MERRY CHRISTMAS, WITH OUR DESIRE FOR A BETTER WORLD AND FULL OF PEACE


The microplasmin is a proteolytic enzyme developed by Trombogenics , and according to clinical studies can facilitate and induce a posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) by enzymatic breakdown of proteins that maintain adhesion between vitreous and retina. Could thus replace, in certain cases, a vitrectomy surgery, and even could have potential applications in the accessions of diabetic macular edema, diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration associated with age.
According to the study conducted by Trombogenics, currently in phase III, the microplasmin is effective to break the adhesions vitreomaculares, improves vision in patients without surgery, can be applied in macular holes, is safe and well tolerated.
pilot study results presented by Professor Peter Stalmans in Congress EURETINA of Paris showing improvement at 6 months of treatment, at least 2 lines in 23.7% of patients treated with microplasmin , and 3 lines at 9.7%.
We recall the editorial of Drs Cervera Diaz-Llopis and in the Journal Archives of the English Society of Ophthalmology in August 2007 titled "posterior vitreous detachment and pharmacological vitreolysis: the new age of vitrectomy enzyme 'esp Arch Ophthalmol Soc V.82 n.8.
In his simple but magnificent exhibition, our colleagues exposed the "universally known and perverse effect of strong vitreo-retinal adhesions": 1) Recurrence of detachment of retina with or without vitreoretinal proliferation. 2) detachment of retina diseases glassy-organized with Stickler syndrome, etc .- 3) Bilateralization of giant tears 4) Persistence and chronicity of macular edema (diabetic, venous occlusion, uveitis, pseudophakic Irvine-Gass syndrome). 5) myopic macular traction syndrome. 6) macular epiretinal membrane 6) Emergence of macular holes and their progression from incomplete to complete. 7) progression of proliferative diabetic retinopathy by vitreous traction of the new vessels. " And then spoke of the "gracious" and "prophylactic effect of having the DPV as soon as possible, and these should have parted ways before a slow, gradual and controlled, but without any risk of lamellar macular hole or complete, or cystoid macular edema.
Even then made reference to various drugs proteoíticos with ability to accelerate vitreous liquefaction, such as dispase, hyaluronidase (VITROS ®) , chondroitinase, tissue plasminogen activator, urokinase, streptokinase, natokinasa (NAT Substilin ®) , collagenase, plasmin and microplasmin (Trombogenic ®) and sentences "If this method gets to develop clinically, ie get off and liquefy the vitreous with a single intravitreal injection can be in a not too distant future to a major paradigm shift from our current conception of vitreous surgery today to have known: the birth of enzymatic vitrectomy .

A new technique of femtosecond laser, CIRI or "Conic Intrastromal Relaxing Incisions "different types can correct astigmatism up to now difficult to correct, according to a study released by Dr. Roberto Zaldivar, scientific director of the Instituto Zaldivar (Mendoza - Argentina) at the annual meeting of the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery ..
In his presentation, Dr. Zaldivar refers to the possible application of the technique to different groups of patients with astigmatism not easy to correct, as patients with dry eye, or after cataract or keratoplasty interventions in Needing a procedure to correct residual refractive errors, as a minimally invasive and effective in correcting small amounts of cylinder and sphere.
All refractive procedures available to date show any side effects. Corneal incisions are characterized by low predictability, epithelial growth potential, or hyperopic changes, the PRK surgery may result in "haze" (clouds), regression and discomfort, and the LASIK may occur with irregular edges cut at the interface epithelial growth, and dry eye in older patients. All these changes may affect the quality of the patient's vision. For this reason, and because most of the complications of refractive surgery can take place on the corneal surface, it is now to develop safe and effective intrastromal procedures, as described by Dr. Zaldivar.
The new advanced technique creates intracorneal incisions without damaging the epithelium, and shows great stability in oblique incisions, less and less dry eye denervation and additionally can add new incisions, does not affect the optical zone and may be combined with other intraocular procedures, including the implantation of phakic lenses (ICL) and pseudophakic (IOLs).
While clinical studies to date show the stability and predictability of their results at 6 months, is now developing new applications nomograms and more cases, in order to determine its effectiveness and predictability long term.

