description: We study elliptic and parabolic boundary value problems in spaces of mixed scales with mixed smoothness on the half space. The aim is to solve boundary value problems with boundary data of negative regularity and to describe the singularities of solutions at the boundary. To this end, we derive mapping properties of Poisson operators in mixed scales with mixed smoothness. We also derive $\mathcal{R}$-sectoriality results for homogeneous boundary data in the case that the smoothness in normal direction is not too large.

description: The background field of the Tadpole galaxy image taken with the Hubble Space Telescope ACS contains 87 clump-clusters that are probably low-inclination versions of the 69 chain galaxies we found in a previous paper. This conclusion follows from the similarity in colors and apparent magnitudes of the brightest clumps in the clump-clusters and chain galaxies, and from the similarity between the distribution of axial ratios for the combined sample and the distribution for normal disk galaxies. These distributions are consistent with chains and clump-clusters being disks viewed at random angles with intrinsic axial ratios of 0.1-0.2 or less. The disks appear to be gas-rich galaxies at z=1 to 2 that are forming an early generation of stars in a small number of very large star complexes.

description: Objectives: Molecular imaging constitutes a promising technique for the early detection of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Macrophages and hypoxia play significant roles in inflamed synovium. In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy of radiopharmaceuticals that target macrophage mannose receptors (99mTc-labeled mannosylated dextran or 99mTc(CO)3-DCM20) and hypoxia (copper(II) diacetyl-di(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) or Cu-ATSM) for the early detection of RA in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice models. Methods: CIA model was developed in DBA/1 mice, and the clinical score for arthritis was visually assessed on a regular basis. Two biodistribution studies were performed in a paired-labeled format using 2-deoxy-2-18F-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) as a reference; 1) 99mTc(CO)3-DCM20 with 18F-FDG and 2) 67Cu-ATSM with 18F-FDG. Results: The accumulation levels of 99mTc(CO)3-DCM20 and 67Cu-ATSM in forepaws, hindpaws, and knee joints of CIA mice were significantly higher than that of control mice. In contrast, 18F-FDG uptake in hindpaws and knee joints showed no significant difference between CIA and control mice. The radioactivity levels of 99mTc(CO)3-DCM20 and 67Cu-ATSM were significantly correlated with the clinical scores for the paws. Conclusions: These results suggest the potential usefulness of 99mTc(CO)3-DCM20 and radiolabeled Cu-ATSM for the imaging and early detection of RA.

description: We study second-order PDEs in four dimensions for which the conformal structure defined by the characteristic variety of the equation is half-flat (self-dual or anti-self-dual) on every solution. We prove that this requirement implies the Monge–Ampère property. Since half-flatness of the conformal structure is equivalent to the existence of a nontrivial dispersionless Lax pair, our result explains the observation that all known scalar second-order integrable dispersionless PDEs in dimensions four and higher are of Monge–Ampère type. Some partial classification results of Monge–Ampère equations in four dimensions with half-flat conformal structure are also obtained.

description: Introduction: Adie´s pupil is a neuro-ophthalmological disorder caused by injury of postganglionic parasympathetic nerve fibers of the eye and is defined as a dilated pupil, which is unresponsive to light and moderately responsive to accommodation. Although the etiology remains unknown, there are few reports of Adie´s pupil associated with migraine. Methods: A 48-year-old woman presented with right pupil dilatation during a migraine attack. The pupillary asymetry persisted after the headache had subsided. Results: Ophthalmological examination and pilocarpine test results were consistent with Adie`s pupil. Work-up including neuroimaging showed no abnormalities. Reexamination 3 months later showed persistent unilateral mydriasis. Conclusions: The chronology of events and the exclusion of other possible etiologies favored the association between Adie´s pupil and migraine. It is possible that severe or prolonged vasospasm can occur during a migraine attack leading to ischemia of parasympathetic fibers resulting in Adie´s pupil. This condition should be distinguished from benign episodic unilateral mydriasis.

