Blood groups as genetic markers in glaucoma.
A series of 474 mixed cases of glaucoma was assessed to determine whether there were any genetic differences between different types of glaucoma. A careful distinction was made between chronic open angle glaucoma (COAG), acute and chronic angle closure glaucoma, ocular hypertension, low tension glaucoma, patients with large cup disc ratios, and various types of secondary glaucoma including pseu...
متن کاملGenetic markers in glaucoma.
A number of genetic polymorphisms have been investigated in Negro and Caucasoid patients with glaucoma and the results compared with data obtained on healthy controls. A sample of 61 Negro patients was not significantly different from a sample of 238 controls with respect to 18 red cell and serum protein systems; no association between glaucoma and any of these systems could be demonstrated. Th...
متن کاملPreoperative Signs and Symptoms as Prognostic Markers in Nasal Septoplasty
Identification of preoperative signs and symptoms that may predict the outcome of surgery is important, for both patient selection and the development of interventions for improving outcomes. The purpose of this study was to assess the value of some selected preoperative signs and symptoms for predicting outcomes of nasal septoplasty. Patients undergoing septoplasty with or without turbinoplast...
متن کاملPossible prognostic markers in conjunctival dysplasia and squamous cell carcinoma.
Conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can develop from carcinoma in situ or severe dysplasia known as conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia and SCC are histopathologically well-defined conditions. However, it is difficult to determine the grading of dysplasia by clinical morphologic findings. Recently, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)...
متن کاملPreoperative Acute Inflammatory Markers as Predictors for Postoperative Complications in Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty.
BACKGROUND C-reactive protein (CRP) has been suggested as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular pathology in the nonsurgical setting. While postoperative CRP and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) have an established role in aiding the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections, some authors suggest a link between preoperative CRP and postoperative complications in patients undergoi...
