Abstract Introduction The orbital subarachnoid space surrounding the optic nerve is continuous with circulation system for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and can be visualized by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We hypothesized that width (OSASW) correlated serve as a surrogate intracranial pressure (ICP). Our aim was to develop method noninvasive measurement of CSF-pressure (CSF-P) based on MRI-assisted OSASW. Methods prospective observational comparative study included neurology patients...
Nasal prong pressure monitoring (Pnose) is utilized to assess ventilation during sleep. However, it has not been rigorously validated against the gold standard of face-mask pneumotachography (V˙ fm). Therefore, we compared Pnose with V˙ fm in 20 patients suspected sleep apnea nocturnal polysomnography, and analyzed factors affecting accuracy Pnose-derived variables. Patients rated their nasal obstruction on a visual analog scale. Mean ± SE apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) by was 24.0 5.1 h− 1. The...
Abstract Glaucoma is not only an eye disease but also associated with degeneration of brain structures. We now investigated the pattern visual and non-visual structural changes in 25 primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients age-gender-matched normal controls using T1-weighted imaging. MRI images were subjected to volume-based analysis (VBA) surface-based (SBA) whole as well ROI-based lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), cortex (V1/2), amygdala hippocampus. While VBA showed no significant...

TLCPD IOP–CSFP. Results Mean 3.64±4.25 mm Hg in non-glaucomatous population 9.65±8.17...
Purpose.: To analyze the altered amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) brain using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Methods.: Resting-state fMRI was conducted 21 POAG and 22 age-matched healthy control subjects. After ALFF fractional (fALFF) for slow 4 5 bands were calculated, results between controls compared. Then correlations ALFF/fALFF values disease stage analyzed. Results.: Compared controls, showed...
Purpose To evaluate the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and risk factors among patients with self-reported diabetes mellitus in China. Methods The Beijing Eye Study, a population-based study on inhabitants aged 40+ years, included 4439 subjects. Fundus photographs worse eye from participants were graded. Results ready for evaluation filled out questionnaire available 4127 (93.0%) was 235/4127 (5.7%). Among subjects diagnosis diabetes, detected fundus 86 (37.1%) subjects, macular edema 12...
β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) is a nonprotein amino acid produced by diverse species of free-living cyanobacteria found in terrestrial and aquatic environments worldwide. BMAA has been detected as soluble (free) insoluble protein-bound (bound) brains Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Guamanian sclerosis/Parkinsonism dementia complex patients. A toxic reservoir the brain may be excitotoxic to neurons or serve disrupt cerebral protein homeostasis. Here, we report tracer...

To assess the repeatability and agreement of ocular biometric parameters measured using Tomey CASIA SS-1000 Heidelberg ANTERION anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) devices.Both eyes subjects 18 years age or older were scanned three times with under standardized dark lighting. One AS-OCT image along horizontal (temporal-nasal) meridian was analyzed per eye scan. Pupillary diameter (PD) within 15% for all pairwise comparisons. Anterior chamber depth, lens vault, width, angle...
Purpose.: The venous choroidal blood drains through the superior orbital vein into intracranial cavernous sinus. cerebrospinal fluid pressure (CSFP) may thus influence pressure. Since volume and thickness of choroid depend on its pressure, we tested hypothesis whether subfoveal (SFCT) is associated with CSFP. Methods.: population-based Beijing Eye Study 2011 included 3468 individuals. A detailed ophthalmic examination was performed including spectral-domain optical coherence tomography...