The anapole moments in disk-form MS-wave ferrite particle

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The anapole moments describe the parity-violating parity-odd, time-reversal-even couplings between elementary particles and the electromagnetic (EM) field. Surprisingly, the anapole-like moment properties can be found in certain artificially engineered physical systems. In microwaves, ferrite resonators with multi-resonance magnetostatic-wave (MS-wave) oscillations may have sizes two-four orders less than the free-space EM wavelength at the same frequency. MS-wave oscillations in a ferrite sample occupy a special place between the pure electromagnetic and spin-wave (exchange) processes. The energy density of MS-wave oscillations is not the electromagnetic-wave density of energy and not the exchange energy density as well. These microscopic oscillating objects -- the particles -- may interact with the external EM fields by a very specific way, forbidden for the classical description. To describe such interactions, the quantum mechanical analysis should be used. The presence of surface magnetic currents is one of the features of MS oscillations in a normally magnetized ferrite disk resonator. Because of such magnetic currents, MS oscillations in ferrite disk resonators become parity violating. The parity-violating couplings between disk-form ferrite particles and the external EM field should be analyzed based on the notion of an anapole moment.

description: Using Gaussian Process regression to analyze the Martian surface methane Tunable Laser Spectrometer (TLS) data reported by Webster (2018), we find that the TLS data, taken as a whole, are not statistically consistent with seasonal variability. The subset of data derived from an enrichment protocol of TLS, if considered in isolation, are equally consistent with either stochastic processes or periodic variability, but the latter does not favour seasonal variation.

description: Introduction: Primary lacrimal sac lymphoid tumors are a rare entity, the most frequent being the diffuse large B cell lymphoma and the extranodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma). We report a case of primary lacrimal sac lymphoma treated primarily with conformal radiotherapy. Case report: An 86 years-old female presents with a symptomatic mass on the right lacrimal fossa area. Clinical investigation with orbital CT scan, Doppler ultra-sonography, incisional biopsy and systemic investigation lead to the diagnosis of a MALT lymphoma, Ann Harbour stage IE. Primary small dose three dimensional conformal radiotherapy was performed, with complete remission of the local lesion. No signs of recurrence were identified on follow-up. Discussion: Primary MALT lymphoma of the lacrimal sac is a rare entity and its presentation may be misleading. Radiotherapy may be considered as primary treatment in local lesions.

Although several refinements are still needed to make this result interesting for phenomenological applications, our computation shows that a fully-differential description of simple color singlet production processes at a hadron collider at N$^3$LO in perturbative QCD is within reach.

description: Objective: Describe a unique case of preganglionic Horner Syndrome due to middle third clavicle fracture. Methods: A 40 year-old man, hemodynamically stable, presented at the emergency room with left ptosis and miosis after a car accident. Complete ophthalmological examination including external exam, pupil and extraocular movement evaluation, best corrected visual acuity, biomicroscopy, tonometry and fundus exam was performed. Further investigation included chest and pelvic X-rays and pharmacological testing of pupillary reactions. Results: Ophthalmological examination showed no alterations except for ptosis and miosis on the left eye. The X-rays revealed displaced clavicle fracture, third rib and ischiopubic branch fractures on the left side. Apraclonidine and phenylephrine tests diagnosed second-order sympathetic chain lesion. One year later, ptosis persisted and conjunctivo-müllerectomy was performed. Conclusion: Traumatic mild ptosis and miosis alert to sympathetic chain interruption. Pharmacological tests are essential to localize and identify its cause. We present a preganglionic Horner Syndrome due to isolated middle third clavicle fracture, which to our knowledge is reported for the first time.

description: Two closely related discrete probability distributions are introduced. In each case the support is a set of vectors in $\mathbb{R}^n$ obtained from the partitions of the fixed positive integer $n$. These distributions arise naturally when considering equally-likely random permutations on the set of $n$ letters. For one of the distributions, the expectation vector and covariance matrix is derived. For the other distribution, conjectures for several elements of the expectation vector are provided.

