Abstract:
Vitreous detachment is a rarely reported manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We present here the case of a 20-year-old woman with a history of SLE who presented with a decrease in vision in both eyes, massive hepatosplenomegaly, and multiple joint pain. B-scan ultrasonography revealed bilateral vitreous detachment. Ocular involvement in SLE is associated with high disease activity and morbidity. Therefore, ophthalmological screening for ocular involvement is important for SLE patients at any age.

First Order Systems
When a first-order system is subjected to a unit-step input, its response is characterized by its transfer function. By applying the Laplace transform of the unit-step input to the transfer function, expanding the...

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Classification of Systems-I
Homogeneity dictates that if an input x(t) is multiplied by a constant c, the output y(t) is multiplied by the same constant. Mathematically, this is expressed as:
