Intraocular bevacizumab levels 24 hours after intravitreal injection in a normal eye.

Background: To determine intraocular levels of bevacizumab in a normal eye 24 hours after the injection of bevacizumab into the vitreous cavity.

Methods: Fluid and tissue samples were analyzed for unbound bevacizumab levels using microsphere immunoassays.

Results: After a loading dose of 2.

Does extended wear of a tight necktie cause raised intraocular pressure?

Purpose: To investigate the effect that extended wear of a tight necktie has on the intraocular pressure (IOP), measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry in a normal and aged-matched glaucoma group.

Methods: One eye of 18 normal and 19 primary open-angle glaucoma patients was included in this prospective study. The intraocular pressure of each patient's randomly selected eye was measured with the patient dressed in an open shirt collar, again 3 minutes after their collar was fastened and necktie tightened, again after a further 12 minutes, and finally 3 minutes after the necktie was loosened and collar unfastened.

Efficacy of moxidectin 2 per cent gel against naturally acquired strongyle infections in horses, with particular reference to larval cyathostomes.

The efficacy of moxidectin 2 per cent equine gel against naturally acquired strongyle infections was assessed in 18 ponies which had grazed on contaminated pasture before being housed for eight weeks. Twenty-four hours before the treatment, two randomly selected ponies were euthanased and their worm burdens were determined. Eight of the remaining 16 ponies were treated with moxidectin 2 per cent gel while the other eight were given a placebo gel.

The answer lies in managing one's allocated time more effectively.
