Turkish Neurosurgery (20)3 2010
Abstract
83.3 % of the patients in the non-duroplasty and 73.3% of the patients in the duroplasty group were symptom free. The ratio of syrinx regression was 28+/-10% in the non-duroplasty and 36+/-33% in the duroplasty group. The tonsillodural distance was 3.1+/-1.8 mm in the non-duroplasty and 4.6+/-2.1 mm...

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of red ginseng (Panax ginseng) extracts on the visual process in bullfrog's eye. The results obtained indicated that both dark-adapted and light-adapted ERG b-wave peak amplitude was increased with red ginseng treatment. Furthermore, the...

Abstract
Genetic analysis of two Pakistani families with retinal disease enabled the establishment of the correct diagnosis of achromatopsia. Two novel mutations were identified in CNGA3 and CNGB3 that are both specifically expressed in cone photoreceptors. Re-evaluation of the clinical status revealed that...

Abstract
The deposits were absent in the surface epithelium and basal cells of the central cornea before and after treatment. We found crystals mainly in the anterior and medium stroma; they had various shapes; were intracellular, rectangular, or fusiform; and showed hyperreflectivity. The posterior stroma s...

Abstract
We establish a genetic model of photophobia by engineering increased sensitivity to CGRP in mice. These transgenic mice (nestin/hRAMP1) display light-aversive behavior that is greatly enhanced by intracerebroventricular injection of CGRP and blocked by coadministration of the CGRP receptor antagonis...

Abstract
Characteristic signs are loss of visual acuity, photophobia and central scotoma. The diagnosis of cone dystrophy is determined by a full-field electroretinogram (ERG). Fundus and near-infrared autofluorescence as well as optical coherence tomography allow detection of retinal structural abnormalitie...

Abstract
Seeing the light is an expression that usually connotes a conceptual grasp of meaning in all its complexity, while the perception of light is not the issue. In this paper, the authors present a patient with an exquisite light sensitivity that disturbs her sleep; she is "seeing the light" in a sympto...

Cephalalgia (28 Suppl 1) 2008
Abstract
The prevalence of cervicogenic headache (CEH) is only vaguely known. Furthermore, it is a common belief that in migraine without aura (MwoA), neck symptoms frequently occur and that MwoA and CEH may pathogenetically be intimately related. In the Vågå study, 1838 18-65-year-old citizens (88.6%...

Optometry and Vision Science (84)12 2007
Abstract
Of 162 patients, 96 patients had binocular photophobia (60.2%). Photophobia was found to be associated with an angle of exodeviation at distance >25 Prism Diopter (Delta) (p = 0.02), and stereoacuity worse than 60 s (p = 0.02). We defined satisfactory surgical outcome as a deviation of <10 Delta. Of...
