Abstract: Purpose: To assess the effect of intravitreal aflibercept on pigment epithelial detachment (PED) secondary to occult choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in treatment-naive patients. Patients and methods: Retrospective analysis of thirty-six patients (thirty-eight eyes) with mean age 77 (SD ± 7), who were treated with aflibercept 2.0 mg (Eylea, Bayer) at the Department of Ophthalmology of 1st Faculty of Medicine of the Charles University and the Military University Hospital Prague. All patients were treated in fixed regimen, which means 3 loading doases 1 month apart, followed by further 2-monthly doses over total 12-month period. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was evaluated on Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts. Diameters as PED height, width and central retinal thickness (CRT) were assesed using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. All previously mentioned were analyzed et the baseline and than at every visit. Therapy complications were also evaluated. Results: Borderline significant improvement in the mean of BCVA score of 3.2 letters (SD ± 11.6, p = 0.05) at the end of follow-up period was observed. Mean PED height at 12 months significantly decreased by 140 µm (SD ± 238, p < 0.01). Reductions in PED height were correlated with reductions in central macular thickness (R = 0.94, p < 0.001) simultaneously with PED width (R = 0.45, p < 0.01). There was no significant correlation between PED height decrease and visual acuity. PED rupture was observed in 3 eyes (8 %). Conclusion: Aflibercept intravitreal therapy in fixed regimen in patients with PED secondary to occult CNV shows great anatomical effect. However, correlation between PED diameters and visual acuity was not observed.

The objectives of the Observatory are to probe the origin and characteristics of cosmic rays above 1017 eV and to study the interactions of these, the most energetic particles observed in nature. The Auger design features an array of 1660 water Cherenkov particle detector stations spread over 3000 km2 overlooked by 24 air fluorescence telescopes. In addition, three high elevation fluorescence telescopes overlook a 23.5 km2, 61-detector infilled array with 750 m spacing. The Observatory has been in successful operation since completion in 2008 and has recorded data from an exposure exceeding 40,000 km2 sr yr. This paper describes the design and performance of the detectors, related subsystems and infrastructure that make up the Observatory., Comision Nacional de Energia Atomica, Fundacion Antorchas, Gobierno De La Provincia de Mendoza, Municipalidad de Malargue, NDM Holdings and Valle Las Lenas, Australian Research Council, National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), Ciencia Tecnologia e Inovacao (FINEP), Carlos Chagas Filho Foundation for Research Support of the State of Rio de Janeiro (FAPERJ), Fundacao de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP) 2010/07359-6 1999/05404-3, Ministerio de Ciencia e Tecnologia (MCT), Brazil, Ministry of Education, Youth & Sports - Czech Republic LG13007 7AMB14AR005 CZ.1.05/2.1.00/03.0058, Grant Agency of the Czech Republic Czech Republic Government 14-17501S, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Region Ile-de-France, Departement Physique Nucleaire et Corpusculaire PNC-IN2P3/CNRS, Departement Sciences de l'Univers (SDU-INSU/CNRS), Institut Lagrange de Paris, French National Research Agency (ANR) ANR-11-IDEX-0004-02 ANR-10-LABX-63, Federal Ministry of Education & Research (BMBF), German Research Foundation (DFG), Finanzministerium Baden-Wurttemberg, Helmholtz Alliance for Astroparticle Physics (HAP), Helmholtz Association, Ministerium fur Wissenschaft und Forschung, Nordrhein Westfalen, Ministerium fur Wissenschaft, Forschung und Kunst, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany, Istituto Nazionale Astrofisica (INAF), Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), Ministry of Education, Universities and Research (MIUR), Gran Sasso Center for Astroparticle Physics (CFA), CETEMPS Center of Excellence, Italy, Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnologia (CONACyT), Ministerie van Onderwijs, Cultuur en Wetenschap, Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO), FOM (The Netherlands) Netherlands Government, National Centre for Research and Development ERA-NET-ASPERA/01/11 ERA-NET-ASPERA/02/11, National Science Centre, Poland 2013/08/M/ST9/00322 2013/08/M/ST9/00728 HARMONIA 5 - 2013/10/M/ST9/00062, Portuguese national funds, FEDER funds within COMPETE - Programa Operacional Factores de Competitividade through Fundacao para a Ciencia e a Tecnologia, Portugal, Romanian Authority for Scientific Research ANCS, CNDI-UEFISCDI 20/2012 194/2012 1/ASPERA2/2012 ERA-NET PN-II-RU-PD-2011-3-0145-17 PN-II-RU-PD-2011-3-0062, Programme for research - Space Technology and Advanced Research - STAR, Romania 83/2013, Slovenian Research Agency - Slovenia, Comunidad de Madrid Instituto de Salud Carlos III, European Union (EU), Spanish Government, Xunta de Galicia, European Community, Spain FP7-PEOPLE-2012-IEF-328826, Science & Technology Facilities Council (STFC), United States Department of Energy (DOE) DE-AC02-07CH11359 DE-FR02-04ER41300 DE-FG02-99ER41107 DE-SC0011689, National Science Foundation (NSF) 0450696, Grainger Foundation, USA, National Foundation for Science & Technology Development (NAFOSTED), Marie Curie-IRSES/EPLANET, European Particle Physics Latin American Network, European Union (EU) PIRSES-2009-GA-246806, UNESCO

