Tear osmolarity as a biomarker for dry eye disease severity.
PURPOSE To study the association between tear osmolarity and dry eye severity grade, based on a modified Dry Eye Workshop (DEWS) scale, and between osmolarity and the signs and symptoms that determine dry eye disease severity. METHODS Nineteen patients with dry eye disease were asked to complete an evaluation of dry eye signs and symptoms composed of the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) qu...

متن کاملTransthyretin as a novel candidate biomarker for preeclampsia
Preeclampsia (PE) is considered to be a potentially fatal complication during pregnancy. However, no effective laboratory assessment has been developed to enable early diagnosis and monitoring of PE. The present study aimed to identify differentially expressed transthyretin (TTR) during severe PE and evaluate TTR as a possible biomarker of this disease. TTR levels were determined in the differe...
متن کاملGenus Boswellia as a new candidate for neurodegenerative disorders
Neurodegenerative diseases, characterized by progressive loss of neurons, share common mechanisms such as apoptotic cell death, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and oxidative stress. Genus Boswellia is a genus in the Burseraceae family. It comprises several species traditionally used for treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases, cerebral edema, chronic pain syndrome, gastrointestinal d...
متن کاملBiomarker Identification of Tear Fluid
While some potential biomarkers for ocular diseases have been reported, it is difficult to select a single biomarker that is most important in each ocular disease. After reviewing multiple biomarker studies conducted on small sample subgroups, we concluded that newer analysis techniques may result in different and more specific findings. While progress has been made in developing various omics ...
