    Description

    To investigate the GABAergic and glutamatergic systems and neural specificity in the visual cortex of glaucoma patients, the research team recruited 40 patients with glaucoma (14 with early glaucoma and 16 with advanced glaucoma) and 24 age-matched healthy subjects to undergo clinical ophthalmic exams and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with fixation tasks. Researchers obtained the following data: Structural...

    Description

    These data contain information on chemicals released in to the air from burn pits in Iraq (waste disposal areas for US military bases) and the 2023 Ohio train derailment in East Palestine. The goals of the study were to 1) predict the effects of exposure to these chemicals on the ocular surface and 2) to call attention to the relationship between environmental events and long-term damage to the surface...
