PURPOSE To determine the morphometric parameters of filtration blebs of a valved aqueous humor drainage device. MATERIALS AND METHODS Orbital magnetic resonances imaging (MRI) was taken after implantation of an Ahmed valve (FP7 model). Outcomes of the analysis were intraocular pressure (IOP) and the bleb's morphometric analysis (volume, height, major and minor axis). Associations between IOP ...

Phentermine and related amphetamine-like compounds have been widely used as appetite suppressants, especially in the US [1]. They have been associated with systemic and pulmonary hypertension, heart valvular abnormalities [2] and cerebral vasculopathy [3]. We report a patient who presented with renal impairment and peripheral vasculopathy, whilst on long-term therapy with phentermine for narcol...

Dust is an environmental and health hazard. In this study, a new technology for dust suppressant introduced using soybean urease with optimal cementing solution. Calcium carbonate produced by solution, which bonds the soil particles towards suppressant. A laboratory wind tunnel test carried out to examine its effectiveness discover possible optimization solutions. Several factors, including mea...

A series of thiourea derivatives (7-23, 25-27) of 1-aminotetrahydronaphthalene (4) and 1-amino-2-hydroxytetrahydronaphthalene (5) were synthesized in single pot in 48-90% yield and evaluated for their anorexigenic activity. Among them compounds 10, 14, 15, 16 and 22 exhibited significant anorexigenic activity without any antidepressant effect and provided a new structural lead for appetite supp...
