Femtosecond Laser-Assisted LASIK in Children With Hyperopia and Anisometropic Amblyopia: 7 Years of Follow-up.

Purpose: To analyze clinical and functional results of femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FSLASIK) in children with hyperopia and unilateral anisome-tropic amblyopia.

Methods: The study included 24 patients (24 eyes) aged 5 to 15 years. Before the surgery, the mean manifest refractive spherical equivalent (MRSE) of amblyopic eyes was +3.

[Effect of vibrostimulation on support zones of rat's feet, and support loading on titin N2A-isoform and T2-fragment in m. soleus under the conditions of simulated microgravity].

Effects of daily 3-hr vibrostimulation of foot support zone and 3 hrs. of usual locomotion on titin N2A-isoform and proteolytic T2-fragment were studied in m. soleus of rats during 7-d suspension.

[Novel diagnostic kit on the basis of stained polymeric carriers for epidemiologic surveillance in natural foci of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever].

Aim: To study diagnostic value of developed antigenic polymeric diagnostic kit for epidemiologic surveillance in natural foci of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) in South federal district.

Materials And Methods: Novel antigenic diagnostic kit on the basis of polymeric microspheres for reaction of volume agglomeration was developed. The kit is designed for detection of virus-specific antibodies in human serum and in serum of agricultural animals.

[Potential of optical coherence tomography for diagnosing mucositis in cancer of the nasal cavity and throat in the course of radio- and chemoradiotherapy].

The monitoring data on mucosa of the nasal cavity and throat using optical coherence tomography imaging in 14 cases during radiochemotherapy are presented. Typical alterations such as reduction in contrast distinctions between tissue layers to an extent that it blurs down completely at the peak of radiation-related response are discussed. Due to use of the technique valuable information on individual response was obtained.
