13. Use of intravitreal triamcinolone and laser photocoagulation for the treatment of diffuse diabetic macular edema / Tratamento do edema macular difuso do diabético com triancinolona intravítrea e fotocoagulação com laser de argônio
INTRODUCTION: The diffuse macular edema is an important cause of visual impairment in diabetic subjects. Laser photocoagulation is the main treatment for this disorder, however, it is not effective in a large number of patients. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of intravitreal use of triamcinolone acetonide combined with laser photocoagulation for th

14. Avaliação do comportamento visuomotor de lactentes nascidos pré-termo durante o primeiro trimestre de vida: medida para proteção da saúde ocular.
The primary function of vision is related to achievements in infant development. The visual behavior is known to be acquired once visual stimuli are processed by retinal cells and then transmitted to the cerebral cortex by neurovisual pathways. This neuromaturational process progresses as visual stimuli are received by the neurons and synapses are moved from

15. Psiconeurociencia y arquetipos: construyendo un diálogo entre Psicología Analítica y neurociencia
The sustained development of neurosciences in the study of the brain and human conduct, together with the building of epistemological bridges between brain and human soul among psicosciences, has began to create an integration and complementation of knowledge coming from different scientific disciplines, integration which is looking forward to create a mind-

16. Método de avaliação visual aplicado ao recém - nascido / Evaluation method of the newborns vision
This is a quantitative study, which took place in a public maternity of Fortaleza - CE during the months of March and May of 2004. The aim was to describe the implementation of a visual evaluation during the intern of 114 premature newborns (PN) whose gestation age until birth was under 37 weeks. The babies mothers gave their permission to be subject of the

17. Perdas de função visual na distrofia muscular de Duchenne: visão de cores e visão de contrastes de luminância temporal e espacial / Visual function losses in Duchenne musculas dystrophy: color vision and spatial and temporal luminance contrast vision
A Distrofia Muscular de Duchenne (DMD) é uma doença recessiva ligada ao cromossomo X, causada por deleção ou mutação na proteína distrofina, e afeta 1 para cada 3.500 nascidos vivos do sexo masculino. O gene da distrofina é o maior gene do genoma humano e, além das proteínas de tamanho total, ao menos outras 5 isoformas foram identificadas até o m

18. Bilateral symmetry of vision disorders in typical retinitis pigmentosa.
Bilateral symmetry of disorders of vision is examined in 60 typical patients with retinitis pigmentosa. We observed a very high degree of interocular congruence in the patterns of both kinetic visual field defects and threshold profiles and in abnormalities of foveal colour discrimination and visual acuity. Abnormalities of foveal colour vision are highly

20. Subtle disturbances of vision after optic neuritis elicited by studying contrast sensitivity.
Eight patients with a subjective disorder of vision yet normal Snellen acuities after optic neuritis were shown to have an abnormal contrast sensitivity function in their affected eye. It appears that certain disorders of vision are associated with an abnormality of the contrast sensitivity function in spite of near normal visual acuity. Such an abnormality

21. Visual fatigue phenomenon and prescribing tinted lenses in patients with optic neuritis.
The fatigue phenomenon of grating visual acuity was examined in 36 patients with optic nerve disorders by means of a laser interferometric acuity device. The phenomenon was found in 6 of 36 cases even under a luminance corresponding to the Japanese standards of office illumination. This fact indicated that the patients suffered visual fatigue in their everyd

22. Musculoskeletal disorders and disability in persons aged 85 and over: a community survey.
OBJECTIVES--To study the prevalences of musculoskeletal disorders and disability in the elderly, and the relationship between them. METHODS--A community sample of 73 females and 32 males aged 85 and over underwent a standardised examination at home. Musculoskeletal disorders were classified according to published clinical criteria. The relative effects on di

23. Preschool vision screening: outcome of children referred to the hospital eye service.
AIMS: To assess the outcome of children referred to the hospital eye service (HES) from an orthoptist based preschool vision screening programme. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted of children referred from screening during a 2 year period. Children were screened by community orthoptists at 3 1/2 years of age. The main outcome measures were (1) HES

24. Radiation retinopathy.
Radiation therapy is effective against many cancerous and noncancerous disease processes. As with other therapeutics, side effects must be anticipated, recognized, and managed appropriately. Radiation retinopathy is a vision-threatening complication of ocular, orbital, periorbital, facial, nasopharyngeal, and cranial irradiation. Factors that appear importan
