Science maps to outline emerging topics in strabismus
Science maps show the current status of research in a specific field – a form of scientometrics. Co-word analysis is an example of graphic modelling in which keywords are used to study the conceptual structure of a research field. In...
Optic nerve head perfusion response to reduced blood pressure and increased intraocular pressure
The purpose of this prospective study was to test the hypothesis that blood flow autoregulation in the optic nerve head has less reserve to maintain normal blood flow where there is a blood pressure induced decrease in ocular perfusion pressure...