Abstract: We present the results of an analysis of data recorded at the Pierre Auger Observatory in which we search for groups of directionally-aligned events (or ‘multiplets’) which exhibit a correlation between arrival direc- tion and the inverse of the energy. These signatures are expected from sets of events coming from the same source after having been deflected by intervening coherent magnetic fields. The observation of several events from the same source would open the possibility to accurately reconstruct the position of the source and also measure the integral of the component of the magnetic field orthogonal to the trajectory of the cos- mic rays. We describe the largest multiplets found and compute the probability that they appeared by chance from an isotropic distribution. We find no statistically significant evidence for the presence of mul- tiplets arising from magnetic deflections in the present data., Facultad de Ciencias Exactas

Abstract: We present the results of searches for dipolar-type anisotropies in different energy ranges above 2.5 × 1017 eV with the surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory, reporting on both the phase and the amplitude measurements of the first harmonic modulation in the right-ascension distribution. Upper limits on the amplitudes are obtained, which provide the most stringent bounds at present, being below 2% at 99% C.L. for EeV energies. We also compare our results to those of previous experiments as well as with some theoretical expectations., We are very grateful to the following agencies and organizations for financial support: Comisión Nacional de Energía Atómica, Fundación Antorchas, Gobierno De La Provincia de Mendoza, Municipalidad de Malargüe, NDM Holdings and Valle Las Leñas, in gratitude for their continuing cooperation over land access, Argentina; the Australian Research Council; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq), Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos (FINEP), Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Rio de Janeiro (FAPERJ), Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP), Ministério de Ciência e Tecnologia (MCT), Brazil; AVCR, AV0Z10100502 and AV0Z10100522, GAAV, KJB300100801 and KJB100100904, MSMT-CRLA08016, LC527, 1M06002, and MSM0021620859, Czech Republic; Centre de Calcul IN2P3/CNRS, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Conseil Régional Ile-de-France, Département Physique Nucléaire et Corpusculaire (PNC-IN2P3/CNRS), Département Sciences de l’Univers (SDU-INSU/CNRS), France; Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF), Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), Finanzministerium Baden – Württemberg, Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft Deutscher Forschungszentren (HGF), Ministerium für Wissenschaft und Forschung,Nordrhein-Westfalen, Ministerium für Wissenschaft, Forschung und Kunst, Baden-Württemberg, Germany; Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF), Ministero dell’Istruzione, dell’Università e della Ricerca (MIUR), Gran Sasso Center for Astroparticle Physics (CFA), Italy; Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (CONACYT), Mexico; Ministerie van Onderwijs, Cultuur en Wetenschap, Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (NWO), Stichting voor Fundamenteel Onderzoek der Materie (FOM), Netherlands; Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Grant Nos. 1 P03 D 014 30 and N N202 207238, Poland; Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, Portugal; Ministry for Higher Education, Science, and Technology, Slovenian Research Agency, Slovenia; Comunidad de Madrid, Consejería de Educación de la Comunidad de Castilla La Mancha, FEDER funds, Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación and Consolider-Ingenio 2010 (CPAN), Generalitat Valenciana, Junta de Andalucía, Xunta de Galicia, Spain; Science and Technology Facilities Council, United Kingdom; Department of Energy, Contract Nos.

