Course of intraocular pressure after vitreoretinal surgery: is early postoperative intraocular pressure elevation predictable?
Patients treated for proliferative diabetic retinopathy traction RD and for primary rhegmatogenous RD were at high risk for prolonged IOP elevation. These groups also required medical retreatment most often and should therefore be closely monitored. Care must be taken not to overlook delayed IOP elevations.
FIZ enables the direct assessment of in situ gelatinolytic activity in bladder cancer tissues. The intensity of activity appears to affect the biology of carcinoma tissues. Our results indicate a major role for MMP-2 in in situ gelatinolysis in bladder cancer.
