description: The internet came with disruptive tools that have helped much to articulate and integrate some of the mind burgling innovations in media production and management. This has not been witnessed before. The disruptions have transformed life, media business and the global economy; making multimedia and online journalism and web newspaper publishing possible. This paper anchors on Schumpeter’s (1942) creative destruction theory and Clayton Christensen’s (1997) disruptive innovation theory. It adopts the qualitative conceptual study framework to examine the advent of the internet technology as a consequence of digitization and digital transformation and how it disrupted the traditional media production process including the printing technology and its newspaper press production process and ushers in a revolutionary trajectory in the mass media production and distribution system. The paper relied on secondary data sources to discuss concepts such as the newspaper press, the total newspaper concept, the changing media management landscape, timeline in technological disruptions in media communication, digitization, digitalization and digital transformation, multimedia and online journalism, media digital disruptions and the total newspaper concept. The paper argues that the internet made “media convergence” possible on the World Wide Web and provided other interactive accessories  that creatively destroyed and innovatively disrupted the distinct, disparate and separate media production processes of the newspaper, radio and television and converge them on the World Wide Web as web or online newspaper

description: The joint bidiagonalization(JBD) process is a useful algorithm for the computation of the generalized singular value decomposition(GSVD) of a matrix pair. However, it always suffers from rounding errors, which causes the Lanczos vectors to loss their mutual orthogonality. In order to maintain some level of orthongonality, we present a semiorthogonalization strategy. Our rounding error analysis shows that the JBD process with the semiorthogonalization strategy can ensure that the convergence of the computed quantities is not affected by rounding errors and the final accuracy is high enough. Based on the semiorthogonalization strategy, we develop the joint bidiagonalization process with partial reorthogonalization(JBDPRO). In the JBDPRO algorithm, reorthogonalizations occur only when necessary, which saves a big amount of reorthogonalization work compared with the full reorthogonalization strategy. Numerical experiments illustrate our theory and algorithm.

description: We present warped compactification solutions of six-dimensional supergravity, which are generalizations of the Randall-Sundrum warped brane world to codimension two and to a supersymmetric context. In these solutions the dilaton varies over the extra dimensions, and this makes the electroweak hierarchy only power-law sensitive to the proper radius of the extra dimensions (as opposed to being exponentially sensitive as in the RS model). Warping changes the phenomenology of these models because the Kaluza-Klein gap can be much larger than the internal space's inverse proper radius. We provide examples both for Romans' nonchiral supergravity and Salam-Sezgin chiral supergravity, and in both cases the solutions break all of the supersymmetries of the models. We interpret the solution as describing the fields sourced by a 3-brane and a boundary 4-brane (Romans' supergravity) or by one or two 3-branes (Salam-Sezgin supergravity), and we identify the topological constraints which are required by this interpretation. For both types of solutions the 3-branes are flat for all topologically-allowed values of the brane tensions. We identify the general mechanism for and limitations of the self-tuning of the effective 4D cosmological constant in higher-dimensional supergravity which these models illustrate.

description: We report the first study of the zero-temperature phase diagram of the Bose-Hubbard model on topologically inhomogeneous arrays. We show that the usual Mott-insulator and superfluid domains, in the paradigmatic case of the comb lattice, are separated by regions where the superfluid behaviour of the bosonic system is confined along the comb backbone. The existence of such {\it confined superfluidity}, arising from topological inhomogeneity, is proved by different analytical and numerical techniques which we extend to the case of inhomogeneous arrays. We also discuss the relevance of our results to real system exhibiting macroscopic phase coherence, such as coupled Bose condensates and Josephson arrays.

description: The Raman spectrum of the superconductor MgB$_{2}$ has been measured as a function of the Tc of the film. A striking correlation is observed between the $T_{c}$ onset and the frequency of the $E_{2g}$ mode. Analysis of the data with the McMillan formula provides clear experimental evidence for the collapse of the electron phonon coupling at the temperature predicted for the convergence of two superconducting gaps into one observable gap. This gives indirect evidence of the convergence of the two gaps and direct evidence of a transition to an isotropic state at 19 K. The value of the electron phonon coupling constant is found to be 1.22 for films with T$_{c}$ 39K and 0.80 for films with T$_{c}\leq$19K.