Abstract: Erratum: Phys. Rev. D 85, 029902(E) (2012) [http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.85.029902], The Surface Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive to neutrinos of all flavours above 0.1 EeV. These interact through charged and neutral currents in the atmosphere giving rise to extensive air showers. When interacting deeply in the atmosphere at nearly horizontal incidence, neutrinos can be distinguished from regular hadronic cosmic rays by the broad time structure of their shower signals in the water-Cherenkov detectors. In this paper we present for the first time an analysis based on down-going neutrinos. We describe the search procedure, the possible sources of background, the method to compute the exposure and the associated systematic uncertainties. No candidate neutrinos have been found in data collected from 1 January 2004 to 31 May 2010. Assuming an E^-2 differential energy spectrum the limit on the single flavour neutrino is (E^2 * dN/dE) < 1.74x10^-7 GeV cm^-2 s^-1 sr^-1 at 90% C.L. in the energy range 1x10^17 eV < E < 1x10^20 eV., We are very grateful to the following agencies and organizations for financial support: Comisión Nacional de Energía Atómica, Fundación Antorchas, Gobierno De La Provincia de Mendoza, Municipalidad de Malargüe, NDM Holdings and Valle Las Leñas, in gratitude for their continuing cooperation over land access, Argentina; the Australian Research Council; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq), Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos (FINEP), Fundaçao de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Rio de Janeiro(FAPERJ), Fundaçao de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP), Ministerio de Ciencia e Tecnologia (MCT), Brazil; AVCR AV0Z10100502 and AV0Z10100522, GAAV KJB100100904, MSMT-CRLA08016, LC527, 1M06002, and MSM0021620859, Czech Republic; Centre de Calcul IN2P3/CNRS, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Conseil Régional Ile-de-France, Département Physique Nucléaire et Corpusculaire (PNC-IN2P3/CNRS), Département Sciences de l’Univers (SDU-INSU/CNRS), France; Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF), Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), Finanzministerium Baden-Württemberg, Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft Deutscher Forschungszentren (HGF), Ministerium für Wissenschaft und Forschung, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Ministerium für Wissenschaft, Forschung und Kunst, Baden- Württemberg, Germany; Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), Ministero dell’Istruzione, dell’Università e della Ricerca (MIUR), Italy; Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (CONACYT), Mexico; Ministerie van Onderwijs, Cultuur en Wetenschap, Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (NWO), Stichting voor Fundamenteel Onderzoek der Materie (FOM), Netherlands; Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Grant Nos. 1 P03 D 014 30, N202 090 31/0623, and PAP/218/2006, Poland; Fundaçao para a Ciencia e a Tecnologia, Portugal; Ministry for Higher Education, Science, and Technology, Slovenian Research Agency, Slovenia; Comunidad de Madrid, Consejería de Educación de la Comunidad de Castilla La Mancha, FEDER funds, Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación and Consolider-Ingenio 2010 (CPAN), Xunta de Galicia, Spain; Science and Technology Facilities Council, United Kingdom; Department of Energy, Contract Nos.

Subjects: cosmic ray experiments, ultra high energy cosmic ray
Abstract: The Pierre Auger Collaboration has reported evidence for anisotropy in the dis- tribution of arrival directions of the cosmic rays with energies E > Eth = 5.5×10^19 eV. These show a correlation with the distribution of nearby extragalactic objects, including an appar- ent excess around the direction of Centaurus A. If the particles responsible for these excesses at E > Eth are heavy nuclei with charge Z, the proton component of the sources should lead to excesses in the same regions at energies E/Z. We here report the lack of anisotropies in these directions at energies above Eth/Z (for illustrative values of Z = 6, 13, 26). If the anisotropies above Eth are due to nuclei with charge Z, and under reasonable assumptions about the acceleration process, these observations imply stringent constraints on the allowed proton fraction at the lower energies.

