A three-dimensional optometer (TDO), which can measure simultaneously three major ocular functions in a working environment, was used to measure the visual responses of human subjects viewing: (1) actual artworks and (2) corrugation presented by moving random dots on a cathode ray tube (CRT). Measurements were performed in natural viewing conditions on two emmetropic females. Both subjects demonstrated distinct accommodative responses for the stimuli presented at a fixed distance. The results indicate that the accommodation generally shifts in accord with changes of perceived distance. The usefulness of the TDO was demonstrated in these experiments.

Isothermal amplification-based nucleic acid detection technologies have become rapid and efficient tools for molecular diagnostics. Sequence-specific monitoring methods are crucial for isothermal amplification, as they help identify the occurrence of extended primer dimers, which can lead to false positive results. Fluorescent aptamers are promising tools for real-time monitoring of isothermal amplification but are inherently limited by thermostability.

Membrane contact sites (MCS) are specialized compartments found in all eukaryotic cells that are formed between membranes of different organelles that are in close proximity. MCS have important functions as they are sites of efficient transfer of molecules between neighboring organelles. Two recent articles have used the splitFAST system to mark and follow the dynamics of membrane contact sites and used the method to highlight the importance of MCS between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and lipid droplets in metabolic adaptation and MCS between the ER and mitochondria in Ca signal propagation.

In this paper, a method of ultrasound-assisted low-pressure closed acid digestion followed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) analysis was proposed for trace element quantification in rock samples. By using 1.5 mL of a binary acid mixture of HNO-HF with a ratio of 2:1, rock powder samples of 50 mg were completely decomposed in 12 h at 140 °C after 4 h of ultrasonic treatment with or without pressure relief procedure.

Goldfish (), subjected to millennia of artificial selection and breeding, have diversified into numerous ornamental varieties, such as the celestial-eye (CE) goldfish, noted for its unique dorsal eye rotation. Previous studies have primarily focused on anatomical modifications in CE goldfish eyes, yet the molecular underpinnings of their distinctive eye orientation remain poorly understood. This study employed high-throughput transcriptome and proteome sequencing on 110-day-old full-sibling CE goldfish, which displayed either anterior or upward eye rotations.

The rising prevalence of myopia is a significant global health concern. Atropine eye drops are commonly used to slow myopia progression in children, but their long-term use raises concern about intraocular pressure (IOP). This study uses SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) to improve the interpretability of machine learning (ML) model predicting end IOP, offering clinicians explainable insights for personalized patient management.
