Mapping an electron wave function by a local electron scattering probe
2015
A technique is developed which allows for the detailed mapping of the electronic wave function in two-dimensional electron gases with low-temperature mobilities up to $15\times {10}^{6}\;{\mathrm{cm}}^{2}\;{{\rm{V}}}^{-1}\;{{\rm{s}}}^{-1}$. Thin ('delta') layers of aluminium are placed into the regions where the electrons reside. This causes electron scattering which depends very locally on the amplitude of the electron wave function at the position of the Al δ-layer. By changing the distance of this layer from the interface we map the shape of the wave function perpendicular to the interface. Despite having a profound effect on the electron mobiliy, the δ-layers do not cause a widening of …
Widening use of dexamethasone implant for the treatment of macular edema
2017
Vincenza Bonfiglio, Michele Reibaldi, Matteo Fallico, Andrea Russo, Alessandra Pizzo, Stefano Fichera, Carlo Rapisarda, Iacopo Macchi, Teresio Avitabile, Antonio Longo Department of Ophthalmology, University of Catania, Catania, Italy Abstract: Sustained-release intravitreal 0.7 mg dexamethasone (DEX) implant is approved in Europe for the treatment of macular edema related to diabetic retinopathy, branch retinal vein occlusion, central retinal vein occlusion, and non-infectious uveitis. The implant is formulated in a biodegradable copolymer to release the active ingredient within the vitreous chamber for up to 6 months after an intravitreal injection, allowing a prolonged interval of effica…
Multicenter clinical trial of ultrasonic circular cyclo coagulation in patients with open-angle glaucoma: One year results
2014
International audience; Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Ultrasonic Circular Cyclo Coagulation (UC3) procedure with one year of follow-up. Methods: Prospective non comparative interventional clinical study performed in 9 French glaucoma centers. Fifty-two eyes of 52 patients with open-angle glaucoma, intraocular pressure (IOP) > 21 mmHg, an average of 1.7 failed previous surgeries and an average of 3.7 hypotensive medications were insonified with a therapy probe comprising 6 piezoelectric transducers. The 6 transducers were activated, 24 patients (group 1) were treated with a 4 seconds exposure time for each shot and 28 patients (group 2) with a 6 seconds exposure time. C…

Macular sensitivity and structure in idiopathic epiretinal membranes 12 months after surgical treatment
2013
Purpose: To evaluate macular sensitivity (MS) change and its correlation with visual acuity (VA) and Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) in patients with idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM) at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgical treatment.Methods: Prospective, monocenter, interventional case series. We included 49 patients (49 eyes) with an idiopathic ERM scheduled for a surgical treatment. Among these patients, 40 were evaluated at 3 and 6 months (M3, M6), and 31 at 12 months (M12) after ERM and internal limiting membrane removal. At each visit a measurement of best-corrected visual acuity (ETDRS), a microperimetry and a SD-OCT were performed for all patients.Results: The …

La hipoxia fetal valorada mediante métodos objetivos y su relación con el Factor de crecimiento del Endotelio Vascular (VEGF) en gestaciones gemelare…
2008
Introducción Para el correcto desarrollo placentario y fetal, se requieren los procesos de vasculogénesis y angiogénesis que están regulados entre otros por la familia VEGF y el Factor de crecimiento placentario (PlGF) que traducen sus señales uniendose a sus receptores transmembrana, el VEGFR1 y 2. El VEGFR1 tiene una forma soluble ( s.Flt-1) que actúa como un inhibidor del VEGF y del PlGF . El VEGF-A es el principal regulador de la angiogénesis siendo el VEGF-121 y VEGF-165 las 2 isoformas más predominantes e importantes, y estando su expresión regulada por la hipoxia. La hipoxia debida a insuficiencia placentaria se observa en gestaciones gemelares con discrepancia ponderal entre los fet…

Vertex mass distributions in data and one RPV SUSY signal model, for vertices with 0, 1 and $\geq$2 charged leptons in the dilepton $\mu^+\mu^-$ channel. The entries are the number of DVs in each bin, not normalized according to bin size. The signal model is for gluino pair production, with $\tilde{g}\to qq[\tilde{\chi}_1^0\to e\mu\nu/\mu\mu\nu]$ decays, $m(\tilde{g})$ = 1300 GeV, $m(\tilde{\chi}_1^0)$ = 50 GeV and $c\tau(\tilde{\chi}_1^0)$ = 30 mm.
