SD-OCT peripapillary nerve fibre layer and ganglion cell complex parameters in glaucoma: principal component analysis.
Br J Ophthalmol
April 2021
Ophthalmology, Hospital Universitario de Canarias, Universidad de la Laguna, Tenerife, Spain.
Background/aims: To identify objective glaucoma-related structural features based on peripapillary (p) and macular (m) spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) parameters and assess their discriminative ability between healthy and glaucoma patients.
Methods: Two hundred and sixty eyes (91 controls and 169 glaucoma) were included in this prospective study. After a complete examination, all participants underwent the posterior pole and the peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (pRNFL) protocols of the Spectralis SD-OCT.
Impact of surgical maxillomandibular advancement upon pharyngeal airway volume and the apnoea-hypopnoea index in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea: systematic review and meta-analysis.
BMJ Open Respir Res
April 2020
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Universitat Internacional de Catalunya Facultat de Medicina i Ciencies de la Salut, Sant Cugat del Valles, Spain.
Background: A systematic review was carried out on the effect of surgical maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) on pharyngeal airway (PA) dimensions and the apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), with the aim of determining whether increased PA in the context of MMA is the main factor conditioning the subsequent decrease in AHI.
Methods: A search was made of the PubMed, Embase, Google Scholar and Cochrane databases. A total of 496 studies were identified.
