Does experimentally-induced amblyopia cause hyperopia in monkeys?
We assessed refractive errors in 19 monkeys (Macaca nemestrina) raised with experimentally produced strabismus or unilateral defocus. These procedures resulted in hyperopic anisometropia in 10 monkeys. All 10 of the hyperopic animals were amblyopic; the amblyopic eye was always the more hyperopic eye. The degree of anisometropia was correlated with the degree of amblyopia. Hyperopic anisometrop...
متن کاملAstigmatism associated with experimentally induced myopia or hyperopia in chickens.
PURPOSE Astigmatism is a very common refractive error in humans, but its etiology is poorly understood. The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether alterations in visual experience would result in astigmatism in chicks. METHODS Longitudinal and cross-sectional data were obtained from chicks that were raised undergoing four different visual manipulations known to alter axial eye...
متن کاملExperimentally-Induced Metabolic Acidosis Does not Alter Aortic Fatty Streak Formation in High-Cholesterol Fed Rabbits
Objective(s)Cardiovascular disease causes a major clinical problem in patients with end stage renal disease. Since metabolic acidosis is very common in patients with end stage renal disease, we aimed to investigate the effect of experimentally-induced metabolic acidosis on serum lipid profile and aortic fatty streak (FS) formation in normal and high-cholesterol fed rabbits.Materials and Methods...
متن کاملCompensation for experimentally induced hyperopic anisometropia in adolescent monkeys.
PURPOSE Early in life, the optical demand associated with the eye's effective refractive state regulates emmetropization in many species, including primates. However, the potential role of optical demand and/or defocus in the genesis of common refractive errors, like myopia, that normally develop much later in life is not known. The purpose of this study was to determine whether chronic optical...
متن کاملReactions of Monkeys to Experimentally Induced Influenza Virus a Infection
1. Macaca mulatta monkeys on a normal diet have proved resistant to intranasal but not to intratracheal inoculation of influenza virus. 2. Neutralizing antibodies appeared 8 to 10 days after inoculation with either living or heat-inactivated virus. The antibodies were noted to be still present as long as 9 months after infection with living virus. 3. A specific granulopenic leucopenia character...