Abstract: In this paper we introduce the concept of Lateral Trigger Probability (LTP) function, i.e., the probability for an Extensive Air Shower (EAS) to trigger an individual detector of a ground based array as a function of distance to the shower axis, taking into account energy, mass and direction of the primary cosmic ray. We apply this concept to the surface array of the Pierre Auger Observatory consisting of a 1.5 km spaced grid of about 1600 water Cherenkov stations. Using Monte Carlo simulations of ultra-high energy showers the LTP functions are derived for energies in the range between 10^17 and 10^19 eV and zenith angles up to 65 degree. A parametrization combining a step function with an exponential is found to reproduce them very well in the considered range of energies and zenith angles. The LTP functions can also be obtained from data using events simultaneously observed by the fluorescence and the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory (hybrid events). We validate the Monte Carlo results showing how LTP functions from data are in good agreement with simulations.

Abstract: Construction of the first stage of the Pierre Auger Observatory has begun. The aim of the Observatory is to collect unprecedented information about cosmic rays above 10^18 eV. The first phase of the project, the construction and operation of a prototype system, known as the engineering array, has now been completed. It has allowed all of the sub-systems that will be used in the full instrument to be tested under field conditions. In this paper, the properties and performance of these sub-systems are described and their success illustrated with descriptions of some of the events recorded thus far., La lista completa de autores puede verse en el archivo asociado., Facultad de Ciencias Exactas

Abstract: The performance of the Auger Fluorescence telescope is discussed on the basis of a mass production chain. In order to get a realistic estimate of the detector resolution, a large number of fully simulated CORSIKA showers have been used for this study. The propagation through the atmosphere and the detector response are taken into account and simulated in detail. Results for the the case of monocular reconstruction are presented here. No quality cuts for the event reconstruction have been applied so far. Finally, a schematic overview of the expected event topologies is given together with the display of a real event recently collected.

Abstract: The fluorescence detector, a component of the AUGER project, is designed to observe fluorescent light generated in interactions of high energy cosmic rays with nitrogen atoms in the Earth's atmosphere. This article present several designs of optical filters transmitting in the range 300 nm- 420 nm, where the fluorescent light is emitted. Two approaches are proposed: a system of thin dielectric layers and a combination of suitable glass plate. Quality of different filters is determined according to the value of transmittance in the required wavelength range, the shape of the transmittance curve at the edge of the transmitting window, long-term stability as well as feasibility and cost of their mass production. Selected types of filters were prepared, their parameters measured and compared with predicted values.© (2001) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

Abstract: Available spectroscopic, HST and radio imaging observations of Nova Cygni 1992 (= V 1974 Cyg) were used to derive the kinematic model of expanding nova envelope which consists of two major components: a fast-moving low-mass outer envelope and a slow high-mass inner envelope. Both envelopes can be well approximated by geometrically thin equatorial rings and axially symetric polar blobs. Outer envelope was detected as the outer edge of the radio shell as well as spectroscopically as double absorptions in P Cygni spectral line profiles. The blobs and rings of the inner envelope was resolved as very stable peaks in emission line profiles during the nebular stage. Inner envelope images were taken also by HST. We have calculated the inclination angle of the ring plane against the cellestial sphere using RV of absorption lines, RV of the peaks of emission line profiles and HST image of the shell taken 467 days after the outburst. The resulting value of i = 32o.4 ± 0.6 enabled us to determine the true expansion velocities of the gaseous structures of both envelopes. During the first 50 days after outburst the outer envelope was accelerated by the hot wind from 1500 kms-1 to 5300 km s-1 reaching its terminal velocity. On the day 91 the envelope encountered the preoutburst circumstellar shell (containing material expelled during previous outbursts) and decelerated. The slow high-mass envelope was accelerated by the wind from 830 kms-1 to 895 km s-1 (ring) and 1015 km s-1 (blob).

