Filter by:the concept of spherical equivalent plays a pivotal role in simplifying the prescription and enhancing communication between eye care professionals and patients. The spherical equivalent is a calculated value that condenses the spherical and cylindrical components into a single power.
The purpose of this research study is to observe the patient's clinical care and how EYLEA® HD is used as a treatment in real-world settings. Patients are asked to join the study because they have either neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD/wet age-related macular degeneration [AMD]) or diabetic macular edema (DME). Patients cannot have used EYLEA® HD in the past and the doctor must be planning to treat nAMD or DME with a new prescription of EYLEA® HD (aflibercept 8 mg).
Biodiversity is essential for nature and human well-being. Land use has reduced biodiversity in cities, which weakens the functionality of the urban ecosystems and the well-being of citizens. This may also increase the risk of immune-mediated disorders among urban dwellers. In Biodiversity interventions for assisted living centers (BIWE 2), microbial biodiversity interventions are performed to increase biodiversity in urban housing units for people with autism spectrum disorder, disabled people and elderly. Results from the intervention trials are combined with publicly available land cover and ecological data. These are analyzed from the viewpoint of shifts in ecosystems and human well-being and immune regulation, ecological quality, and urban planning. The investigators set up an intervention study in which yards of the housing units are rewilded with diverse vegetation and decaying deadwood and plant residuals. The investigators aim to evaluate the effect of rewilding, and yard management practices on commensal microbiome, cortisol levels and well-being and salivary cytokine levels, and gene pathways.
My Space aims to identify the ontogenesis of spatial representation through cross-sectional and longitudinal studies in infants, children, and adolescents with typical and atypical development (visual impairments). The results will serve for the design and development of a novel multisensory device for sensorimotor rehabilitation in blind children from the early stages of life.
The broad goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate whether a one-month rehabilitative training with our medical device, iReach, can promote the recovery of spatial and sensorimotor abilities and the cortical reorganization process in children with visual impairment between 3 and 36 months of age.
Purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between the visual impairment degree and the level of children's fundamental motor skills, balance and bilateral coordination.
Purpose: This project aimed to examine the effects of laughter yoga, which is accepted as an international nursing initiative, on loneliness, anger and salivary cortisol levels in visually impaired individuals. When the national and international literature was examined, no project was found that measured the results of laughter yoga as an intervention for visually impaired individuals. For this reason, planning an original project in this field aims to contribute to the literature. Thanks to the evidence obtained, laughter yoga, an innovative approach, can be disseminated in institutions and organizations serving visually impaired individuals as an evidence-based practice that can improve the social skills of individuals. Scope and Target Audience: The project will be carried out with visually impaired individuals receiving services in the Disabled Persons Department within the Atatürk Provincial Public Library located in Konak district of Izmir. In this section, services are provided to 250 members who actively use the library and to visually impaired people from all over Turkey. Method and Expected Result: The project was planned in a randomized controlled, pre-test post-test, single-blind follow-up consultancy design. With this initiative, a social rehabilitation environment will be provided for visually impaired individuals by taking an approach based on respect, understanding and awareness. Laughter yoga is expected to reduce the level of anger and loneliness in visually impaired individuals. At the same time, laughter yoga is expected to reduce cortisol levels, which are known to increase when faced with stress factors, and increase serotonin, which is associated with happiness and vitality, and endorphine, known as the body's natural painkiller. With laughter yoga sessions, a social environment will be created where visually impaired individuals will have an active and independent experience. Thanks to the expected evidence, laughter yoga can be popularized both in visually impaired individuals and in individuals with other disabilities. Within the scope of protecting and improving health, laughter yoga can be planned to be carried out as a routine nursing practice in disabled centers. Thus, by creating an environment where visually impaired individuals and nurses come together, a more accessible health service will be provided to individuals with special needs.
In patients with hemianopsia following stroke or brain injury, we will determine if stimulating the visual field with images from a PowerPoint slide set can increase the visual field.
The objective of this project is to create richer tactile aids by using materials chemistry to create tactile sensations in tactile aids, as an alternative to traditional physical bumps, lines, or textures. These materials are commonly used in household products, but have not yet been used to enrich tactile aids. Successful outcomes are primarily the accuracy with which low vision or blind subjects identify objects made from tactile coatings versus traditional tactile aids. Other outcomes include time to completion of the task, or the number of distinctive categories that participants can identify.
Current study will be conducted on the Effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Intervention for Emotional and Behavioural Problems of Students with Visual Impairment. Mindfulness-based Intervention that is Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) will be used in the current study which is adapted and translated in Urdu language; the pilot trial of MBSR will be conducted after adaptation and translation. The present study will be conducted in two phases - First phase of the study would be a cross-sectional survey in which the researcher will conduct a baseline assessment to identify psychosocial predictors such as psychological distress, parental acceptance and rejection, social support, and mindfulness which are associated with the emotional and behavioural problems of students with visual impairment. Further emotional and behavioural problems of the students with visual impairment will identify. - The second phase of the research would be a Randomized Controlled Trial in which students with Visual Impairment who has scored high on psychosocial predictors and emotional & behavioural problems would be randomly assigned to intervention & control groups to get the MBSR training. After the successful training post-assessment would be conducted to check the efficacy of MBSR. - The current study will be conducted in Rawalpindi Islamabad after obtaining permission from the relevant authorities. - Data would be collected from the students with visual impairment and their respective parents.
