background: visfatin is an adipocytokine secreted by visceral adipose tissue. it has been shown that adipocytokines may contribute to the induction of carcinogens and progression of tumors. previously, we found a significant increase in the visfatin serum level in colorectal cancer patients. herein, we investigated if this cytokine increases in patients with colorectal adenoma as a precursor of...

Purpose: The established methods for observing the morghnl-og;i nF the teer film a=~ based on ;nierfrrenc~ techniques. Since interference patterns are visible only in e pathologically thickened tear film, these techniques are not useful for the physiological tear film morphology. Methods: A ne;.approach is Brewster Angle Microscopy n-which allows the studv of ultra-thin films. In ophthalmology ...

introduction: the co-existence of pituitary adenoma and meningioma is extremely rare. it is even rarer in patients with no previous known risk factors for either tumour. here, we present a case of synchronous non-functioning pituitary adenoma with suprasellar and olfactory groove meningiomas in a patient without previous irradiation. methods: the tumours were diagnosed on mri in the 65-year-old...

The article analyzes the effectiveness of an integrated approach to treatment meibomian gland dysfunction, preparation eyelids using copyright mechanical eye massager evacuate secretion glands. As a result, we get improvement in condition and ocular surface due restoration lipid layer tear film, increase protective properties film number normally functioning

A 16-year-old girl presented with contact lens intolerance. She was found to have a marked deficiency of meibomian glands in the upper lids and almost total absence in the lower lids. Evidence of tear film instability was found and attributed to deficient lid oil production. A daily wear soft contact lens was later fitted and tolerated.