Abstract: Since the Earth’s atmosphere is transparent to electromagnetic radiation only in few rather narrow windows, space‐based observations are essential for understanding the nature of various astronomical objects. Present status of research in different portions of electromagnetic spectrum is briefly reviewed and some prospects of the development in the future are mentioned. Although space observations are costly, their impact on astrophysics is so substantial that nobody can ignore this area of research. As a consequence, the very nature of astrophysical research is subject to profound change.

Abstract: A program of simultaneous observation of meteors was organized in the period between August 25 and September 3, 1962 at the Ondřejov Observatory. Experienced amateur astronomers, 37 in number, took part in the visual and telescopic observation of meteors according to the following scheme: four visual observers surveyed an area, the centre of which coincided with the axis of the antenna diagram of the Ondřejov meteor radar: elevation 45°, south azimuth. 24 observers used 10 × 80 binoculars with a field of view of 7·3° diameter and kept under control three zones in the altitudes of 30°, 45°, and 60° above the horizon. In each zone, there were four azimuths of the centres of the fields of view, namely 349·5°, 356·5°, 3·5° and 10·5°; each of these areas being observed by two observers. All standard data of meteor statistics were recorded. Time recording was doubled: recorders read the time indicated by light signals on a chronometer, and independently the time was indicated on a film moving in synchronization with the radar recording film. Thus an accuracy in time recording of ±0·5 sec was guaranteed. Unfortunately, the motor of the time camera sometimes caused interference of variable intensity unfavourably affecting the radar data, particularly the radar hourly rates.

Author: J. Grygar and D. Chochol
Subjects: Physics, Stars, Brightness, Symbiotic star, Binary star, Flare up, Astronomy, Roche lobe, Giant star, Light curve
Abstract: PU Vul was discovered by Honda (1979) and Kuwano (1979) due to its conspicuous increase of brightness in the years 1977–79. The analysis of the archive data by Liller and Liller (1979) revealed that the star was about 16.0m – 16.5m since the year 1898 until October 1977, with occasional brightening to 15m in 1926 and 1955. Since November 1977 it started to flare up by 5m until April 1979 when it reached a maximum of 9.0m. After the flat maximum lasting to June 1979, the brightness of the object started to diminish (Nakagiri and Yamashita, 1980). It reached 14.0m in the autumn of 1980, but then it flared up again, and was again of 9.0m in the summer of 1981 (Belyakina et al., 1981). The latter authors have found that the B-V index diminished in the 1980 minimum.

Abstract: Nova LV Vul was observed with the 2m telescope in Ondřejov from April 28 to October 15, 1968. 13 spectrograms in the region 360–505 nm were obtained with dispersions from 1.6 to 7.5 nm mm-1. Some 90 emission lines were identified (H I, He I, He II, O II, O III, /O II/, /O III/, N II, N III, Fe I, Fe II, Fe III, /Fe II/, /Fe III, /Fe V/, C II, C III, Ti II, Cr I, Cr II, V II). Three emission peaks were found in the profiles of broad hydrogen emissions, giving the radial velocities of(-780±30) km s-1, (-160±50) km s-1 and (+650±40) km s-1. From measurements of the emission half-widths we have obtained the average expansion velocity of (1700±300) km s-1. Dorschner et al. (AN 291, 1969, 217) derived the absolute visual magnitude in maximum M = = (-7.5m± 0.5m), and the distance r = (1450±400) pc.

