The role of eye size in its pressure and motility

چکیده

A theoretical model demonstrates the influence of the globe's size on the effects of its intraocular pressure (IOP) and on its motility. Large globes seem more susceptible to the damaging consequences of elevated IOP, and move with greater difficulty than small ones. Routine measurement of axial length (AxL) may accordingly enhance precision in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma and strabismus.

Polymerization of propylene in a minireactor: Effect of polymerization conditions on particle morphology

Gas phase polymerization of propylene was carried out in a semi-batch minireactor using a commercially supported Ziegler–Natta (ZN) catalyst. The influence of variables including monomer partial pressure, external electron donor, reaction temperature and time on the particle morphology and size distribution was investigated. Generally, more uniform fragmentation and particle densities were obta...

P-38: Effect of Systolic and DiastolicBlood Pressure on Sperm Parameters inMen Attending to Infertility Clinic

Background: It is shown that hypertension may affect androgens. The role of blood pressure on sperm parameters is matter of debate. The main goal was to evaluate the probable association between systolic and diastolic blood pressure and sperm parameters. Materials and Methods: Semen Sample of men (aged: 27- 45 years old) from 40 infertile cases who attended at Yazd research and clinical center ...

P-30: The Effect of The T26248G Polymorphism on Putative MethyltransferaseNsun7 Protein Function and Its Role in Male Infertility

Background: Male infertility has many causes, including genetic infertility. The NOP2/Sun domain family, member7 (Nsun7) gene, which encodes putative methyltransferase Nsun7, has a role in sperm motility. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of the T26248G polymorphism on Nsun7 protein function and its role in male infertility. Materials and Methods: Semen samples were col...

Cryopreservation of Mesopotamian catfish (Silurus triostegus H., 1843) spermatozoa: Effects of diluents and osmotic pressure on spermatozoa DNA damage, rate and duration of motility

This study was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of three different conditions of osmotic pressure (325, 365 and 385 mOsm kg-1) in combination with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and NaCl or glucose on spermatozoa DNA damage, rate and duration of motility. Sperm was collected from eight healthy mature Mesopotamian catfish, evaluated microscopically and pooled at 25 °C. The pooled sperm samples...

Dose Assessment of Eye and Its Components in Proton Therapy by Monte Carlo Method

Introduction Proton therapy is used to treat malignant tumors such as melanoma inside the eye. Proton particles are adjusted according to various parameters such as tumor size and position and patient’s distance from the proton source. The purpose of this study was to assess absorbed doses in eyes and various tumors found in the area of sclera and choroid and the adjacent tissues in radiotherap...
