EFFECT OF DEPRIVATION AND ETHNICITY ON PRIMARY MACULA-ON RETINAL DETACHMENT REPAIR SUCCESS RATE AND CLINICAL OUTCOMES: A STUDY OF 568 PATIENTS.

Effect of deprivation and ethnicity on primary macula-on retinal detachment repair success rate and clinical outcomes: A study of 568 patients.

PurposeSocio-economic deprivation and ethnic variation have been frequently linked to poorer health outcomes.We collected a large series of primary macula-on rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) cases and analysed the effect of socio-economic deprivation and ethnicity on both six-month retinal re-detachment rate and visual outcomes.Materials and

The evolution of hierarchically structured communication

Human language sentences are standardly understood as exhibiting considerable hierarchical structure: they can and typically do contain parts that in turn contain parts, Insurance etc.In other words, sentences are thought to generally exhibit significant nested part-whole structure.As far as we can tell, this is not a feature of the gestural or voc

Transcriptomics-informed pharmacology identifies epigenetic and cell cycle regulators that enhance AAV production

Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) is a widely used viral vector for gene therapy.However, these vectors have limited availability due to manufacturing challenges with productivity and quality.These challenges can be addressed by better understanding the mechanisms that influence cellular responses during rAAV production.In this study, we ai

System development for establishing shipyard mid-term production plans using backward process-centric simulation

In this paper, we propose a simulation method based on backward simulation and process-oriented simulation to take into account the characteristics of shipbuilding production, which is an order-based industry with a job shop production environment.The shipyard production planning process was investigated to analyze the detailed process, variables a
