Six months exposure to a real life mixture of 13 chemicals' below individual NOAELs induced non monotonic sex-dependent biochemical and redox status changes in rats.

This study assessed the potential adverse health effects of long-term low-dose exposure to chemical mixtures simulating complex real-life human exposures. Four groups of Sprague Dawley rats were administered mixtures containing carbaryl, dimethoate, glyphosate, methomyl, methyl parathion, triadimefon, aspartame, sodium benzoate, calcium disodium ethylene diamine tetra-acetate, ethylparaben, butylparaben, bisphenol A, and acacia gum at doses of 0, 0.25, 1 or 5 times the respective Toxicological Reference Values (TRV): acceptable daily intake (ADI) or tolerable daily intake (TDI) in a 24 weeks toxicity study.

RETINAL ANGIOMATOUS PROLIFERATION CASE REPORT.

The diagnosis of RAP is similar with the diagnosis of the AMD, but PED, exudate and superficial hemorrhages are more common in RAP. A 75-year-old male presented himself at the Ophthalmology Department of the Emergency County Hospital in Craiova in January 2015, with a 4 months history of vision loss. In his right eye the visual acuity was 4/50 eye non-optical correctable and 5/5 with optical correction in the left eye.

[Histological particularities of sclerocorneal limbus--implications in ocular pathology].

The study tried to compare the sclerocorneal limbus in human eyes and animal eyes, using the same histological technique (preserving in paraphine and stained with hematoxylin-eosine, trichromic Goldner-Szekelly and orceine method). The sclerocorneal limbus represents the passage zone between cornea and sclera, and its importance for medical practice, consists on the implications of this area in the ocular physiology. We have demonstrated in this study that the two structures are not interrupted briefly; the corneal epithelium at the limbus send in the deeper structure a ramification which represents a modality of stronger anchorage of subjacent conjunctiva.

[Retinal vascular lesions in diabetic retinopathy].

The paper presents the vascular morphopathological lesions in diabetic retinopathy. We have initiated a comparative study between normal eye and ocular globes preserved from patients with diabetic retinopathy in different stages of evolution that were fixed and stained by classic histological techniques. We have focus on the histopathological examinations on arterial and venous morphology, in different retinal areas (central and peripheral).
