Correction to: Causes, background, and characteristics of binocular diplopia in the elderly.

In the original publication, the second paragraph under the heading "Results" has been mistakenly published as.

Causes, background, and characteristics of binocular diplopia in the elderly.

Purpose: We evaluated the background and characteristics of elderly patients with binocular diplopia including diseases caused by abnormalities in orbital pulleys.

Study Design: Retrospective.

Methods: The participants were 236 patients aged 60 years or older who visited Kitasato University Hospital complaining of binocular diplopia.

Diagnostic Ability and Repeatability of a New Supra-Threshold Glaucoma Screening Program in Standard Automated Perimetry.

Purpose: We assess the diagnostic ability and repeatability of a new suprathreshold glaucoma screening test (GST) comprising 28 test points and a 1-of-3 sampling strategy at 95% of the normal limit for standard automated perimetry (SAP) in early to advanced glaucoma.

Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study included 96 eyes of patients with early, moderate, or advanced glaucoma and 37 eyes of normal controls. Participants were evaluated by the G-Dynamic threshold test once and the GST twice, in random order, using the Octopus 600 perimeter.

A simple and sensitive method for the determination of fibric acids in the liver by liquid chromatography.

Fibrates are used in biochemical and pharmacological studies as bioactive tools. Nevertheless, most studies have lacked information concerning the concentrations of fibric acids working inside tissues because a simple and sensitive method is not available for their quantitation. This study aimed to develop a simple and sensitive bioanalytical method for the quantitation of clofibric, bezafibric and fenofibric acids in samples of very small portions of tissues.

Fibrates reduce triacylglycerol content by upregulating adipose triglyceride lipase in the liver of rats.

Hepatic triacylglycerol (TAG) homeostasis is maintained by carefully regulated balance between its synthesis and disposal. Impairment in this balance causes steatosis. The aims of this study were i) to uncover whether fibrates control TAG concentration through the action of adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) and ii) to compare the potency of the effects on ATGL expression and TAG concentration among fenofibrate, bezafibrate, and clofibric acid in the liver of rats.
