To determine whether impaired or absent stereopsis affects the ability to perform simulated microsurgical tasks.University of Edinburgh, United Kingdom.Prospective randomized cross-over study.Visual acuity and stereoacuity were measured. A band-pass filter was placed over nondominant eye reduce 150 seconds an arc (partial stereopsis), completely occluded (absent stereopsis). Participants completed a computerized surgical simulator task 3 times with testing order (normal stereopsis, partial...
Infection is a rare cause of panhypopituitarism and has not been reported in the context Lemierre's syndrome. We present case previously well 19-year-old man, who presented acutely unwell with meningitis sepsis. Fusobacterium necrophorum was isolated from peripheral blood cultures identified on cerebrospinal fluid 16S rDNA Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Imaging demonstrated internal jugular vein thrombosis subsequent cavernous venous sinus thrombosis. Pituitary function tests were...
Paediatric cataracts can present a diagnostic dilemma to ophthalmologists. Next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) has been promoted as tool expedite the diagnosis of an underlying cause in such cases.1 The authors unusual case bilateral 11-year-old girl first presenting feature new type 1 diabetes mellitus. Prompt and subsequent management this potentially life-threatening condition were achieved through careful history taking targeted biochemical testing. feel highlights significance simple...

Objective: To investigate the effects of 400 mg caffeine ingestion on previously untrained students’ performance simulated microsurgical tasks.Methods: 10 students were included and randomised into two groups: a control or group. Each group received 15-min orientation session simulator (VRMagic eyesi surgical simulator, Mannheim, Germany). then performed three repetitions each task: navigation task, forceps task bimanual task.

Background: Central Corneal Thickness (CCT) is an indicator of corneal health status as well being essential tool in assessment and management diseases. It important factor the diagnosis glaucoma it affects measurement intraocular pressure. However, pattern central thickness our population not known. Our study aimed to describe CCT measurements their variation with age sex among patients attending eye clinic at Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH), Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Methodology: A...
A 46-year-old man presented with worsening vision in the context of long-standing optic disc changes, bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, chronic aseptic meningitis, rash, arthralgia and raised inflammatory markers. The differential diagnoses neoplasia, infection inflammation are discussed. We highlight a condition that can present to adult neurologists, successful diagnosis leading targeted treatments transform patient outcomes.
