3. RHEGMATOGENOUS RETINAL DETACHMENT

Author

Brosh, Koby, Semionov, Anastasia, Hanhart, Joel, Goldberg, Mordechai, and Potter, Michael J.

Abstract

Postoperative retinal demarcation lines on infrared imaging serve as crucial indicators gradually fading with time. These lines may unveil the progression of subretinal fluid, particularly in cases of macula-split retinal detachment. Additional studies are needed to elucidate the mechanism and factors influencing the appearance and evolution of these lines.

Abstract

To investigate music selection as a treatment for anxiety during Intravitreal injections (IVI) for individuals of varying cultures. 106 individuals were enrolled in this randomized controlled study. Individuals were randomized into one to three categories: (1) a control group in which the IVI procedure was performed without music (n = 35), (2) an experimental group in which the music was selected by the physician (n = 36), (3) an experimental group in which the music was selected by the patient (n = 35). After the procedure, all patients responded to a questionnaire regarding their level of experienced anxiety, pain and discomfort (grade 0–10). The primary outcome was anxiety level during the procedure. The experimental group in which patients selected music had higher number of patients with low anxiety score compared to the other groups (anxiety score <4 in 19,18 and 27 patients, respectively, p =.04). Interestingly, patients who answered the questionnaire in Arabic were less likely to desire music on subsequent injections compared to Hebrew and English speakers (52% Vs 78% Vs 100%, p =.02). Music was deemed by both experimental groups as an effective method to induce relaxation (average score of 6.6 and 7.2 in group 2 and 3, respectively). Preference for music on subsequent injections was increased in both experimental groups compared to the control group (P <.01). Patients in the third group preferred music selection on future injections more than the other groups (P <.01). Music selection may be an effective way to reduce anxiety levels during IVI. Preference for music during future injections is higher in patients who were exposed to music during IVI and may be influenced by culture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

A method is presented for calculating the conformational free energy of a molecule in all degrees of freedom. The study reveals that the method using harmonic approximation with finite integration ranges along with Mode scanning gives excellent accuracy.

30. Small molecule pKa prediction with continuum electrostatics calculations

Abstract

Application of the continuum electrostatic calculations to determine pKa values of different experimentally well-characterized diamines and diacids reveals that this pure electrostatic method is capable of determining pka values even in small molecules. Use of the partial charge model increases the efficiency of the method in determining the intrinsic pKa values of different groups. Application of the electrostatic method to diamines produces good results, while the poor results for diacids improve with increasing distance between the groups.

Subjects
Vermiculite -- Environmental aspects, Vermiculite -- Research, Vermiculite -- Composition, Earth sciences
Abstract

The information on various application of vermiculite, a hydrated magnesium-aluminum-iron silicate mineral is presented. Vermiculite, due to its fire resistance, insulating properties, high liquid absorption capacity, inertness and low density is used in construction and horticulture.
