Abstract

To assess and compare the horizontal dimensions of the anterior chamber by different anterior segment imaging techniques. Eighty eyes of 40 patients without any ocular disease or previous ocular surgery were recruited and three consecutive measurements of internal anterior chamber diameter and white-to-white distance (WTW) parameters were determined. Mean internal anterior chamber diameter was 11.80 +/- 0.39, 11.56 +/- 0.47, and 11.61 +/- 0.58 mm with Visante-OCT, SL-OCT, and Pentacam, respectively. Mean WTW distance was 11.87 +/- 0.35 and 11.65 +/- 0.32 mm by IOLMaster and OrbscanIIz, respectively. There was no significant difference between Visante-OCT and Pentacam, IOLMaster, and OrbscanIIz (P = .125, .918, and .314). However, detection of mean internal anterior chamber diameter was significantly greater by Visante-OCT than SL-OCT (P = .026). All devices displayed a high intrasession repeatability (repeated measured ANOVA, P > .05). Internal anterior chamber diameter measurements using Visante-OCT, SL-OCT, and Pentacam, and WTW measurements using IOLMaster and OrbscanIIz were easy to handle and demonstrated good repeatability. Although similar results of horizontal anterior chamber diameter were determined by Visante-OCT, Pe...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
