realistic model of the human tear film. In this model, polar lipids are chosen to reflect the current

Impact of MgO Additions on the Oxidation Resistance and Compression Behavior of Vanadium Alloys
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.An increase in oxidation resistance at 600 °C is achieved for alloys containing more than 2.5 wt.% MgO. It has been established that, along with V2O5, MgO6V2, and Mg2O7V2 are formed, which are presumed to enhance oxidative stability. Furthermore, the possible transformation of Mg‐vanadates through reaction with CO2, which presumably occurs in this ...
