SIMULTANEOUS VITREORETINAL SURGERY AND PENETRATING KERATOPLASTY WITHOUT A KERATOPROSTHESIS OR ENDOSCOPY FOR VITREORETINAL DISEASE ASSOCIATED WITH CORNEAL OPACITY

We evaluated the visual outcome of combined penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) and 25G pars plana wd80efzx vitrectomy (PPV) performed without a temporary keratoprosthesis or endoscopy in a patient with vitreoretinal disease complicated by severe corneal opacity.The patient was a 68-year-old woman who had severe corneal opacity and silicone oil in her l

Genomic integrity is constantly threatened by sources of DNA damage, internal and external alike.Among the most cytotoxic lesions is the DNA double-strand break (DSB) which arises from the cleavage of both strands of the double helix.Cells boast a considerable set of defences to both prevent and repair these breaks and drugs which derail these proc

Retrograde amnesia for autobiographical memories is a commonly self-reported cognitive side-effect of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), but it is unclear to what extent objective performance differs between ECT-exposed and ECT-unexposed patients with depression.We investigated the association between exposure to brief-pulse (1.0 ms) bitemporal or hi

ABSTRACT: The novel variant IBDV (nVarIBDV, genotype A2dB1), characterized by bursal atrophy of fabricius and decreased lymphocytes, has been emerging on a large scale in Asia (including China) since late 2018.nVarIBDV is a new threat to the poultry industry, yet the currently licensed commercial vaccines, including the live viral vector vaccine, I
