purpose: to evaluate the corneal endothelial cell density and polymegathism one year after laser assisted keratomileusis using mitomycin c. methods: one hundred and three eyes from 52 patients who underwent laser assisted sub-epithelial keratomileusis using mitomycin c 0.02% for 30 seconds entered this study. corneal endothelial cells were evaluated using specular microscopy before and one year...

PURPOSE The objectives of this study were to examine whether preconditioning can decrease ischemic damage to the retina, by electroretinographic assessment of visual function and by histologic examination of retinal structure; to investigate the time course of the effectiveness of preconditioning; and to determine whether protein synthesis is involved. METHODS Retinal ischemia was produced fo...

The plasmid pSB3 of yeast Zygosacharomyces bisporus has been sequenced. It contains 6,615 base pairs, including a pair of inverted repeats (IR) consisting of 391 base pairs and 3 large open reading frames (ORF). One of the ORFs (A gene) participates in the recombination at the IRs and the other two (B and C genes) are necessary for the stable maintenance of this plasmid. The ARS sequence, which...

BACKGROUND External laryngeal trauma (ELT) is a rare but clinically important injury. OBJECTIVE To perform the first population-based, time series analysis of the epidemiology, management, and outcomes of ELT using an 11-state, inpatient sample database containing more than 54 million patients. PATIENTS Three hundred ninety-two patients with a primary or secondary diagnosis of ELT were iden...

Both systems are public key systems, meaning that there is a secret key used for decryption and a publicly available key used for encrypting. In theory everyone can send you an encrypted message by using the public key (if they know where to obtain it), but you’re the only one who can decrypt the message. Of course these systems rely on the difficulties in obtaining the private key, when knowin...

Complete or partial agenesis of the corpus callosum are rather common developmental abnormalities, resulting in a wide spectrum of clinical neurodevelopmental deficits. Currently, a significant number of these cases are detected by prenatal sonography during second trimester screening examinations. However, major uncertainties about a detailed morphological diagnosis and the clinical significan...
