Abstract

The value of parameters in Hertel's exophthalmometry was measured by using orbit computerized tomography (CT) in this study. We selected images that revealed the center of the lens, the largest eyeball contour and the optic canal on the axial view of orbit CT. Parameters of exophthalmometry on orbit CT were the distance between the lateral orbital rims of both eyes (A), the shortest distance from the corneal center to line A (B), the B/A ratio, the distance between the lateral orbital rim and the medial orbital rim (C), the length of the line passing through the lens center from the apex to line C (D) and the D/C ratio. To compare the center position of the eye, we measure the axial length (E) and the longest distance between the corneal apex and the posterior pole (F) which is parallel to line B. We also calculated B-F/2 and Hertel-F/2 in order to know if there is a difference between measurements of orbit CT and of Hertel's exophthalmometer. Subjects were classified into group 1 (aged 8-13 years old) and group 2 (aged 20 years old more). Sixteen subjects were enrolled in group 1 (32 eyes). In group 2, 100 subjects were male (200 eyes) and 35 were female (70 eyes). In group 1, the mean value was 89.94 mm for A, 13.49 mm for B,...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.