description: Resumo / Abstract Objetivos: Propusemo-nos a comparar a espessura da camada de fibras nervosas peripapilar (CFNp) e complexo de células ganglionares (CCG) em crianças com antecedentes de prematuridade, sem antecedentes de ROP com necessidade de tratamento, e comparar com um grupo de crianças com gestação de termo. Material e métodos: Realizámos um estudo prospetivo transversal no qual avaliámos a CFN peripapilar através da realização de OCT-SD em 28 crianças prematuras (idade gestacional ≤ 32 semanas) e 25 crianças com gestação de termo (>37 semanas e peso normal ao nascimento). Os grupos foram ajustados para a idade, género e equivalente esférico. Resultados: Foram incluídas 53 crianças na análise, com uma média de idades de 8,9±0,7 anos no grupo dos prematuros (idade gestacional e peso médio ao nascimento, de 29,0 semanas e de 1175 gramas, respetivamente) e 8,3±1,4 anos no grupo controlo. Apenas 12% (n=3) das crianças prematuras desenvolveram ROP, sem necessidade de tratamento. Relativamente à espessura da CFNp e complexo de células ganglionares, não foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas tanto no valor médio (CFNp prematuro 102,4±10,7μm, controlos 103,8±10,1μm; p=0,728; CCG prematuros: 97± 6,5μm; controlos 96±5,4μm; p=0,247), assim como na análise por quadrantes. Conclusões: Na ausência de ROP, as crianças prematuras apresentam uma espessura de CFNp idêntica às crianças de termo. Abstract Purpose: To compare retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and ganglionar Cell cell complex (GCC) profiles between preterm without history of ROP treatment and full-term children. Methods: 53 children (28 premature and 25 full-term controls were studied with SD-OCT optic disc and macular centered scans. Both groups were adjusted to age, gender and spherical equivalente. Only 3 patients (12% had history of previous ROP, with spontaneous regression). Results: Regarding RNFL thickness, no statistically significant difference were found between groups (premature 102,4±10,7μm, controls 103,8±10,1μm; p=0,728); Similar results were obtained in GCC analysis (premature: 97± 6,5μm; controlos 96±5,4μm; p=0,247) Conclusion: In the absence of ROP, premature infants have a CFNp thickness profile similar to full-term children.

description: For a cosmological first-order electroweak phase transition, requiring no sphaleron washout of baryon number violating processes leads to a lower bound on the strength of the transition. The velocity of the boundary between the phases, the so-called bubble wall, can become ultra-relativistic if the friction due to the plasma of particles is not sufficient to retard the wall's acceleration. This bubble ``runaway'' should not occur if a successful baryon asymmetry generation due to the transition is required. Using Boedeker-Moore criterion for bubble wall runaway, within the context of an extension of the standard model of particle physics with a real gauge-single scalar field, we show that a non runaway transition requirement puts an upper bound on the strength of the first-order phase transition.

description: We report on an experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Villigen, Switzerland measuring x rays from muon transfer from deuterium to helium. Both the ground state transfer via the exotic dmu3,4He* molecules and the excited state transfer from mud* were measured. The use of CCD detectors allowed x rays from 1.5 keV to 11 keV to be detected with sufficient energy resolution to separate the transitions to different final states in both deuterium and helium. The x-ray peaks of the dmu3He* and dmu4He* molecules were measured with good statistics. For the D2+3He mixture, the peak has its maximum at E_dmu3He = 6768 +- 12 eV with FWHM Gamma_dmu3He = 863 +- 10 eV. Furthermore the radiative branching ratio was found to be kappa_dmu3He = 0.301 +- 0.061. For the D_2+4He mixture, the maximum of the peak lies at E_dmu4He = 6831 +- 8 eV and the FWHM is Gamma_dmu4He = 856 +- 10 eV. The radiative branching ratio is kappa_dmu4He = 0.636 +- 0.097. The excited state transfer is limited by the probability to reach the deuterium ground state, q_1s. This coefficient was determined for both mixtures: q^3He_1s = 68.9 +- 2.7% and q^4He_1s = 90.1 +- 1.5.

description: Introduction: The corneal dystrophies are rare corneal diseases, defined as bilateral, symmetric and inherited conditions. Ocular coloboma is a congenital defect caused by embryogenesis imperfection, during the sixth week of development. Purpose: The authors report the first clinical case in literature of the association of cornea dystrophy and irido-fundal coloboma. Case report: The authors describe the case of a 34-year-old woman, with decrease visual acuity (VA) in the right and left eyes (RLE). She has had an ocular illness since young, with corneal erosions. Her family members also have alterations in the cornea, her father has held a bilateral corneal transplant. Ophthalmic examination showed a best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/40 in the RE and 20/100 in the LE. Biomicroscopy showed an inferior iris coloboma in the LE. A deposition of reticular/granular substance in the Bowman’s layer was observed in both eyes, sparing the limbal portion, compatible with a corneal dystrophy. Fundus examination showed a coloboma in the LE that involves the inferior retina and the optic nerve, no changes in the RE fundus was observed. She started treatment with ocular lubrificant preservative-free eyedrops. The patient has remained stable within 1-year follow-up. Conclusions: This is the first case report of the association of cornea dystrophy and irido-fundal coloboma. The greater decrease in VA in the LE appears to be due to the combination of these two entities in this eye. Despite the Bowman’s layer dystrophy has an autosomal dominant pattern, coloboma seems to have been an acquired change.

