The purpose of this study is to identify pathological findings among pigeon breeders in the Salonica area. Fifty-four volunteer breeders with varying intensity of contact with pigeons participated in the study. All the breeders, after filling in a questionnaire that included questions about the
Liquid laundry detergent capsules contain concentrated liquid laundry detergent in a water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol membrane.To review 4652 exposures reported to the United Kingdom National Poisons Information Service (NPIS) and to assess the impact of The major complications with extended wear lenses are due to hypoxia and lens deposits. Certain patients tend to deposit proteins and lipids on the lens surface with daily wear and at a greater frequency during prolonged wear. A build-up of these deposits can be associated with decreased vision,
OBJECTIVE
A four-month extended wear clinical trial was conducted to compare the ocular effects of a high Dk Balafilcon A silicone hydrogel lens and a low Dk HEMA 38.6 per cent H20 soft lens.
METHODS
Twenty-four subjects who were adapted to daily wear of soft lenses wore a high Dk lens in one eye
In a recent report, the Committee on Health Risks of Contact Lenses from the Health Council of the Netherlands evaluated the health risks of contact lens wear in the Netherlands. Contact lens-related eye disease appears to be common, with an incidence of approximately 80,000 persons per year, who
Contact lens materials over the last 20 years have progressed from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) through hydrogels to high Dk rigid and semi-soft lenses. Our understanding of how and why contact lenses affect the eye has also advanced considerably. We now know that: (1) the oxygen demands of the
Introduction: Liquid laundry detergent capsules (also called single-use detergent sacs; laundry pods; laundry packets) have become an increasingly popular household product worldwide. Objectives: To review the composition and mechanisms of toxicity of liquid laundry detergent,
BACKGROUND
Adenoviruses cause a variety of clinical symptoms, involving the respiratory, gastrointestinal, urogenital, and neurologic systems. Only a few of the 55 known serotypes of adenovirus that affect humans can cause outbreaks of respiratory tract infection.
OBJECTIVE
To describe the
BACKGROUND
Acute viral respiratory exacerbation is one of the most common conditions encountered in a paediatric emergency department (PED) during winter months. We aimed at defining clinical predictors of chest radiography prescription and radiographic abnormalities, among infants with
OBJECTIVE
To compare the clinical performance of silicone hydrogel lenses worn for 6- or 30-nights, with monthly replacement, for 3 years.
METHODS
In this 3-year prospective clinical trial, 161 subjects were enrolled and 154 commenced extended wear. Clinical performance was assessed by comparing
High Dk silicone hydrogel lenses have overcome many of the hypoxic problems associated with traditional extended wear, and the popularity of continuous wear with these lens types is increasing. Despite the elimination of hypoxia, several noninflammatory clinical complications have been reported to
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a serious medical problem that causes long-term systemic complications and considerable associated morbidity. DM can cause retinopathy (DRP), maculopathy, cataract, optic neuropathy, defects of eye muscles. DM is a risk factor for acute infectious conjunctivitis, bacterial
BACKGROUND
Chlamydia trachomatis (C. trachomatis) is the most frequent bacterial sexual infection in women. Pregnant women screening is controversial, with asymptomatic colonization occurring in 2-20%, and 40-70% newborns can be infected.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this work is to characterise C.
