Newly Recognized Serous Macular Detachment in Retinal Vascular Disease Serous macular detachment has only recently been recognized to occur in a significant number of eyes with retinal vascular leakage, including diabetic macular edema,1,2 branch retinal vein occlusion,3–5 central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO),6 and hypotony maculopathy.7 These serous retinal detachments associated with retinal...

The only frequent extraocular abnormalities they found, in spite of fairly intense medical investigation, were a raised cerebrospinal fluid protein without pleocytosis and some patients with "rheumatic disorder". They reported seventeen cases, including one female. They drew attention to several previous papers reporting cases similar to their own. Stallard (I954) described six cases of "a pecu...

All RDs are accompanied by some loss of visual function but this will vary depending upon the type of detachment, its size, and retinal location, making it difficult to ascribe one set of symptoms to the condition (Box 71.3). Diagnosing RD is complex with many qualifications. Abnormal vision is the only reliable symptom of RD. But the types of abnormal vision are large and varied: light flashes...

A model is proposed primarily for the classical RNA attenuation regulation of gene expression through premature transcription termination. The model is based on the concept of the RNA secondary structure macrostate within the regulatory region between the ribosome and RNA-polymerase, on hypothetical equation describing deceleration of RNA-polymerase by a macrostate and on views of transcription...

with the aim of a determination of physical properties of date palm male flowers, as well as optimum flower detachment conditions, this study was carried out in two parts. in the first part of the study, the palm groves of khuzestan province were totally surveyed. “ghanami” cultivar was in the end selected to be studied as the superior cultivar in the region. drying up of the male flowers at 70...

The influence of process conditions (substrate loading rate and detachment force) on the structure of biofilms grown on basalt particles in a Biofilm Airlift Suspension (BAS) reactor was studied. The structure of the biofilms (density, surface shape, and thickness) and microbial characteristics (biomass yield) were investigated at substrate loading rates of 5, 10, 15, and 20 kg COD/m3. day with...

PURPOSE To evaluate the risk factors for choroidal detachment after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (MMC). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 420 patients (420 eyes) with glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy with MMC between June 1, 2005 and December 31, 2010 at Kumamoto University Hospital, Japan. Choroidal detachment after trabeculectomy was defined as a solid-appearing ele...

32-year-old Turkish male patient presented with an optic disk pit and serous macular detachment in the left eye. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography revealed serous macular detachment and retinoschisis. After vitrectomy the retina gradually flattened and vision was gradually improved. We aimed to report a case of serous macula detachment secondary to optic pit and long term result of s...

Detachment from work has been proposed as an important non-work experience helping employees to recover from work demands. This meta-analysis (86 publications, k = 91 independent study samples, N = 38,124 employees) examined core antecedents and outcomes of detachment in employee samples. With regard to outcomes, results indicated average positive correlations between detachment and self-report...
