Stop or Go in the Target Zone
The eye and brain develop coordinately during the period of photoreceptor axon ingrowth in the larval stage. The spatiotemporal pattern of ommatidial differentiation in the eye (posterior earlier than anterior) results in a temporal pattern of photoreceptor axon arrival in the brain. In the eye, new ommatidia initiate differentiation at the anterior (left), while older ommatidia add additional ...
متن کاملFractional Flow Reserve
Traditionally, coronary artery disease was assessed using coronary angiographic guidance. Significant lesions were determined by the coronary angiographer. However, interobserver variability showed a significant limitation of interpretation of coronary angiography. Stent deployment and apposition were also evaluated based on angiographic appearance only. Risk factors for stent thrombosis and in...
متن کاملFractional Flow Reserve—Guided Lesion or Patient Management?
Correspondence To the Editor: In one of the latest issues, Hu et al. carried out a national retrospective cohort study and investigated the clinical outcomes and cost of fractional flow reserve (FFR) guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in daily practice. FFR guided PCI was shown to improve the clinical outcomes with reduced cost, as demonstrated in the literature. We would like to e...
متن کامل“Virtual” (Computed) Fractional Flow Reserve
Ma Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the “gold standard” for assessing the physiological significance of coronary artery disease during invasive coronary angiography. FFR-guided percutaneous coronary intervention improves patient outcomes and reduces stent insertion and cost; yet, due to several practical and operator related factors, it is used in <10% of percutaneous coronary intervention proc...

n engl j med 372;1 nejm.org january 1, 2015 94 difference. The observed loss of FEV1 was neither a time-dependent nor a dose-dependent effect in the withdrawal group, as compared with the maintenance group. A difference of 38 ml between groups became apparent only after the final step of inhaled glucocorticoid withdrawal and did not change to a meaningful extent thereafter. Singanayagam et al. ...