description: Introdução: O astigmatismo corneano é o principal determinante do astigmatismo corneano total. Classicamente, assume-se uma relação fixa entre o astigmatismo anterior e posterior da córnea para deduzir a contribuição da superfície posterior da córnea. Tecnologia mais recente, baseada em imagens de Scheimpflug e na tomografia de coerência óptica, permite analisar de forma independente a superfície posterior da córnea. O objectivo do estudo é avaliar a contribuição do astigmatismo corneano anterior e posterior para o total e relacionar a magnitude e tipos de astigmatismo com a idade. Material e métodos: Os autores mediram o astigmatismo anterior, posterior e total através do tomógrafo Pentacam HR® (Oculus). Foram incluídos 123 olhos de 123 pessoas, com idades compreendidas entre os 20 e os 80 anos de idade, com um astigmatismo corneano superior a 1,00D e sem antecedentes de doença corneana ou procedimento cirúrgico corneano. Resultados: Verificou-se uma relação fraca e negativa entre os valores de astigmatismo corneano e a idade. Aproximadamente 94,1% da variação do astigmatismo total é explicada pelo astigmatismo anterior e posterior, sendo que o astigmatismo corneano anterior apresenta uma correlação positiva e o astigmatismo posterior uma correlação negativa. Verifica-se que, na superfície anterior da córnea, o astigmatismo a favor da regra surge em idades inferiores ao oblíquo, estando o astigmatismo contra a regra associado a idades mais avançadas aos dois tipos anteriores. Na superfície posterior, não existem diferenças significativas (teste ANOVA, p<0.05). Usando um modelo de regressão linear múltipla, observámos que valores mais altos de astigmatismo corneano anterior estão associados a valores mais altos de astigmatismo total (p>0,05). Por seu turno, valores mais altos de astigmatismo na superfície posterior da córnea estão associados a valores mais baixos de astigmatismo total (p<0,05). Conclusão: O astigmatismo corneano anterior contribui de forma diferente do astigmatismo posterior para o astigmatismo corneano total. Não podemos estimar o astigmatismo da superfície posterior da córnea avaliando apenas a sua superfície anterior. A definição da contribuição do astigmatismo corneano posterior para o astigmatismo corneano total assume um papel fundamental na correcção do astigmatismo na cirurgia de cristalino com implante de lente tórica. Ignorar o astigmatismo da superfície posterior da córnea pode conduzir a erros na correcção astigmática.

description: Caymania Ratcliffe and Cave, new genus
 Type Species. Caymania nitidissima Ratcliffe and Cave, new species, here designated.
 Description. Scarabaeidae: Dynastinae: Phileurini. Form elongate-oval, slightly flattened dorso-ventrally, pronotum widest at middle. Length 9.5-11.5 mm. Color dark reddish brown, almost black, strongly shining.  Head:  Surface lacking tubercles, instead with low, transverse carina; carina broadly interrupted at middle. Clypeus triangular, apex acute, reflexed. Eyes small, interocular width equals 9.0 transverse eye diameters. Antenna 10-segmented, antennomeres stout, club subequal in length to segments 2-7. Mandibles arcuate on lateral edge, apex acute.  Pronotum:  Surface evenly convex, lacking median furrow. Base with marginal bead.  Elytra:  Surface with weak rows of minute to small punctures, striae absent.  Pygidium:  Surface with sparse, minute punctures. In lateral view, surface in males weakly convex in basal half, strongly convex (almost protuberant) in apical half, surface in females weakly convex.  Legs:  Protibia tridentate, teeth subequally spaced. Apex of metatibia with upper angle prolonged into sharp tooth. Apex of first tarsomere of metatarsus prolonged into long spine.  Venter:  Prosternal process moderately tall, thick, apex broadly rounded. Last sternite impunctate.  Parameres:  Form symmetrical.
 Diagnosis. Caymania is distinguished from other phileurine genera, especially Hemiphileurus Kolbe to which it is probably most related, by mandibles entire (not toothed), clypeus acuminate, absence of tubercles on the frons, absence of a pronotal furrow, absence of elytral striae, presence of transverse carinae on the metatibiae, small size (less than 12 mm), and highly polished surface of the body. There are eight species of Hemiphileurus in the West Indies (Ratcliffe and Ivie 1998), but none occur on the Cayman Islands. The species of Caymania, along with the two species of Microphileurus Kolbe from South America, are the smallest of the New World Phileurini.
 Etymology. Named in reference to the Cayman Islands, to which it is endemic. The name Caymania is feminine.

