This book provides a detailed analysis of the role of ocular blood flow (OBF) in glaucoma, examining measurement techniques, mechanisms of autoregulation, vascular risk factors (including blood pressure, age, and migraine), and the relationship between blood flow, ocular structure, and visual function. It assesses OBF's significance alongside traditional risk factors like intraocular pressure (IOP), covering diagnostic methods like Color Doppler imaging and Laser speckle flowgraphy, and the effects of topical medications.
A thorough review examining pulmonary surfactant's critical role in lung function. It challenges the conventional model (compression-driven squeeze-out) for maintaining low surface tension and proposes an alternative model: the formation of a saturated-lipid-enriched film shortly after birth via an adsorption-driven sorting process. The review examines biophysical evidence and tests the new model against physiological evidence related to neonatal and adult lung pathology, including Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.
