The aim of this work was to analyze the influence of fibers on the mechanical behavior of fiber-reinforced elastomers under cyclic loading. Thus, the focus was on the characterization of structure-property interactions, in particular the dynamic mechanical and viscoelastic behavior. Endless twill-woven glass fibers were chosen as the reinforcement, along with silicone as the matrix material.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAims: To determine the prevalence of various personality disorders in patients with open globe injuries caused by violent eye trauma.
Materials And Methods: One-hundred patients were divided equally to case and control groups. The case group was selected from admitted patients with open globe injury following a violent act.
Background: Closantel is a halogenated salicylanilide with a potent anti parasitic activity. It is widely used in management of parasitic infestation in animals, but is contraindicated in humans.
Case Presentation: A 34-year-old man with depression was referred to our center with progressive loss of vision in both eyes 10 days after unintentional ingestion of three 500 mg tablets of Closantel.
Aim: To evaluate demographic variables and visual outcomes, among patients with ocular injuries involving the posterior segment, managed with pars plana vitrectomy.
Methods: The records of patients were studied retrospectively from March to September 2010, to determine the age, gender, place of occurrence of trauma, visual acuity, anatomical site, nature of injury, wound length, the presence of an afferent pupillary defect, and the timing of vitrectomy. The Ocular Trauma Score was measured.
Purpose: Occupational eye injuries are among the major causes of ocular trauma and can cause severe visual impairment, with even minor injuries incurring considerable financial costs due to work absenteeism. This study was designed to evaluate the epidemiology of eye trauma and the role of occupational injuries at Farabi Eye Hospital, which is the largest eye hospital in Iran.
Methods: In this prospective, cross-sectional study, 822 eyes from 768 trauma patients presenting to Farabi Eye Hospital were enrolled in the study.
Purpose: To report the incidence, severity and risk factors of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in premature infants with late ROP examination in Farabi Eye Hospital.
Methods: In a retrospective study from January 2001 to July 2007, hospital records of premature infants who were examined later than 9 weeks after birth were reviewed to determine the incidence, severity and possible risk factors of ROP including gender, singleton or multiple gestations, gestational age (GA), birth weight (BW), oxygen therapy,blood transfusion, phototherapy, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), mechanical ventilation,intraventricular hemorrhage and sepsis as well as age at initial examination.
Results: Out of a total of 797 infants referred for ROP screening during the study period,216 (27.
Purpose: To compare the frequency and severity of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) among singleton and multiple-birth neonates referred to Farabi Eye Hospital, Tehran- Iran.
Methods: In this retrospective study, records of 99 consecutive neonates from multiplegestation pregnancies including 68 twins, 26 triplets and 5 quadruplets who were screened for ROP from 2002 to 2004 were reviewed. The frequency, severity and risk factors for ROP were determined and compared to a group of singletons who were matched in terms of gender, birth weight (BW), gestational age (GA), oxygen therapy, respiratory distress syndrome, blood transfusion, sepsis and phototherapy.
Purpose: To report the visual acuity, enucleation rates, and initial mortality after transvitreal endoresection of posterior uveal melanoma.
Methods: Twenty consecutive patients with medium-sized posterior choroidal melanomas were treated. Vitrectomy was performed, followed by posterior hyaloid dissection, retinotomy, melanoma removal with a vitrectomy probe, retinal reattachment with perfluorocarbon liquid, and silicone oil or gas exchange.
Purpose: To describe the clinical spectrum and severity of eye injuries sustained during the Persian Wednesday Eve Festival "Charshanbe-Soori" and to identify the fireworks devices involved.
Methods: Prospectively, consecutive patients treated for fireworks-related eye injuries in the emergency room at Farabi Eye Hospital, Tehran, over 3 days around the occasion in 2000, 2001, and 2002 were studied.
Results: Four hundred thirty-seven cases of eye injuries with an age range of 2-74 (median 17; SD 11.
Background: We describe corneal endothelial cell density and morphology in normal Iranian eyes and compare endothelial cell characteristics in the Iranian population with data available in the literature for American and Indian populations.
Methods: Specular microscopy was performed in 525 eyes of normal Iranian people aged 20 to 85 years old. The studied parameters including mean endothelial cell density (MCD), mean cell area (MCA) and coefficient of variation (CV) in cell area were analyzed in all of the 525 eyes.
