Chair Conformation of Cyclohexane

Chair Conformation of Cyclohexane

The chair conformation is the most stable form of cyclohexane due to the absence of angle and torsional strain. The absence of angle strain is a result of cyclohexane’s bond angle being very close to the ideal tetrahedral bond angle of 109.5° in its chair conformer. Similarly, the torsional strain is also absent owing to the perfectly staggered arrangement of bonds.
The hydrogen atoms linked to carbons are arranged in two different axial and equatorial orientations to achieve this staggered...

Stereoisomerism of Cyclic Compounds

Stereoisomerism of Cyclic Compounds

In this lesson, we delve into the role of ring conformation and its stability, which determines the spatial arrangement and, consequently, the molecular symmetry and stereoisomerism of cyclic compounds. 1,2-Dimethylcyclohexane is used as a case study to evaluate the possible number of stereoisomers. Here, given the multiple (n = 2) chiral centers, there are 2n = 4 possible configurations that lack a plane of symmetry, as the ring skeleton exists in a non-planar chair conformation. In addition,...

Mechanism of Ciliary Motion

Mechanism of Ciliary Motion

The ciliary structures were first seen in 1647 by Antonie Leeuwenhoek while observing the protozoans. In lower organisms, these appendages are responsible for cell movement, while in higher organisms, these appendages help in the movement of the extracellular fluids within the body cavities.
The cilia are made up of microtubules in a 9+2 arrangement, with nine microtubule doublet ring bundles, surrounding a pair of central singlet microtubule bundles. The doublet microtubule bundles are...

Deformation in a Circular Shaft

Deformation in a Circular Shaft

One of the distinctive characteristics of circular shafts is their ability to maintain their cross-sectional integrity under torsion. In other words, each cross-section continues to exist as a flat, unaltered entity, simply rotating like a solid, rigid slab. To understand the distribution of shearing stress within such a shaft, consider a cylindrical section inside this circular shaft. This section has a length of L and a radius of R, with one end fixed. The radius of the cylindrical section is...

Area of Science:

Ophthalmology
Biomedical Engineering
Clinical Research

Background:

Cataract and refractive lens exchange surgeries are common procedures.
Intraocular lenses (IOLs) are implanted to restore vision.
Rotational stability of IOLs is crucial for optimal visual outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

To review and summarize clinical rotational stability data for the POD platform with double C-loop haptics.
To assess the performance of this platform in patients following cataract or refractive lens exchange.

Main Methods:

A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed.
Included prospective and retrospective clinical studies (2013-2024).
Analyzed data from 19 studies encompassing 1428 eyes.

Main Results:

The POD platform demonstrated good rotational stability across various IOL models (monofocal, trifocal) and materials (hydrophilic, hydrophobic).
Mean rotation across all studies was 2.61 degrees.
Data analyzed included mean rotation, rotation ranges, and percentage of eyes with rotation up to 26 months follow-up.

Conclusions:

The POD platform with double C-loop haptics provides reliable rotational stability.
This stability is maintained irrespective of IOL design or material composition.
The platform is a suitable option for achieving stable IOL placement in refractive lens surgery.