description: Purpose: This study aimed to define the behavioral determinants influencing the decision of intensivists to consult a poison center (PC) when managing patients with calcium channel blocker (CCB) poisoning. Material and methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted involving a convenience sample of 18 intensivists. Two independent reviewers analyzed the interview responses using the Theoretical Domains Framework. Based on the impact and frequency of the reported behaviors, we selected the most relevant domains likely to influence intensivists’ decision to consult a PC for CCB poisoning. Results: Beliefs influencing physicians positively to consult a PC for CCB poisoning were identified in the following domains: knowledge (e.g., lower level of evidence), social or professional role and identity (e.g., high credibility attributed to the PC), reinforcement (e.g., multiple drug poisoning, infrequent or potentially lethal poisoning, medicolegal considerations), and behavioral regulation (e.g., facilitated access of PC to patient’s hospital chart, direct communication with a toxicologist). Beliefs deterring physicians from consulting a PC for CCB poisoning were identified in the following domains: knowledge (e.g., better awareness of recommendations decreases tendency to call), goals (e.g., priority for patient stabilization), and memory, attention, and decision process (e.g., cognitive overload due to an unstable patient). Conclusion: This qualitative study identified potential behavioral targets that future implementation strategies should address to improve collaboration between PCs and intensivists. In light of our results, the Québec PC now asks clinicians if the poisoned patient is unstable prior to collecting any other information. When necessary, a teleconference with the toxicologist is proposed earlier than before.

description: Segmentation of abdominal organs has been a comprehensive, yet unresolved, research field for many years. In the last decade, intensive developments in deep learning (DL) have introduced new state-of-the-art segmentation systems. In order to expand the knowledge on these topics, the CHAOS - Combined (CT-MR) Healthy Abdominal Organ Segmentation challenge has been organized in conjunction with IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), 2019, in Venice, Italy. CHAOS provides both abdominal CT and MR data from healthy subjects for single and multiple abdominal organ segmentation. Five different but complementary tasks have been designed to analyze the capabilities of current approaches from multiple perspectives. The results are investigated thoroughly, compared with manual annotations and interactive methods. The analysis shows that the performance of DL models for single modality (CT / MR) can show reliable volumetric analysis performance (DICE: 0.98 $\pm$ 0.00 / 0.95 $\pm$ 0.01) but the best MSSD performance remain limited (21.89 $\pm$ 13.94 / 20.85 $\pm$ 10.63 mm). The performances of participating models decrease significantly for cross-modality tasks for the liver (DICE: 0.88 $\pm$ 0.15 MSSD: 36.33 $\pm$ 21.97 mm) and all organs (DICE: 0.85 $\pm$ 0.21 MSSD: 33.17 $\pm$ 38.93 mm). Despite contrary examples on different applications, multi-tasking DL models designed to segment all organs seem to perform worse compared to organ-specific ones (performance drop around 5\%). Besides, such directions of further research for cross-modality segmentation would significantly support real-world clinical applications. Moreover, having more than 1500 participants, another important contribution of the paper is the analysis on shortcomings of challenge organizations such as the effects of multiple submissions and peeking phenomena.

description: We report the results of the analysis of the extended soft emission discovered in the Chandra ACIS pointing at the merging system NGC 4038/39 (the Antennae). We present a `multi-color' X-ray image that suggests both extensive absorption by the dust in this system, peaking in the contact region, as well as variations in the temperature of different emitting regions of the hot interstellar medium (ISM). Spectral fits to multi-component thermal emission models confirm this picture and give a first evaluation of the parameters of the hot plasma. We compare the diffuse X-ray emission with radio continuum (6cm), HI, CO, and H$α$ images to take a first look at the multi-phase ISM of the Antennae galaxies. We find that the hot (X-ray) and cold (CO) gas have comparable thermal pressures in the two nuclear regions. We also conclude that the displacement between the peak of the diffuse X-ray emission in the north of the galaxy system, towards the inner regions of the northern spiral arm (as defined by H$α$, radio continuum and HI), could result from ram pressure of infalling HI clouds.

description: The contribution of incoherent single pion photoproduction to the spin response of the deuteron, i.e., the asymmetry of the total photoabsorption cross section with respect to parallel and antiparallel spins of photon and deuteron, is calculated over the region of the $Δ$-resonance with inclusion of final state $NN$- and $πN$-rescattering. Sizeable effects, mainly from $NN$-rescattering, are found leading to an appreciable reduction of the spin asymmetry. Furthermore, the contribution to the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn integral is explicitly evaluated by integration up to a photon energy of 550 MeV. Final state interaction reduces the value of the integral to about half of the value obtained for the pure impulse approximation.

