Two volunteers were exposed to various airborne concentrations of triethylamine. Levels of 18 mg/m3 for eight hours caused subjective visual disturbances (haze and halos) and objective corneal oedema. The effects faded within hours after the end of exposure. The visual disturbances are unpleasant and may cause accidents at work and in traffic after the end of work.

BACKGROUND Visual disturbances associated with isolated sphenoid sinus inflammatory diseases (ISSIDs) are easily misdiagnosed due to the nonspecific symptoms and undetectable anatomical location. The main objective of this retrospective case series is to investigate the clinical features of visual disturbances secondary to ISSIDs. METHODS Clinical data of 23 patients with unilateral or bilate...

Deficits in visual acuity, visual field, and oculomotor function are commonly detected after repair of cerebral aneurysms. However, when these deficits are absent, it does not mean that other potential visual deficits also are absent. Here, we report three cases that after complete recover from surgical repair of cerebral aneurysms presented minimal visual acuities of about 20/20 and no visual ...

Outcomes assessed in the review The presence or severity of PMS, evaluated through the use of daily prospective self-administered questionnaires (e.g. Moos Menstrual Distress Questionnaire, Calendar of Premenstrual Experiences, and the Premenstrual Assessment Form), daily visual analogue scales, global assignment after each cycle, or one-time assessment. Interventions were recorded as having po...

OBJECTIVE Two perspectives are offered on the transition outcomes of youth with emotional disturbances (ED) using data from the National Longitudinal Transition Study (NLTS) and the National Longitudinal Transition Study-2 (NLTS2). The first perspective compares two cohorts of youth ages 18-21 who were out of high school up to 4 years in 1990 and 2005 on their rates of high school completion, p...

Data on menstrual experiences and their impact on quality of life among women in developing countries are scant. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of dysmenorrhoea among adolescent girls in Sidon city and suburbs, Lebanon, and to explore its possible relationship with menstrual experience. In a cross-sectional design, 389 post-menarcheal schoolgirls aged 13-19 years were select...

Several studies have demonstrated disturbances of visual perception in patients suffering from cerebellar disease. In an attempt to determine the cause of these visual disturbances and thereby the cerebellar contribution to vision, we designed two sets of experiments in which we tested (i) the possibility of a general magnocellular deficit in cerebellar disease and (ii) the alternative possibil...

Two rare suprachiasmal carotid-ophthalmic artery aneurysms, one large and one giant, were discovered incidentally. The patients had no visual disturbances. Angiography showed superomedial projection of the sac. The aneurysms were clipped via an ipsilateral pterional approach. A suprachiasmal carotid-ophthalmic artery aneurysm is indicated when preoperative angiography reveals a superomedial car...
