OCCUPATIONAL LIFTING TASKS AND RETINAL DETACHMENT IN NON-MYOPICS AND MYOPICS: EXTENDED ANALYSIS OF A CASE-CONTROL STUDY

Occupational Lifting Tasks and Retinal Detachment in Non-Myopics and Myopics: Extended Analysis of a Case-control Study

Objectives: Lifting heavy weights involves the Valsalva manoeuvre, which leads to intraocular pressure spikes.We used data from a case-control study to further investigate the hypothesis that occupational lifting is a risk factor for retinal detachment.Methods: The study population included 48 cases (patients operated for letter opener retinal deta

Plant extract mediated biosynthesis of Al2O3 nanoparticles- a review on plant parts involved, characterization and applications

Metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) produced by green chemistry approaches have received notable attention because of their significant physic-chemical properties and their remarkable uses in the area of nanotechnology.Currently, the sustainable BOWL improvement of synthesizing NPs by distinctive parts of plant extract has become a major focus of scien

Regulation of synaptic nlg-1/neuroligin abundance by the skn-1/Nrf stress response pathway protects against oxidative stress.

The Nrf family of transcription factors mediates adaptive responses to stress and longevity, but the identities of the crucial Nrf targets, and the tissues in which they function in multicellular organisms to promote survival, are not known.Here, we use whole transcriptome RNA sequencing to identify 810 genes whose expression is controlled by the O
