Ahmed valve, suture-less implantation: A new approach to an easier technique.
2013
Purpose Tissue adhesives have been used in ophthalmology instead of sutures to minimize the operating time. This case series investigated the effectiveness and safety of use of cyanoacrylate in Ahmed valve implantation through pars plana for refractory glaucoma. Patients and methods Seventeen eyes of 17 patients with refractory glaucoma underwent Ahmed valve scleral suture-less implantation through pars plana with a cyanoacrylate suture of the plate. Refractory glaucoma was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) ≥ 21 mm Hg with antiglaucoma eye drops, good adherence to treatment, and no previous glaucoma surgery. IOP control and development of complications were evaluated during the follow-u…
Preparation of negative ion beams for the determination of the electron affinity of polonium by laser photodetachment
2021
A letter of intent submitted to the ISOLDE and Neutron-Time-of-flight Committee (INTC) at CERN to prepare the negative ion beam as a step towards measuring the electron affinity of polonium at CRIS (ISOLDE).
Measuring music artist success
2012
Musiikkiteollisuudella on vuosikymmeniä kestäneet perinteet artistin menestyksen mittaamisessa. Mittaamisella on pyritty sekä monitoroimaan erilaisten musiikkiin liittyvien prosessien tuloksia ja vaikutuksia, sekä suunnittelemaan ja ohjaamaan artistin uraan liittyvää liiketoimintaa. Musiikkiteollisuus elää rajua murroskautta, jossa vanhat ansaintalogiikat ovet saaneet rinnalleen uusia tapoja tehdä liiketoimintaa ja markkinoiden muutos on myös muuttanut artistin menestyksen mittaamisen toimintamalleja. Musiikkia kuunnellaan tänä päivänä enemmän kuin koskaan ja tästä syystä alalle on syntynyt suuri tarve uusille, paremmin nykytilannetta vastaaville mittareille. Tämä Pro Gradu-tutkielma tarkas…
Macular edema: Miscellaneous.
2010
International audience; Abstract. This article provides the reader with practical information to be applied to the various remaining causes of macular edema. Some macular edemas linked to ocular diseases like radiotherapy after ocular melanomas remained of poor functional prognosis due to the primary disease. On the contrary, macular edemas occurring after retinal detachment or after some systemic or local treatment use are often temporary. Macular edema associated with epiretinal membranes or vitreomacular traction is the main cause of poor functional recovery. However, the delay to observe a significant improvement of vision after surgery should be long, as usually observed in tractional …
Dielectric Spectroscopy of Recycled Polylactide
2014
The effects of multiple mechanical recycling on amorphous polylactide (PLA) were simulated by means of five successive injection-grinding cycles. The influence of the induced thermo-mechanical degradation on the dielectric properties of PLA was analysed. The relaxation spectra were studied in terms of the complex dielectric permittivity (ε0 and ε00) and the dielectric loss tangent, tg(d) in the frequency range from 102 to 107 Hz over the temperature interval from 0 C to 140 C. It was possible to distinguish two relaxations zones, one at low temperatures and high frequencies (b relaxation) and another at higher temperatures and lower frequencies (a relaxation). The individual relaxations wer…
Internal limiting membrane peeling versus no peeling during primary vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: A systematic review and meta-an…
2018
Background Internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling during primary vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) prevents the formation of postoperative macular epiretinal membrane (ERM). However, studies that compared vitrectomy with and without ILM peeling for RRD, have reported controversial outcomes. Objective To assess the efficacy of ILM peeling versus non-ILM peeling during vitrectomy for RRD by a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies. Methods PubMed, Medline, Web of Science, Embase databases, and the Cochrane Library were searched up to April 2018 to identify studies that compared primary vitrectomy with and without ILM peeling for RRD with at least six m…
Effect of head position on refraction in aphakic and phakic silicone-filled eyes.
1997
BACKGROUND The refraction of the eye is altered significantly after the instillation of silicone oil into the vitreous cavity because of the silicone oil's high refractive index. The degree of the refractive change shows diurnal variation and depends on the patient's head position. PATIENTS AND METHODS To analyze the degree and time course of refractive changes with respect to head position, the authors performed objective refraction in five aphakic and five phakic silicone oil-instilled eyes with attached maculae using an automatic hand-held refractometer. In each patient, 25 measurements were taken at short intervals using a hand-held autorefractometer with the patient in different positi…
Testing the direct and moderator effects of the stressor-detachment model over one year : A latent change perspective
2018
ABSTRACTTo test the direct and moderator effects of the stressor–detachment model from a long-term perspective, we investigated whether workload and detachment are related to changes in exhaustion and sleep difficulties over one year. We also examined whether detachment attenuates the relationship between high workload and these outcomes both cross-sectionally and over time. Questionnaire data with 1722 respondents at Time 1 and 1182 respondents at Time 2 were collected. We used a latent change score approach to analyse the data in order to identify intra-individual change among the studied constructs. Our results showed that high workload and low detachment at baseline were related to an i…
Impact of burn-out syndrome in oncology personnel and its improvement through specific interventions
2019
Abstract Background Burn-Out Syndrome (BOS) in oncology nurses, has few experiences reported about its incidence and impact in its three different areas: emotional and physical exhaustion, cynism and despersonalization and no personal nor profesional fulfillment. There is a lack of resources for its diagnosis and management, although it impacts negatively in the patient attention/ care quality and the quality of institutional processes, added the personal impact in personal workers lives. Our objective was to determine the incidence of the BOS in our workers, analyze its causes and reduce in 20% the percentage of workers suffering or at risk of suffering BOS. Methods 23 nurses / nurse assis…
