Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that affected 1% of all population in United State. Classic manifestations of disease consist of early childhood diarrhea, malabsorption, steatorrhea and growth retardation but disease can affects adult at any age. In adult...

Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia Presenting as High Output Cardiac Failure during Pregnancy.

Cardiology research and practice

Goussous T, Haynes A, Najarian K, Daccarett M, David S.
PMID: 19946637
Cardiol Res Pract. 2009;2009:437237. doi: 10.4061/2009/437237. Epub 2009 Sep 07.

High-output cardiac failure secondary to hepatic involvement is a rare complication of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). Here we report a 43-year-old woman who presented at 29 weeks gestation of her second pregnancy with complications of right-sided heart failure and...

Which neurotransmitters modulate corneal sensitivity?.

Clinical & experimental optometry

O'Leary DJ, Nazarian J, Millodot M.
PMID: 23714129
Clin Exp Optom. 1986 May;69(3):108-11. doi: 10.1111/j.1444-0938.1986.tb06799.x.

Corneal sensitivity was assessed before and after applying atropine (0.5, 0.05, 0.005% w/v), pilocarpine (1.0, 0.1%), eserine (0.1, 0.01%) and potassium chloride (171mM). Atropine (0.5 - 0.005%) significantly depressed corneal sensitivity; parasympathomimetics, taken together, significantly increased sensitivity. Exposure to...
