Objective: To investigate the clinical significance of the Octopus 101 kinetic and Static combined automatic perimetry in Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (AION). To assess the merit and demerit of Octopus 101 kinetic and static combined automatic perimetry performed in AION cases.
Methods: 45 AION patients were detected with Octopus 101 with kinetic and static 30 degrees, 60 degrees scope static program from June 2006 to September 2008. The mean defect (MD), loss variance (LV), areas of isopter, and reaction time were analyzed. The correlation between MD, areas of isopter and reaction time were analyzed.
Results: In AION, there are kinds of visual field defect related to the optic lesions in static perimetry examine. Kinetic programme display the isopter deletion. Isopter areas using I-2e and III-4e stimulus are significantly different (P < 0.05). Smaller stimulus can find more periphery changes in AION.
Conclusions: The Octopus 101 perimeter can provide static and kinetic program in the same sitting. In clinical practice it is necessary to perform both static and kinetic examination in patients with AION because the visual field defects are diverse, and the data provided by static and kinetic program are complementary.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the acceptance of innovative perimetry methods such as virtual reality perimetry (VRP) and tablet-based perimetry (TBP) in comparison to conventional hemisphere perimetry (HP) in glaucoma patients for the first time in Germany.
Patients And Methods: We examined 204 glaucoma patients using the 30 - 2 TOP algorithm (Octopus, Haag-Streit) followed by one of the two new methods: Group 1 (VRP; n = 101) and Group 2 (TBP using the Melbourne Rapid Fields Glaucoma App; n = 103). Subsequently, patients were asked to fill out a questionnaire on their experience with the new examination compared to the conventional examination.

Acute optic neuritis is often associated with multiple sclerosis. It is considered to be the most common ocular symptom of multiple sclerosis. In addition to acute optic neuritis, in patients with multiple sclerosis, subclinical optic neuritis is also described.

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have become a key solution for controlling multi-drug-resistant (MDR) pathogens, and the nanoencapsulation of AMPs has been used as a strategy to overcome challenges, such as poor stability, adverse interactions, and toxicity. In previous studies, we have shown the potent antimicrobial activity of Octominin against and This study is focused on the nanoencapsulation of Octominin with chitosan (CS) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) as a drug delivery system using the ionotropic gelation technique. Octominin-encapsulated CS nanoparticles (Octominin-CNPs) had an average diameter and zeta potential of 372.

Nociception is the neural process of encoding noxious stimuli and is typically accompanied by a reflex withdrawal response away from the potentially injurious stimulus. Studies on nociception in cephalopods have so far focused on octopus and squid, with no investigations to our knowledge on cuttlefish. Yet, these are an important species both in scientific and commercial use.

Rationale: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC), also known as stress cardiomyopathy, apical ballooning syndrome, octopus pot cardiomyopathy and broken heart syndrome, is characterized by wall motion abnormalities of the left ventricle.
Patient Concerns: Here, we reported a 73-year-old woman diagnosed with TC induced by epilepsy before 3 months presented to the authors' hospital with generalized tonic-clonic seizure. She was scheduled for intracranial tumor resection to cure the epilepsy.
