Current management of glaucoma and the need for complete therapyStuart J McKinnon
Departments of Ophthalmology and Neurobiology, Duke University Medical Center, Box 3802, Erwin Rd, Durham, NC 27710, USA
Am J Manag Care 14:S20-7. 2008..Complete therapy provides hope for improved outcomes by reducing the significant morbidity and economic consequences that occur as a result of neurodegeneration and disease progression...
Gene and protein expression pilot profiling and biomarkers in an experimental mouse model of hypertensive glaucomaMolly M Walsh
Duke University Medical Center, Erwin Rd, DUEC 3802, Durham, NC 27710, USA
Exp Biol Med (Maywood) 234:918-30. 2009..Hence, this study defines novel IOP-induced molecular processes, biomarkers and sources thereof, and it further validates the extension of the analyses herein reported to other genes modulated by IOP...
Bilateral optic disk edema and blindness as initial presentation of acute lymphocytic leukemiaGeorge L Mayo
Department of Ophthalmology, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 78229-3900, USA
Am J Ophthalmol 134:141-2. 2002..CONCLUSIONS: Acute lymphocytic leukemia can rarely present in adults as visual changes due to leukemic optic nerve infiltration. Radiation treatment should be considered as an urgent treatment modality for this rare condition...
