Correlation between Tear Osmolarity and Tear Meniscus [PDF]
Optometry and Vision Science, 2014 ABSTRACT Purpose To examine the relationship between tear meniscus height (TMH) and subjective meniscus grading (subjective tear meniscus [TM]) with tear osmolarity. Methods Tear osmolarity measurements (using TearLab)

MicroRNA-762 is upregulated in human corneal epithelial cells in response to tear fluid and Pseudomonas aeruginosa antigens and negatively regulates the expression of host defense genes encoding RNase7 and ST2. [PDF]
, 2013 Mucosal surfaces regulate defenses against infection and excessive inflammation. We previously showed that human tears upregulated epithelial expression of genes encoding RNase7 and ST2, which inhibited Pseudomonas aeruginosa invasion of human corneal ...

Finite-distance singularities in the tearing of thin sheets [PDF]
, 2011 We investigate the interaction between two cracks propagating in a thin sheet. Two different experimental geometries allow us to tear sheets by imposing an out-of-plane shear loading.

How Our Gaze Reacts to Another Person’s Tears? Experimental Insights Into Eye Tracking Technology
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Crying is an ubiquitous human behavior through which an emotion is expressed on the face together with visible tears and constitutes a slippery riddle for researchers. To provide an answer to the question “How our gaze reacts to another person’s tears?,”

How Geometry Controls the Tearing of Adhesive Thin Films on Curved Surfaces [PDF]
, 2011 Flaps can be detached from a thin film glued on a solid substrate by tearing and peeling. For flat substrates, it has been shown that these flaps spontaneously narrow and collapse in pointy triangular shapes. Here we show that various shapes, triangular,

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Clinical and Translational Allergy, 2022 Background Although immunoglobulin E (IgE) increases significantly in tears and serum during seasonal allergic conjunctivitis (SAC), it is unclear whether tear total IgE can reflect the severity and prognosis of SAC more accurately than serum total IgE ...