 TYPE SPECIES. — Parendacustes cavicola Chopard, 1924.
DISTRIBUTION. — Genus mostly diversified in Papua New Guinea and Malaysia, and known from the Nicobar Islands in the West to New Caledonia in the East. It is reported here from the Vanuatu for the first time.
 Two species are present in our samples by juveniles only. They are tentatively placed in the genus Parendacustes, to which they are broadly similar (size, number of tibial spurs and shape of male pseudepiphallic sclerite in sp. 1). As Parendacustes lifouensis Desutter-Grandcolas, 2002, their number ofTIII subapical spurs is reduced compared to other species of the genus, with 3-4 outer and 1-2 inner spurs (three outer and two inner subapical spurs in P. lifouensis).

description: We analyze the localization properties of the disordered Hubbard model in the presence of a synthetic magnetic field. An analysis of level spacing ratio shows a clear transition from ergodic to many-body localized phase. The transition shifts to larger disorder strengths with increasing magnetic flux. Study of dynamics of local correlations and entanglement entropy indicates that charge excitations remain localized whereas spin degree of freedom gets delocalized in the presence of the synthetic flux. This residual ergodicity is enhanced by the presence of the magnetic field with dynamical observables suggesting incomplete localization at large disorder strengths. Furthermore, we examine the effect of quantum statistics on the local correlations and show that the long-time spin oscillations of a hard-core boson system are destroyed as opposed to the fermionic case.

description: Family COLLONIIDAE Cossmann, 1916  DIAGNOSIS. — Shell with or without interior nacreous layer; aperture nearly radial to oblique; aperture circular with complete peristome, to oval with interrupted peristome. Operculum calcified, circular to oblong; aperture conforming to outline of operculum, which is enveloped on outer side by foot; pattern of outer side varies by genus; inner surface conical or flat, multispiral or multispiral becoming paucispiral.
REMARKS
 This group was originally intended to apply to non-nacreous genera, in contrast to the nacreous Homalopomatinae Keen, 1960, but Hickman & McLean (1990: 47) included both non-nacreous and nacreous genera in the group. The operculum is known in Cretaceous to Recent groups. Paleontologists concerned with Mesozoic faunas have recognised the family Colloniidae in the Jurassic, for groups with the operculum unknown, as discussed by Monari et al. (1966). Such groups are not further mentioned here.
In the typical subfamily Colloniinae, which applies to most living genera, apertures can vary from circular in outline, to elongate; the operculum is flat-surfaced on the inner side, multispiral in early stages and changing to paucispiral in the final whorl.
 The Cretaceous subfamily Petropomatinae, as treated by McLean & Kiel (2007), has dominant spiral sculpture and an operculum that is circular in outline, with the inner surface multispiral and conical, and the outer side with fewer whorls and a central pit. Genera include Petropoma Gabb, 1877, and Sohlipoma McLean & Kiel, 2007, in which spiral sculpture is dominant. The genus Liotipoma McLean & Kiel, 2007 was originally assigned to Petropomatinae, but is here assigned to a new subfamily:

Resultados: Ao longo do artigo, são abordados os diversos espaços cirúrgicos da órbita, os vários tipos de orbitotomia (ântero-superior, ântero-inferior, ântero-medial, ântero-lateral, lateral e transcraniana), e ainda as cirurgias de evisceração, enucleação e exenteração. Conclusões: Apesar de ser um espaço relativamente pequeno e completamente delimitado por paredes ósseas excepto na sua face anterior, a órbita pode ser abordada cirurgicamente por múltiplas vias, cada uma das quais tem vantagens e desvantagens. A selecção da via de abordagem cirúrgica depende das características da lesão (natureza, tamanho e localização), bem como da preferência do cirurgião, embora haja tendência para favorecer cada vez mais as abordagens anteriores, menos invasivas.

