Four stars pulsating simultaneously with a dominant period $P_D$$\in$(0.28,0.39) d and an {\it additional} $P_A$$\in$(0.20,0.27) have been identified from among the more than 3000 RR Lyrae observed by Kepler space telescope during NASA's K2 Mission. All four are located in direction of Galactic Bulge ratios, $P_A$/$P_D$, significantly smaller those most double-mode (RRd) stars: $P_A$/$P_D$$\in$...

Abstract Radiation recall dermatitis (RRD) is an extremely rare phenomenon. A variety of factors such as antineoplastic agents, pharmaceutical physical and environmental have been proposed to be the underlying cause RRD. Only a handful cases reported till date, where trastuzumab sought triggering agent. The presentation RRD varies from mild erythematous extensive confluent dermatitis, resolving...

purpose: to evaluate the clinical features, and functional and anatomical outcomes of surgical intervention for pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (rrd). methods: in this retrospective case series, pediatric patients with rrd who had undergone surgical intervention were included. cases were categorized into five main etiological groups: congenital or developmental (48 eyes), traumatic ...

Rosa multiflora Thunb. (Rosaceae) is an invasive species in the USA, where it grows in pastures and wooded areas. A disease of unknown etiology, rose rosette disease (RRD), infects R. multiflora and other Rosa spp. The goal of this research was to determine the effects of habitat and disease symptoms on the abundance of Phyllocoptes fructiphilus Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae), the presumed vector ...

PURPOSE To study the concentrations of amino acids and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in subretinal fluid (SRF) of cases with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). The relevance of the results with postoperative anatomic and functional success in RRD was investigated. METHODS Fifty-three patients were included in this prospective study. The study group consisted of 46 patients w...

BACKGROUND The reverse rate dependence (RRD) of actions of I(Kr)-blocking drugs to increase the action potential duration (APD) and beat-to-beat variability of repolarization (BVR) of APD is proarrhythmic. We determined whether inhibition of endogenous, physiological late Na(+) current (late I(Na)) attenuates the RRD and proarrhythmic effect of I(Kr) inhibition. METHODS AND RESULTS Duration o...

UNLABELLED Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is one of the most frequent causes of failure of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) surgery. AIM To measure the vitreous levels of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) in eyes with RRD and in a control group. MATERIAL AND METHODS A prospective study of 40 patients operated for RRD (...

PURPOSE To determine the outcomes in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) secondary to viral retinitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a retrospective, consecutive, noncomparative, interventional case series of 12 eyes in ten patients with RRD secondary to viral retinitis. Results of vitreous or aqueous biopsy, effect of antiviral therapeutics, time to retinal detachment, cour...

PURPOSE To assess the treatment of pediatric patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) by scleral buckling with chandelier illumination. METHODS Three eyes were treated in three patients, healthy boys aged 7 years, 12 years, and 11 years, with RRD, macular involvement, and small retinal holes, of which two were preoperatively undetectable. Conventional scleral buckling with cryore...

Despite recent anatomical successes of surgical treatment for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), reattachment fails in 1.1-2.5% of cases [1-3]. In addition, even in cases of reattachment, some patients continue to show poor functional results [1, 2]. Prevention of RRD is therefore undoubtedly desirable. We retrospectively examined subjective signs in patients who underwent surgery for RRD...