description: The normal supply of vegetables is related to the people's livelihood and social stability, and smooth prices of vegetables are vital to social development. Based on the phenomenon of great fluctuations in the prices of vegetables in recent years, we use living example to analyze the real reasons for great fluctuations in the prices of vegetables from the perspective of supply chain node of vegetables and macroeconomic policies. Finally, from the balance of supply and demand, industry standardization, circulation, market order and the government mechanism, we put forth the following management strategies for controlling great fluctuations in the prices of vegetables: establishing and improving the channels of information transmission, making the production and marketing information symmetrical, and balancing supply and demand; actively promoting the industry standardization of vegetables; reducing the intermediate links, and curtailing the circulation cost of vegetables; regulating the "green channel" of vegetables, and preventing uptick in the prices of vegetables in the "last mile"; cracking down on the vegetable speculation behavior to ensure the healthy development of the vegetable market; actively giving play to the role of government, and building the vegetable protection system.

description: Magnetization and Hall resistivity have been investigated for single crystals of Dy-doped Nd$_{2}$Mo$_{2}$O$_{7}$. A sharp decrease of the Hall resistivity upon a metamagnetic transition, perhaps associated with magnetic-field ($H$) induced flop of Dy$^{3+}$ moments, has been observed in the Dy-doped crystals only for $H \parallel [111]$ direction. In addition, the sign of the Hall resistivity at a high field, both for $H \parallel [100]$ and for $H \parallel [111]$, changes with the Dy-doping. These results are explained in terms of the sign change of Mo spin chirality that is controlled by the Dy$^{3+}$ moments with a different sign of $f$-$d$ interaction from the Nd$^{3+}$ moments.

description: We investigate coherent nonlinear dynamics of 2D electrons under ultrafast intersubband excitation by mid-IR pulses. We include the effects of relaxation and dephasing, both homogeneous and inhomogeneous, as well as detuning within a non-Markovian equation to obtain temporal population redistributions. We show how, using a cross-correlation method, the effects of Rabi oscillations may be detected in this system, and briefly discuss other detection methods.

description: We investigate the decay mechanisms in the Ds+ --> omega pi+ and Ds+ --> rho0 pi+ transitions. The naive factorization ansatz predicts vanishing amplitude for the Ds+ --> omega pi+ decay, while the Ds+ --> rho0 pi+ decay amplitude does have an annihilation contribution also in this limit. Both decays can proceed through intermediate states of hidden strangeness, e.g. K, K*, which we estimate in this paper. These contributions can explain the experimental value for the Ds+ --> omega pi+ decay rate, which no longer can be viewed as a clean signature of the annihilation decay of Ds+. The combination of the π(1300) pole dominated annihilation contribution and the internal K, K* exchange can saturate present experimental upper bound on Ds+ --> rho0 pi+ decay rate, which is therefore expected to be within the experimental reach. Finally, the proposed mechanism of hidden strangeness FSI constitutes only a small correction to the Cabibbo allowed decay rates Ds--> K K*, phi pi, which are well described already in the factorization approximation.

description: How to measure the optical conductivity of atomically thin crystals is an important but challenging issue due to the weak light-matter interaction at the atomic scale. Photonic spin Hall effect, as a fundamental physical effect in light-matter interaction, is extremely sensitive to the optical conductivity of atomically thin crystals. Here, we report a precision measurement of the optical conductivity of graphene, where the photonic spin Hall effect acts as a measurement pointer. By incorporating with the weak-value amplification technique, the optical conductivity of monolayer graphene taken as a universal constant of $(0.993\pm0.005)σ_0$ is detected, and a high measuring resolution with $1.5\times10^{-8}Ω^{-1}$ is obtained. For few-layer graphene without twist, we find that the conductivities increase linearly with layer number. Our idea could provide an important measurement technique for probing other parameters of atomically thin crystals, such as magneto-optical constant, circular dichroism, and optical nonlinear coefficient.