description: Non-volatile memory (NVM) is a promising technology for low-energy and high-capacity main memory of computers. The characteristics of NVM devices, however, tend to be fundamentally different from those of DRAM (i.e., the memory device currently used for main memory), because of differences in principles of memory cells. Typically, the write latency of an NVM device such as PCM and ReRAM is much higher than its read latency. The asymmetry in read/write latencies likely affects the performance of applications significantly. For analyzing behavior of applications running on NVM-based main memory, most researchers use software-based emulation tools due to the limited number of commercial NVM products. However, these existing emulation tools are too slow to emulate a large-scale, realistic workload or too simplistic to investigate the details of application behavior on NVM with asymmetric read/write latencies. This paper therefore proposes a new NVM emulation mechanism that is not only light-weight but also aware of a read/write latency gap in NVM-based main memory. We implemented the prototype of the proposed mechanism for the Intel CPU processors of the Haswell architecture. We also evaluated its accuracy and performed case studies for practical benchmarks. The results showed that our prototype accurately emulated write-latencies of NVM-based main memory: it emulated the NVM write latencies in a range from 200 ns to 1000 ns with negligible errors from 0.2% to 1.1%. We confirmed that the use of our emulator enabled us to successfully estimate performance of practical workloads for NVM-based main memory, while an existing light-weight emulation model misestimated.

description: In a semiclassical context we investigate the Zitterbewegung of relativistic particles with spin 1/2 moving in external fields. It is shown that the analogue of Zitterbewegung for general observables can be removed to arbitrary order in \hbar by projecting to dynamically almost invariant subspaces of the quantum mechanical Hilbert space which are associated with particles and anti-particles. This not only allows to identify observables with a semiclassical meaning, but also to recover combined classical dynamics for the translational and spin degrees of freedom. Finally, we discuss properties of eigenspinors of a Dirac-Hamiltonian when these are projected to the almost invariant subspaces, including the phenomenon of quantum ergodicity.

description: Context: Primary spinal primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) of the central nervous system has a low incidence. The intraspinal case is very rare. Around 30 cases have been reported so far. We summarized the cases of primary spinal PNET available in the database of our institute, either intramedullary or extramedullary cases. Then we did literature review of the same disease. Findings: There were eight cases of primary spinal PNET available in our database, with one intramedullary case and seven extramedullary cases. Surgical resection was performed. The histology diagnosis was PNET. Peri-operative image examinations of the whole central nervous system (CNS) were performed to exclude tumors other than spinal cord origin. Then during literature review, 33 reports of the disease were included. The pre-operative diagnosis rate was low. The disease had a high recurrence rate and poor prognosis given available treatment. Conclusion: Primary spinal primitive neuroectodermal tumor is of high malignancy. Little is known due to its quite low incidence. The prognosis is poor due to lacking of effective treatment strategy. Present treatment strategy is referred to other common CNS malignancies like glioma. Further investigation of the disease is necessary.

Depressipoma

description: Genus Depressipoma n. gen.
 TYPE SPECIES. — Depressipoma laddi n. sp.
DIAGNOSIS. — Profile low with strong peripheral angulation midway on whorl, maximum diameter 3.3 mm; whorls rounded above and below peripheral carination, shoulder and base with narrow spiral cords, axial sculpture of narrow, projecting ribs; umbilical area broad, with deposition of callus to strengthen shell; final lip broad and projecting, composed of successive layers of fine lamellae; base of lip with short triangular tongue.
DISTRIBUTION. — Marshall Islands, Micronesia, west of the international date line and just north of the Equator.
REMARKS
 Two species resemble Liotipoma in sculpture, have a similar aperture and lip with the projecting tongue, but have such a low profile that there would be no possibility to form a brood chamber within the umbilical cavity.The specimen of D.laddi n. sp. shows a lumpy deposition of callus across the umbilical area, which serves to strengthen the shell in the position at which its weak early stage would need fortification. The specimen of D. kwajaleina n. sp. is in poor condition with agglutinated sand obscuring what is probably the same feature in the umbilical cavity.

