- 遺伝学
- 小児科学
背景:
- 聴覚障害児は眼科検査を受けることが多いですが、最適なスクリーニング時期は確立されていません。
- 眼異常は、聴覚障害児における遺伝性症候群と関連している可能性があります。
研究 の 目的:
- 聴覚障害児における異常眼所見の有病率と発症を決定すること。
- 無症候性の聴覚障害児に対する最適なスクリーニングスケジュールを知らせること。
主な方法:
- 15年間にわたる11,437人の聴覚障害児の後ろ向きコホート研究。
- 眼科および医療記録のレビュー、眼異常所見および遺伝子検査を含む。
- 年齢別の眼異常の有病率、発症、スクリーニング収率の分析。
主要な成果:
- 聴覚障害児の19.2%に眼異常が見られました。
- 症候群関連の可能性が12.7%の症例で同定されました。
- スクリーニングの累積感度は15歳までに90-96%に達し、5歳以降の収率は低下しました。
結論:
- 聴覚障害児における眼異常は、小児期および青年期を通じて現れる可能性があります。
- 推奨されるスクリーニングには、診断時、2年後、5歳、10歳、15歳での検査が含まれます。
- 遺伝子検査の結果は、眼科スクリーニング間隔を個別化するのに役立つ可能性があります。

When we hear a sound, our nervous system is detecting sound waves—pressure waves of mechanical energy traveling through a medium. The frequency of the wave is perceived as pitch, while the amplitude is perceived as loudness.

Abnormal Proliferation
5.3K
Under normal conditions, most adult cells remain in a non-proliferative state unless stimulated by internal or external factors to replace lost cells. Abnormal cell proliferation is a condition in which the cell's growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal cells. In such situations, cell division persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli, leading to persistent tumors. The tumor arises from the damaged cells that replicate to pass the damage to the...

Line Loss

The different configurations of source-load connections include wye (star) and delta connections. The relationship between line and phase voltages and currents varies depending on the configuration. When the source is supplying power, it is transmitted through the wires to the load, and during this transmission, some power is absorbed by the wires, leading to line loss.
Line loss impacts power delivery efficiency in a balanced three-phase circuit. The symmetry in such a circuit simplifies the...

Reducing Line Loss
393
In a three-phase circuit, line loss is an indicator of energy dissipated as heat due to the resistance of transmission lines. To address this, incorporating transformers into the system—a step-up transformer at the source and a step-down transformer at the load—is a strategic solution. Two three-phase transformers are introduced to improve this.
With a step-up transformer at the source, the voltage is increased, thereby reducing the current in the transmission lines since power loss in...

Respiratory System Abnormal Finding I: Inspection and Percussion

Respiratory system abnormalities are a significant concern in healthcare due to their potential to indicate underlying severe conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, and pneumonia. These abnormalities can often be detected through physical examination methods like inspection and percussion.
