Is contrast sensitivity loss coupled with capillary dropout in patients with diabetes?
The alterations of the perifoveal network are related to selective disturbances of central visual function as measured by contrast sensitivity. In patients with diabetes measurement of contrast sensitivity may provide a clinical adjunct in further identifying early ischemic diabetic maculopathy.
The incidence of subcutaneous emphysema increased with higher intraabdominal pressure during gynecology laparoscopy. Low BMI and increased intraoperative ETco(2) concentration were also related to the occurrence of subcutaneous emphysema.