Estudo retrospetivo dos doentes com queratocone do HFF: características clínicas, epidemiológicas e topográficas e fatores preditivos de progressão
Creators: name: Gonçalves, Ana Sofia Lopes
Publisher: name: Revista Sociedade Portuguesa de Oftalmologia
Year: 2017

description: Objetivos: Caracterizar clínica, epidemiológica e topograficamente os doentes com queratocone do HFF e determinar os fatores preditivos de progressão. Material e Métodos: Estudo retrospetivo de 93 olhos de 53 doentes com queratocone do HFF. Analisaram-se as características clínicas e epidemiológicas dos doentes e os parâmetros topográficos obtidos por Pentacam®. Estudaram-se os fatores preditivos de progressão dos casos de queratocone até ao estadio 2-3, com pelo menos dois exames de Pentacam® em pelo menos 1 ano, sem cirurgia nesse período (36 olhos, 27 doentes). Dividiram-se esses doentes entre grupo com e sem progressão, tendo como critério de progressão o aumento de pelo menos 1.50D na queratometria central. Resultados: Dos 53 doentes, 52.8% é do sexo masculino, com idade média de 23.3±5.97 anos e queratocone bilateral (76.9%). Atopia existe em 44.2% dos casos, eye rubbing habit em 66% e antecedente familiar de queratocone em 18.9%. 50% é portador de lentes de contacto, 17.5% colocou INTACS, 10.3% realizou cross-linking e 5.6% queratoplastia penetrante. O estadio 2 do queratocone foi o mais prevalente (23.7%). O cone é temporal inferior em 87.1%. Dos 36 olhos apenas progrediram 16. O eye rubbing habit e alguns parâmetros topográficos mostraram diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre os dois grupos. Os parâmetros que mostraram associação com a progressão da doença foram o Km da queratometria anterior, o astigmatismo anterior e posterior e a paquimetria central de forma marginal. Discussão: Um melhor conhecimento das características dos doentes permite uma intervenção mais eficaz. O Km da queratometria anterior, o astigmatismo anterior e posterior e a paquimetria central são potenciais fatores preditivos de progressão.

Four-point correlator constraints on electromagnetic chiral parameters and resonance effective Lagrangians

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We pursue the analysis of a set of generalized DGMLY sum rules for the electromagnetic chiral parameters at order $e^2p^2$ and discuss implications for effective Lagrangians with resonances. We exploit a formalism in which charge spurions are introduced and treated as sources. We show that no inconsistency arises from anomalies up to quadratic order in the spurions. We focus on the sum rules associated with QCD 4-point correlators which were not analyzed in detail before. Convergence properties of the sum rules are deduced from a general analysis of the form of the counterterms in the presence of electromagnetic spurions. Following the approach in which vector and axial-vector resonances are described with antisymmetric tensor fields and have a chiral order, we show that the convergence constraints are violated at chiral order four and can be satisfied by introducing a set of terms of order six. The relevant couplings get completely and uniquely determined from a set of generalized Weinberg sum-rule relations. An update on the corrections to Dashen's low-energy theorem is given.

Publisher: name: Revista Sociedade Portuguesa de Oftalmologia
Year: 2017

description: Objetivo: Os autores apresentam os resultados obtidos com a técnica de transplantação endotelial DMEK (Descemet´s Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty). Esta técnica permite uma rápida recuperação visual com baixas taxas de rejeição. Métodos: Quinze olhos de 15 pacientes com distrofia endotelial de Fuchs ou queratopatia bolhosa pseudofáquica foram submetidos a esta técnica. Melhor acuidade visual corrigida (MAVC), contagem endotelial, paquimetria e complicações foram avaliados à 1ª semana, 1°, 4° e 12º mês (tempo máximo de seguimento para todos os pacientes). Dos 15 olhos, 9 foram submetidos no mesmo tempo cirúrgico a facoemulsificação de catarata. Resultados: Aos 12 meses de follow-up, 67% dos olhos apresentavam MAVC superior ou igual a 0.8 e 25% igual a 1.0. A perda endotelial média foi de 34% (comparada com os valores prévios medidos no banco de olhos). Redução média da paquimetria central de 26%. A complicação mais frequente foi o descolamento parcial da membrana de Descemet, com necessidade de re-injeção de ar em 4 casos. Três casos desenvolveram falência endotelial, tendo sido posteriormente submetidos a DSAEK (Descemet-stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty). Hipertensão ocular secundária aos corticoides foi observada em 2 olhos. Não foi verificado nenhum caso de rejeição. Conclusão: Esta técnica apresenta, de forma consistente, uma recuperação rápida com bons resultados visuais e refrativos, além de permitir o aproveitamento de uma córnea dadora para 2 transplantes (anterior e posterior). A taxa de complicações poderá refletir o início da curva de aprendizagem inerente à técnica, ainda superior a outras técnicas de transplantação endotelial.