27. A Binary Model for the Symbiotic Star V 1329 Cygni

Subjects: Physics, Binary Independence Model, Symbiotic star, Astrophysics
Abstract: This emission-line object was discovered by Kohoutek in 1969. Its light curve was subsequently reconstructed since 1891. Before 1964, the object fluctuated at around 15m, with occasional deep minima as deep as 2.3m. Its spectrum was late M. In 1964 the object brightened up to 14m and then it reached 11.5m in the middle of the year 1966. Since 1966 the object has been slowly decreasing in brightness. Stienon et al. (1974) suggested that the photometric behaviour prior to the outburst could be explained in terms of an eclipsing binary with a period of 960 days. This is now confirmed by the analysis of the post-outburst photometric data and independently by the investigation of the radial velocities of the emission-line component. We have derived the following spectroscopic elements: Period = 950.07d; γ = 37 ± 6 km/s; K1 = 62 ± 8 km/s; f(M) = 23 M⊙; aisin i = 1160 R⊙. We propose a binary model for the symbiotic object consisting of a bright red giant M5 II with a mass of 25 M⊙, and of a very hot compact star of 1 M⊙. Line profiles of the nebular lines as well as Balmer lines suggest the existence of ejected “polar caps” and an equatorial ring around the hot component, much like in novae. It seems that the hot component accretes the material from the giant via strong stellar wind. Changes in the accretion rate can cause the observed optical fluctuations. The major outburst in 1964-1966 was probably caused by a shell flash which also ionized the expanding nebula surrounding the hot component.

Abstract: Four blue spectrograms, dispersion 15 A'/mm, were obtained in the advanced transition phase of Nova Serpentis 1970 7 below maximum light. The identifications and radial velocities for the emission peaks and samples of intensity tracings around Hfi and H7 are presented. The lines display saddle-shaped profiles, with the blue emission components generally much stronger than the red ones. The velocity separation of both peaks remains constant ( 918 km/s) while the whole structure of the lines was apparently shifted to the red some 50 km/s between JD 2440730 and JD 2440751. In the same time the [0 iii] lines became the most prominent features in the blue spectrum. Key worjs: novae - novae spectra - radiA velocities - Nova Serpentis 1970

Abstract: The advent of the Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) necessitates the development of a powerful framework for the analysis of radio measurements of cosmic ray air showers. As AERA performs ‘‘radio- hybrid’’ measurements of air shower radio emission in coincidence with the surface particle detectors and fluorescence telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory, the radio analysis functionality had to be incorporated in the existing hybrid analysis solutions for fluorescence and surface detector data. This goal has been achieved in a natural way by extending the existing Auger Offline software framework with radio functionality. In this article, we lay out the design, highlights and features of the radio extension implemented in the Auger Offline framework. Its functionality has achieved a high degree of sophistication and offers advanced features such as vectorial reconstruction of the electric field, advanced signal processing algorithms, a transparent and efficient handling of FFTs, a very detailed simulation of detector effects, and the read-in of multiple data formats including data from various radio simulation codes. The source code of this radio functionality can be made available to interested parties on request., La lista completa de autores puede consultarse en el documento o en la página web de la revista., Facultad de Ciencias Exactas

31. Natural course of partially embolized carotid-cavernous fistulas.

Abstract: Background and Purpose: To present the first study analyzing the clinical and radiological course of carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) following incomplete embolization. The study compares magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) to plain angiography (digital subtraction angiography [DSA]) and investigates the long-term ophthalmological impact of residual fistula., Methods: Fistulas classified as partially embolized after the last endovascular treatment were prospectively followed with DSA, MRA, and ophthalmological examination. Both direct and indirect CCFs were included., Results: Twenty-one CCFs were included in the study. Nine (43%) fistulas were direct and 12 (57%) were indirect. A favorable clinical outcome of modified Rankin scale ≤2 was recorded in 19 (90%) patients at the last follow-up. Postinterventional ophthalmologic examinations in 16 patients revealed no negative effects of residual fistulas; five remaining patients refused to undergo further examination. Spontaneous thrombosis and complete occlusion of the CCF were demonstrated in 90% of patients, with a mean time to occlusion of 5.7 ± 4.7 months. Fourteen (66%) patients completed the full imaging follow-up (MRA and DSA). In 21% of these cases, discrepancy between the two imaging modalities was observed-MRA failed to detect persistent fistulas identified by DSA., Conclusions: The goal of CCF treatment is safe and complete embolization. However, if adequate flow reduction is achieved, both direct and indirect CCFs tend to spontaneously thrombose. Residual flow does not result in ophthalmological deterioration until the fistula is completely closed. MRA may not be sufficiently sensitive to detect residues of fistulas including cortical venous drainage. Therefore, complete CCF closure should be confirmed through DSA., (© 2024 American Society of Neuroimaging.)

