BACKGROUND The nosological assignment of congenital ocular motor apraxia type Cogan (COMA) is still controversial. While regarded as a distinct entity by some authorities including the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man catalog of genetic disorders, others consider COMA merely a clinical symptom. METHODS We performed a retrospective multicenter data collection study with re-evaluation of cli...

Abstract Date Presented 04/01/2022 We present results of a latent variable path analysis indicating that postconcussive symptoms may heighten risk for suicidal thoughts among Veterans by limiting successful participation. discuss implications with respect to OT’s role in suicide prevention efforts.

THE investigation described in this paper was designed to throw light on one aspect of the vascular relationships in the human posterior retina; such investigations contribute to the more ambitious attempts to solve the difficult and obscure problem presented by the vascular changes in diabetic retinopathy. New and fruitful ideas on retinal structure, function, and pathology have been put forwa...

The overall goal of the research in my laboratory is to gain better understanding of the molecular biology of the anterior segment and, in particular, to identify genes that regulate the development and function of this tissue. We have concentrated on discovering and characterizing the genes that, when mutated, cause anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD). ASD encompasses a spectrum of inherited aut...
