Spiral computed tomography is a gold standard in diagnostics of intraorbital pathological changes. Modern software provides great opportunities at viewing and analyzing DICOM files. Earlier, the authors introduced a method of computed exophthalmometry for precise measurement of globes' position even in the cases of lateral orbital rim fracture. However, eye proptosis is known to be depending on the eye length (ocular component), retrobulbar volume (orbital component), as well as anatomy of neurocranium and brain (cerebral component). Nevertheless, conventional Hertel exophthalmometry and other proposed methods do not specify the component, involved in the pathogenesis of enophthalmos or exophthalmos, that is why additional examinations are required. In this article, the authors propose a novel approach, which can complement and/or substitute instrumental methods used for differential diagnostics of enophthalmos or exophthalmos.

The impact of relative word-length on effects of non-adjacent word transpositions.

A recent study (Wen et al., Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 50: 934-941, 2024) found no influence of relative word-length on transposed-word effects. However, following the tradition of prior research on effects of transposed words during sentence reading, the transposed words in that study were adjacent words (words at positions 2 and 3 or 3 and 4 in five-word sequences).

Bruch´s membrane (BM) is firmly connected posteriorly to the optic nerve head through the peripapillary choroidal border tissue, and anteriorly through the longitudinal ciliary muscle to the scleral spur. We assessed, whether a difference in the contractile state of the ciliary muscle influences the position of the posterior BM by lifting the posterior BM pole, i.e.

Myelin loss induces neural dysfunction and contributes to the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases, injury conditions, and aging. Because remyelination is often incomplete, better understanding endogenous remyelination and developing remyelination therapies that restore neural function are clinical imperatives. Here, we use in vivo two-photon microscopy and electrophysiology to study the dynamics of endogenous and therapeutic-induced cortical remyelination and functional recovery after cuprizone-mediated demyelination in mice.

Background: The paramedian forehead flap (PMFF) has been well established for use in reconstruction limited to a single nasal outer layer defect and has recently gained recognition as an acceptable alternative to traditional methods of lower eyelid reconstruction. The use of a single, pedicled PMFF for the reconstruction of more than one defect has yet to be described.
Methods: A 59-year-old male patient was originally diagnosed with large squamous cell carcinoma resulting in radical resection and ipsilateral neck dissection.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of preoperative visual aids on anxiety and pain management in patients with low educational backgrounds undergoing glaucoma filtering surgery.
Methods: A randomized, single-blinded, single-center clinical trial was conducted at a tertiary eye hospital in Shantou, China. Patients scheduled for glaucoma filtering surgery were randomly assigned to either a conventional oral education group or a visual aids group.