32. Quantum non-Gaussianity certification of photon number-resolving detectors.

Author: Grygar J, Hloušek J, Fiurášek J, and Ježek M
Abstract: We report on direct experimental certification of the quantum non-Gaussian character of a photon number-resolving detector. The certification protocol is based on an adaptation of the existing quantum non-Gaussianity criteria for quantum states to quantum measurements. In our approach, it suffices to probe the detector with a vacuum state and two different thermal states to test its quantum non-Gaussianity. The certification is experimentally demonstrated for the detector formed by a spatially multiplexed array of ten single-photon avalanche photodiodes. We confirm the quantum non-Gaussianity of POVM elements Π ^ m associated with the m-fold coincidence counts, up to m = 7. The experimental ability to certify from the first principles the quantum non-Gaussian character of Π ^ m is for large m limited by low probability of the measurement outcomes, especially for vacuum input state. We find that the injection of independent Gaussian background noise into the detector can be helpful and may reduce the measurement time required for reliable confirmation of quantum non-Gaussianity. In addition, we modified and experimentally verified the quantum non-Gaussianity certification protocol employing a third thermal state instead of a vacuum to speed up the whole measurement. Our findings demonstrate the existence of efficient tools for the practical characterization of fundamental non-classical properties and benchmarking of complex optical quantum detectors.

Abstract: Purpose: To assess the effect of intravitreal aflibercept on pigment epithelial detachment (PED) secondary to occult choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in treatment-naive patients., Patients and Methods: Retrospective analysis of thirty-six patients (thirty-eight eyes) with mean age 77 (SD ± 7), who were treated with aflibercept 2.0 mg (Eylea, Bayer) at the Department of Ophthalmology of 1st Faculty of Medicine of the Charles University and the Military University Hospital Prague. All patients were treated in fixed regimen, which means 3 loading doases 1 month apart, followed by further 2-monthly doses over total 12-month period. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was evaluated on Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts. Diameters as PED height, width and central retinal thickness (CRT) were assesed using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. All previously mentioned were analyzed et the baseline and than at every visit. Therapy complications were also evaluated., Results: Borderline significant improvement in the mean of BCVA score of 3.2 letters (SD ± 11.6, p = 0.05) at the end of follow-up period was observed. Mean PED height at 12 months significantly decreased by 140 µm (SD ± 238, p < 0.01). Reductions in PED height were correlated with reductions in central macular thickness (R = 0.94, p < 0.001) simultaneously with PED width (R = 0.45, p < 0.01). There was no significant correlation between PED height decrease and visual acuity. PED rupture was observed in 3 eyes (8 %)., Conclusion: Aflibercept intravitreal therapy in fixed regimen in patients with PED secondary to occult CNV shows great anatomical effect. However, correlation between PED diameters and visual acuity was not observed.

Abstract: Eyelid margin tumors require special attention based on both anatomical and histological perspectives. Our aim in this study was to evaluate carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) laser therapy for the treatment of eyelid margin tumors. Fifty-two patients with 55 eyelid margin tumors were included in this study. All tumors were removed with a CO 2 laser, and histopathological evaluation was obtained in 52 cases. All patients were followed up for a mean period of 8.5 months (range 6 to 14 months). There were no bleedings in the intra- and postoperative period; the wounds were dry and reepithelized after 10-14 days and no recurrence occurred during follow-up period. Compared to the surrounding tissue, the treated area was hypopigmented and maximum five eyelashes (average 2.5) were wasted during the procedure. We achieved complete patient and surgeon satisfaction with cosmetic and therapeutic results. CO 2 laser treatment of eyelid margin is a safe and effective procedure; its cosmetic result is beneficial as it does not cause malposition of the eyelid or damage to the lacrimal drainage system if the tumor is located in its proximity.