description: We study the proton magic O, Ca, Ni, Zr, Sn, and Pb isotope chains from the proton drip line to the neutron drip line with the relativistic continuum Hartree-Bogoliubov (RCHB) theory. Particulary, we study in detail the properties of even-even Ca isotopes due to the appearance of giant halos in neutron rich Ca nuclei near the neutron drip line. The RCHB theory is able to reproduce the experimental binding energies $E_b$ and two neutron separation energies $S_{2n}$ very well. The predicted neutron drip line nuclei are $^{28}$O, $^{72}$Ca, $^{98}$Ni, $^{136}$Zr, $^{176}$Sn, and $^{266}$Pb, respectively. Halo and giant halo properties predicted in Ca isotopes with $A>60$ are investigated in detail from the analysis of two neutron separation energies, nucleon density distributions, single particle energy levels, the occupation probabilities of energy levels including continuum states. The spin-orbit splitting and the diffuseness of nuclear potential in these Ca isotopes are studied also. Furthermore, we study the neighboring lighter isotopes in the drip line Ca region and find some possibility of giant halo nuclei in the Ne-Na-Mg drip line nuclei.

Rhombipoma

description: Genus Rhombipoma n. gen.
 TYPE SPECIES. — Rhombipoma rowleyana n. sp.
DIAGNOSIS. — Whorl profile low, rounded; with whorl expansion to make final quarter whorl more projecting, sculpture of about 22 axial ribs; axial ribs absent in on final ∕₆ whorl, replaced by more prominent lamellae (lamellae not evident on earlier whorls); the final prominent lamellae continue to form the final lip; spiral sculpture of two beaded cords at periphery; lip very strongly projecting, of eight projecting axial lamellae.
DISTRIBUTION. — Known only from type species, from shallow sublittoral depths, Rowley Shoals, off northwestern Western Australia.
REMARKS
 This genus is comparable to Depressipoma n. gen. in its small size and low profile, differing in having a rounded, rather than carinate periphery, and in having reduced spiral sculpture on the shoulder and base, compared to that of Depressipoma n. gen. and Liotipoma. Whorl expansion is most extreme for all members of the subfamily. The final lip is more projecting than in species of Liotipoma and Depressipoma n. gen., and the lamellae of the projecting lip are larger and fewer, matched in prominence by the lamellae that precede the final lip.

description: Purpose: This study aimed to define the behavioral determinants influencing the decision of intensivists to consult a poison center (PC) when managing patients with calcium channel blocker (CCB) poisoning. Material and methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted involving a convenience sample of 18 intensivists. Two independent reviewers analyzed the interview responses using the Theoretical Domains Framework. Based on the impact and frequency of the reported behaviors, we selected the most relevant domains likely to influence intensivists’ decision to consult a PC for CCB poisoning. Results: Beliefs influencing physicians positively to consult a PC for CCB poisoning were identified in the following domains: knowledge (e.g., lower level of evidence), social or professional role and identity (e.g., high credibility attributed to the PC), reinforcement (e.g., multiple drug poisoning, infrequent or potentially lethal poisoning, medicolegal considerations), and behavioral regulation (e.g., facilitated access of PC to patient’s hospital chart, direct communication with a toxicologist). Beliefs deterring physicians from consulting a PC for CCB poisoning were identified in the following domains: knowledge (e.g., better awareness of recommendations decreases tendency to call), goals (e.g., priority for patient stabilization), and memory, attention, and decision process (e.g., cognitive overload due to an unstable patient). Conclusion: This qualitative study identified potential behavioral targets that future implementation strategies should address to improve collaboration between PCs and intensivists. In light of our results, the Québec PC now asks clinicians if the poisoned patient is unstable prior to collecting any other information. When necessary, a teleconference with the toxicologist is proposed earlier than before.

description: Farm programs of the Federal Government kept farm prices and incomes higher than they otherwise would have been in 1953-65, thereby providing economic incentives to growth in output sufficient to keep farm prices lower than otherwise during 1968-72. The latter result differs significantly from findings in other historical free market studies. These conclusions stem from an analysis of the programs in which a two-sector (crops and livestock) econometric model was used to simulate historical and free-market production, price, and resource adjustments in U.S. agriculture. Supplies are affected by risk and uncertainty in the model, and farm technological change is endogenous.