CEUTA EYES. INNOVATION IN OPHTHALMOLOGY.
EYE CENTER DR. CATOIRA MEDIN
PROJECT OFTALMOTECA. "
Recently we have seen with pain as lost two small collections of old books on ophthalmology and missing many of his fellow.
Unfortunately today's homes are small, the furniture is functional, and families often tend to get rid of what bothers them.
come into our lives new technologies such as "electronic books" that can contain text from as many thousands of books inside, and tattered books, old and hands may seem outdated and dilapidated on our shelves.
From here open the project "OFTALMOTECA" , aimed at rescuing the books, documents and / or elements of ophthalmology of oblivion and neglect, and an inevitable loss.
therefore grateful to our readers who want to contribute selflessly to the project, before disposing of them get in touch with us, send us the address of our center in Ceuta (Spain), or our section emails (coming soon), or alternatively, send us your scanned documents to the address given below.
Also, for those who have known or are family of ophthalmologists and optometrists have already disappeared into believing that its history and work deserve to be picked up and remembered, send us the documentation considered appropriate (portraits, photos, publications, merit, references ...) the same addresses.
is our belief that anyone who has helped give life to our eyes and the development of ophthalmology, no one should be forgotten.

In particular, the journal (Nature 239, 327-330 (06 October 1972) doi: 10.1038/239327a0) published a study by MICHAEL Michael Barbetti & McElhinny (Department of Geophysics and Geochemistry, Australian National University , Canberra).

MICHAEL MICHAEL Barbetti & McElhinny and exposed to:
We conducted the first investigation archaeomagnetic Aboriginal settlements in Australia. The evidence of human occupation on the Australian continent dates back to 32000-25000 BC, and the sites are based on human cremation remains, found in the dunes of the former Park Lake Mungo, (now dried up in the Western Region of New South Wales (33.7 º S, 143 º E). These different sites analyzed, have preserved a record of recent geomagnetic reversals.
For 38 years it is known that there was a geomagnetic reversal from 25000-32000, and this event is cyclical and recurrent, depending on the track marks left by different archaeological record.
In particular, a detailed analysis of human civilizations have arisen in our history, suggest that there is a dark period of recession "(involution)" precisely between 32,000 and 10,000 years BC
A recent study by New Scientist of 4 September 2010, confirms once again what 38 years ago MICHAEL MICHAEL Barbetti & McElhinny showed. doi: 10.1016/S0262-4079 (10) 62127-6
identified in the summary:
" The sudden reversal in the Earth's geomagnetic axis, are theoretically impossible, although the evidence shows that there were at least twice in the recent past.
The literature quoted below, is indicative of these events to climate change inevitably suggest a global cosmic origin.

Zecharia Sitchin
died on 9 October. In its internet web page www.sitchin.com can read the following message: "We regret to inform you that Zecharia Sitchin died on the morning of 9 October. The family held a small private funeral the following day.
"The family asks to respect their privacy during this difficult time and refrain from contact with members of the immediate family. Instead, to offer tribute to Mr. Sitchin or to contact those who manage their affairs, please send an email to tributes@sitchin.com or a letter to PO Box 577, New York, NY 10185. "We appreciate the support you have given in recent years. Please keep checking this website for updates. "
Zecharia Sitchin was born in ancient Russia July 11, 1920 and raised in Palestine. He studied at London University and graduated in "Economic History." Although he was promoted to Master and Scholar in Ancient Languages, actually had no such degrees.
According to him in ancient times we were visited by an alien race that gave rise to the Sumerian culture: the Anunnaki, from a planet called Nibiru (the planet Twelfth, as Sitchin calls himself), whose elliptical orbit places it beyond Neptune.
In fact their work was more than poor, as several scientists, historians and archaeologists (see
http://www.skepdic.com/sitchin.html). His translations of ancient Sumerian texts have many errors and all his works can be classified as pseudo-history and pseudoscience.
Among its more outlandish claims which was attributed the creation of human beings to genetic engineering work of the Anunnaki. According to him, the aliens created by Homo sapiens for use as slaves to work their gold mines by crossing extraterrestrial genes with those of Homo erectus.
was also stated that nuclear weapons (the "bad wind", as described in the song "Lament of Ur", written in cuneiform tablets) that destroyed the city of Ur in 2024 BC. Nuclear weapons would be used in a war between alien factions. To learn more about the pseudoscientific ideas Sitchin see:

