This journal article details the retrospective evaluation of stains (potassium hydroxide plus calcofluor white, Gram, Giemsa, and modified Ziehl-Neelsen) for detecting microsporidia in corneal scrapings from 30 patients. The study concluded that KOH CFW (96.7%) and acid-fast stains (93.3%) were the most efficient methods for the diagnosis of microsporidial keratitis.

This article analyzes the physiological definitions of ischemic injury (oligemia, penumbra, infarction) and the challenges of using current neuroimaging techniques (perfusion CT/MR, DWI-MR) to reliably differentiate these stages in acute ischemic stroke. It highlights the inconsistencies between imaging findings and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) values, arguing for a physiology-based approach to treatment decisions regarding reperfusion therapy rather than relying solely on time windows or imaging alone.
An annual review summarizing current literature, research abstracts, and expert commentary in key areas of ophthalmology, including Cataract Surgery and Refractive Surgery.