description: It has been predicted that transverse spin current can propagate coherently (without dephasing) over a long distance in antiferromagnetically ordered metals. Here, we estimate the dephasing length of transverse spin current in ferrimagnetic CoGd alloys by spin pumping measurements across the compensation point. A modified drift-diffusion model, which accounts for spin-current transmission through the ferrimagnet, reveals that the dephasing length is about 4-5 times longer in nearly compensated CoGd than in ferromagnetic metals. This finding suggests that antiferromagnetic order can mitigate spin dephasing -- in a manner analogous to spin echo rephasing for nuclear and qubit spin systems -- even in structurally disordered alloys at room temperature. We also find evidence that transverse spin current interacts more strongly with the Co sublattice than the Gd sublattice. Our results provide fundamental insights into the interplay between spin current and antiferromagnetic order, which are crucial for engineering spin torque effects in ferrimagnetic and antiferromagnetic metals.

description: We study a realistic model for driven qubits using the numerical solution of the Bloch-Redfield equation as well as analytical approximations using a high-frequency scheme. Unlike in idealized rotating-wave models suitable for NMR or quantum optics, we study a driving term which neither is orthogonal to the static term nor leaves the adiabatic energy value constant. We investigate the underlying dynamics and analyze the spectroscopy peaks obtained in recent experiments. We show, that unlike in the rotating-wave case, this system exhibits nonlinear driving effects.We study the width of spectroscopy peaks and show, how a full analysis of the parameters of the system can be performed by comparing the first and second resonance. We outline the limitations of the NMR linewidth formula at low temperature and show, that spectrocopic peaks experience a strong shift which goes much beyond the Bloch-Siegert shift of the Eigenfrequency.

Paraliotipoma

description: Genus Paraliotipoma n. gen.
 TYPE SPECIES. — Paraliotipoma sirenkoi n. sp.
DIAGNOSIS. — Profile moderately high, with projecting peripheral carination, with weaker cords on shoulder and base, axial sculpture of about 20 primary ribs extending across shoulder and base; axial sculpture extending to partially obstruct umbilicus in final quarter whorl; umbilicus narrow; final whorl expanding, projecting; lip not angular, thickened by repeating lamellae.
DISTRIBUTION. — Known only from type species, from Chimetan Bank, South China Sea (west of Palawan, Philippine Islands).
REMARKS
 This genus is clearly a member of Liotipomatinae n. subfam., for its fine axial lamellae, similar size to Liotipoma, shell profile with a peripheral angulation and projecting final lip. It differs from Liotipoma in having the lip profile in basal view more rounded, rather than angulate as in Liotipoma, and it does not have the tongue that extends from the base of the inner lip and projects across the umbilicus as in Liotipoma. The basal cords are narrower than is usual in the species of Liotipoma.
 The fine lamellae between the primary axial ribs that approach the final lip are enlarged, as in Rhombipoma n. gen.

description: The renormalisation group running of the quark mass is determined non-perturbatively for a large range of scales, by computing the step scaling function in the Schroedinger Functional formalism of quenched lattice QCD both with and without O(a) improvement. A one-loop perturbative calculation of the discretisation effects has been carried out for both the Wilson and the Clover-improved actions and for a large number of lattice resolutions. The non-perturbative computation yields continuum results which are regularisation independent, thus providing convincing evidence for the uniqueness of the continuum limit. As a byproduct, the ratio of the renormalisation group invariant quark mass to the quark mass, renormalised at a hadronic scale, is obtained with very high accuracy.

description: Purpose: to report an unusual case of Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) and simultaneous ocular hypertension. Methods: case report of a 40 year-old patient, who complained of recently noticed vision loss in the right eye (OD). Results: OD presented with simultaneous ocular hypertension, optic atrophy and total cupping, leading to the suspicion of glaucomatous optic atrophy. Progressive vision loss was later noticed in the left eye (OS), but no fundoscopic findings were detected in sequential examinations. The patient became increasingly anxious and uncooperative, raising the hypothesis of non-organic visual loss in OS. Several visual evoked potentials were needed to prove reduction of P100 wave. Genetic results for LHON were positive for the 11778 G>A mutation. Conclusions: This case highlights the importance of considering the diagnosis of LHON in all cases of unexplained optic neuropathy, including cases with normal fundoscopic appearance. It also emphasizes that nonorganic vision loss should always be a diagnosis of exclusion in the context of unexplained vision loss. Concomitant LHON and glaucoma have been rarely described and it is uncertain whether LHON-associated mitochondrial DNA mutations are risk factors for glaucoma. However it is hypothesized that the two diseases may have a cumulative effect on retinal ganglion cell damage with the consequent rapid progression of visual impairment.