polar thaw is he still moving?
is a fact
for experts: the melting of the ice due to global warming
. Therefore, it is not a seasonal event, but a
feet per century.
Apparently, this situation is more rapid in West Antarctica (region of South America and Australia). It is known that the total mass of this ice represents 90% worldwide and 70% of freshwater reserves and that the surface continental ice is 14 million square kilometers.
Also, large chunks of ice that broke off in recent years due to global warming. The issue is this:
warming of the polar caps can cause melting of the ice and raising ocean levels, which would generate economic and social consequences are disastrous for the planet. There will be attentive not it?

find a pulse long, the kind that emit a laser, which is just the kind of things we're looking for, "Bhathal said in 2008.
Puzzled by his discovery, the astronomer his inquiry for months around Gliese 581 in search of a repeat of the strange signal, but never again grasp.
The impression caused the space wave caused a paper record the rare find that I leave it to the unknown "is an ET?".
Although it could be a coincidence, this mystery is added to the announcement by researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz and Carnegie Institute of Washington of the discovery of planet Gliese 581g in the constellation Libra.
Months after the strange signal Bhathal, astronomers found orbiting the star Gliese 581 Gliese 581e three planets, Gliese 518c and Gliese 581d, in the vicinity of an area that allows the existence of liquid water.
In September this year, Steven Vogt 581g Gliese discovered a planet that opens the imagination more than that created when the first planets found by turning on the star. Vogt
researcher at the University of Santa Cruz says he believes "one hundred percent" that life exists on Gliese 581g, hence relate this finding with the mysterious signal Ragbir Bhathal.
Gliese 581 g: possible
is Gliese 581 g, a planet is 20 light years from Earth and orbits its star at a proper distance to have liquid water on its surface and sustain life.
not think that this planet is an exact copy of Earth. Called "
Gliese 581 g", the sixth planet from this star is 20 light years from the Sun has a mass that is three times higher than ours, and orbits at a distance Gliese 581 as appropriate to possess lakes or seas. His " year" lasts only 37 days, determined by the speed with which it moves around the sun and the distance that separates him from this. Best of all, it is within the so-called "habitable zone , a region where temperatures caused by sunlight is adequate to sustain life of the type we know here on Earth. addition, the size of the extrasolar planet suggests that it is composed primarily of rock (like Earth), providing a firm surface on which to live. The larger planets, with masses from about ten times the Earth, usually gaseous, so that live in them is, by our standards, quite complicated. Gliese 581 g, to our knowledge, it seems enough to Earth so that one day we can live in it.
airport authorities Bootee, in the Inner Mongolia region of China, ordered the facility shut down for hours to prevent dozens of planes loaded with passengers crashed into a UFO.
Apparently, this is the third unidentified flying object is detected in another Chinese airport, where in July of this year was developed a similar situation. At that time, managers of the Xiaoshan airport where, in the province of Zhejiang, closed for fear that the alleged spacecraft landed, according to the British site The Sun

NASA warned that 2013 could be a general collapse in electric utilities and communications as a result of the upsurge
sun flaresand the level of radiation.
As reported the Daily Mail
, NASA reports indicate that there will be a peak in the cycle of magnetic energy from the sun and the number of sunspots and flares that can cause geomagnetic storms on Earth. The consequences: the electricity could be out of service for hours, days and even months.
The Sun follows an 11-year cycle of high and low periods of solar activity. It is now leaving a notably quiet phase and scientists expect to see a sharp increase in the number of solar flares as well as unprecedented levels of magnetic energy.
The rings of fire, which have the power of 100 hydrogen bombs, could cause twenty times more economic damage than Hurricane Katrina.
Experts met in Washington DC in June to discuss how to protect Earth from the ferocious flares, which are expected sometime around 2013.
But much of the damage could be minimised if it was known in advance that the storm was Approaching. Putting
