Resveratrol Prevents Cataract Formation by Inhibiting Pro-inflammatory Mediator-induced Dysregulation of Lens Calcium

Apr 2020 DOI 10.14302/issn.2470-0436.jos-20-3303
R. ManikandanCorresponding author

The effect of resveratrol, a free radical scavenger, during cataract development was evaluated in the Wistar rat pup model. This study investigated the possible free radical scavenging potential of resveratrol at 40 mg/ kg body wt dose in selenite-induced cataract in rat pups. Intraperitoneal inject…

Femtosecond Laser in Cataract Surgery: What Makes it Worth it? or not?

Jan 2019 DOI 10.14302/issn.2470-0436.jos-18-2494
Karl StonecipherCorresponding author

This review is designed to look at a prospective evaluation of the use of the femtosecond laser and manual incision standard cataract surgery in one center with one surgeon focusing on visual outcomes and complications. Multiple studies support both benefits, risks, alternatives, and differences bet…

Tissue trauma induced by lens fragmentation patterns in femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery

Sep 2017
Lisa TotoCorresponding author

Background: To evaluate cumulative dissipated energy (CDE), laser time, central corneal thickness and endothelial cell loss after two different fragmentation pattern by means of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS). Methods: Eighty eyes of 80 patients that underwent FLACS were randomi…

Leflunomide-Induced Cystoid Macular Edema: A Rare Case Report

Aug 2024 DOI 10.14302/issn.2470-0436.jos-24-5162
João Alves AmbrósioCorresponding author

Introduction Cystoid macular edema (CME) is a sight-threatening condition caused by fluid accumulation in the macula due to blood-retinal barrier disruption. Various factors, including drug reactions, can lead to retinal fluid leakage. Leflunomide, a disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug, marked sig…

Prevention of Aging and Improvement of Longevity and Life-Span in D-Galactose Induced Aging Rats After Treatment with the Biofield Energy Per Se and Biofield Treated Proprietary Test Formulation

Aug 2020 DOI 10.14302/issn.2474-7785.jarh-20-3425
Snehasis JanaCorresponding author

The study was aimed to investigate the potential benefits of the Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment (the Trivedi Effect®) per se and Biofield Energy Healing treated novel test formulation in male Sprague Dawley rats for their antiaging activity by monitoring aging biomarkers such as brain-derive…

Evaluation of Anti-Aging Activity of the Biofield Energy Treated Novel Test Formulation Using SIRT1 and Telomerase Activity in in Vitro Model

Sep 2019 DOI 10.14302/issn.2474-7785.jarh-19-2994
Snehasis JanaCorresponding author

Telomerase and SIRT1 (member of the sirtuin protein family) along with the lifestyle and diet are the major determinants of aging and its associated diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular disorders. The study objective was to investigate the effect of Consciousness Energy Healing based novel tes…

Porphyromonas Gingivalis Response to Ultrasonication

Mar 2019 DOI 10.14302/issn.2690-4721.ijcm-19-2616
Srinath KamineniCorresponding author

Introduction Ultrasound technology has previously been applied for cataract removal and tennis elbow treatment. Recent data supports the use of ultrasonic debridement in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. No data is available concerning the potential antibacterial properties of a clinical grade,…

Early Versus Late Immunomodulatory Therapy in Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease

Aug 2017 DOI 10.14302/issn.2470-0436.jos-17-1666
Philip P. StoreyCorresponding author

Purpose: To evaluate early versus late immunomodulatory therapy (IMT) for patients following initial diagnosis of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease. Methods: Retrospective review including all VKH patients seen 5/1/2014 to 4/1/2016 at LAC+USC. Early IMT was defined as starting an immunomodulatory a…

Transiently Raised IOP Equivalent to That Experienced During Ocular Surgery Causes Moderate Inflammation but does not Affect Retinal Function or Result in Retinal Ganglion Cell Loss in An Animal Model

May 2017 DOI 10.14302/issn.2470-0436.jos-17-1453
Jie ZhangCorresponding author

Purpose: High intraocular pressure (IOP) is known to result in retinal ganglion cell (RGC) loss, both with chronically raised intraocular pressure (such as with glaucoma) and with acute raises in pressure (due to injury or acute angle closure). Because IOP is often raised during ocular surgery, the…

Superior Sclera Versus Temporal Corneal on Steep Axis Incision to Correct Pre-Existing Corneal Astigmatism Less Than 1.5 D

Jan 2015 DOI 10.14302/issn.2470-0436.jos-14-572
Kavita BhatnagarCorresponding author

Purpose: Cataract is the leading cause of blindness worldwide. Even in an uneventful cataract surgery, surgically induced astigmatism remains the major hurdle in attaining good unaided visual acuity post surgery. If pre-existing corneal astigmatism is not corrected at the time of surgery, it will re…
