  2. 1. Comparing retinal function and structure in diabetic maculopathy and retinal detachment with ff-ERG and a combination of mfERG and OCT

    Author : Kristina Holm; Lund Oftalmologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mfERG; OCT; ff-ERG; diabetes; macular edema; retinal detachment; scleral buckling; retinectomy;

    Abstract : Diabetic maculopathy and retinal detachment, especially involving macula, are potentially sight-threatening conditions. Previous evaluations of retinal function, and treatment of these conditions have been subjective methods depending on the examiner or the collaboration with the examined patient. READ MORE

  4. 2. The Drosophila POU/Oct factors: multifaceted proteins

    Author : Priya Gohel; Ylva Engström; Mariana Wolfner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; POU Oct factors; transcriptional regulation; innate immunity; developmental processes; mitotic spindles; chromosome segregation; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Abstract : Dysregulation of physiological and cellular processes underlies various pathological conditions, including cancer and inflammatory disorders. Unraveling the molecular mechanisms driving these processes is crucial. READ MORE

  5. 3. Electrophysiology and optical coherence tomography in acquired and hereditary retinal disorders

    Author : Patrik Schatz; Lund Oftalmologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Retinal degeneration; multifocal ERG; Oftalmologi; Ophtalmology; OCT;

    Abstract : In this thesis, retinal function in general, as well as central retinal function and structure are described in selected forms of acquired and hereditary retinal disorders, in order to improve our understanding of underlying pathogenic mechanisms. This comparison has been made possible during the last years, through the relatively recent development of multifocal ERG (mfERG) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) for the analysis of central retinal function and structure, respectively.

  6. 4. Electrophysiology, Optical Coherence Tomography and Molecular Genetic Analysis in Patients with Glaucoma and/or Best Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy as Part of Clinical Care

    Author : Elisabeth Wittström; Lund Oftalmologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glaucoma; BVMD; BEST1; full-field ERG; mfERG; OCT;

    Abstract : Glaucoma is a common ophthalmic disease with multifactorial aetiology. There is growing evidence that glaucoma is a disease of the entire retina and not only the inner retina. READ MORE

  7. 5. Morphometry of the Optic Nerve Head as a Diagnostic Tool for Glaucoma

    Author : Camilla Sandberg Melin; Per Söderberg; Boel Bengtsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; optic nerve head; ONH; nerve fibers; glaucoma; optical coherence tomography; OCT; Pigment epithelium central limit-inner limit of the retina minimal distance; PIMD; PIMD-2π; Segmental PIMD-2π; confocal scanning laser tomography; HRT; NRA; variation; variability; variance; loss rate; follow-up.;

    Abstract : Glaucoma is a chronic optic nerve head (ONH) disease. Gradual retinal ganglion cell and nerve fiber loss lead to morphological ONH change and visual field defects. Initial loss is often focal. Rate of progression and life expectancy guide treatment. READ MORE
