To determine the reliability of single- and double-zone corneal fluorescent staining compared with five-zone analysis for the prediction of dry eye disease. Prospective study of 510 subjects with dry eye disease characterized using corneal fluorescein staining, Schirmer scores, and tear

The ability to predict and interpret membrane permeation coefficients is of critical importance, particularly because passive transport is crucial for the effective delivery of many pharmaceutical agents to intracellular targets. We present a method for the quantitative measurement of the

Since proposed by Piekarski and Munro in 1977, load-induced fluid flow through the bone lacunar-canalicular system (LCS) has been accepted as critical for bone metabolism, mechanotransduction, and adaptation. However, direct unequivocal observation and quantification of load-induced fluid and solute convection
To study the association between the fluorescence levels on fluorescein angiography images and the characteristics on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD OCT) images in diabetic macular edema (DME). Retrospective, observational, cross-sectional study. One hundred sixty-seven consecutive eyes of 116 patients
American journal of physiology. Cell physiology, 305(5), C558-C567 (2013-06-28)
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) physiologically isolates the brain from the blood and, thus, plays a vital role in brain homeostasis. Ion transporters play a critical role in this process by effectively regulating access of chemicals to the brain. Organic anion-transporting
