Prophylactic juxtapapillary laser photocoagulation in pediatric morning glory syndrome.

Aim: To determine the anatomic and visual outcomes of prophylactic juxtapapillary laser photocoagulation treatment alone in the prevention of retinal detachment (RD) in a cohort of pediatric patients diagnosed with morning glory syndrome (MGS).

Methods: A total of 24 eyes of 22 consecutive patients aged 0-15y diagnosed with MGS treated with prophylactic juxtapapillary laser photocoagulation alone were reviewed. Data including demographics, ocular examination, anatomic and visual outcomes, following treatment and complications were collected.

Stability analysis and Hopf bifurcation of a fractional order mathematical model with time delay for nutrient-phytoplankton-zooplankton.

In recent years, some researchers paid their attention to the interaction between toxic phytoplankton and zooplankton. Their studies showed that the mechanism of food selection in zooplankton is still immature and when different algae of the same species (toxic and nontoxic) coexist, some zooplankton may not be able to distinguish between toxic and nontoxic algae, and even show a slight preference for toxic strains. Thus, in this article, a fractional order mathematical model with time delay is constructed to describe the interaction of nutrient-phytoplankton-toxic phytoplankton-zooplankton.
