Frailty and the Immune System

Jun 2017 DOI 10.14302/issn.2474-7785.jarh-17-1578
Daisy WilsonCorresponding author

Frailty describes a medical syndrome that confers increased vulnerability to disproportionate changes in health status following minor stressors. With loss of homeostatic reserve in multiple physiological systems, frailty conveys an increased risk of adverse health outcomes. Despite the lack of a cl…

Transiently Raised IOP Equivalent to That Experienced During Ocular Surgery Causes Moderate Inflammation but does not Affect Retinal Function or Result in Retinal Ganglion Cell Loss in An Animal Model

May 2017 DOI 10.14302/issn.2470-0436.jos-17-1453
Jie ZhangCorresponding author

Purpose: High intraocular pressure (IOP) is known to result in retinal ganglion cell (RGC) loss, both with chronically raised intraocular pressure (such as with glaucoma) and with acute raises in pressure (due to injury or acute angle closure). Because IOP is often raised during ocular surgery, the…
