Turpin A, Myers JS, McKendrick AM.
PMID: 27190698
Transl Vis Sci Technol. 2016 May 09;5(3):3. doi: 10.1167/tvst.5.3.3. eCollection 2016 May.

PURPOSE: We develop a methodology for designing perimetric screening procedures, using Octopus perimeters as a case study.METHODS: The process has three stages: analytically determining specificity and number of presentations required for different multisampling suprathreshold schemes at a single location...

Jadhav AB, Tadinada A, Rengasamy K, Fellows D, Lurie AG.
PMID: 24944968
Imaging Sci Dent. 2014 Jun;44(2):165-9. doi: 10.5624/isd.2014.44.2.165. Epub 2014 Jun 11.

An osteolytic lesion with a small central area of mineralization and sclerotic borders was discovered incidentally in the clivus on the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) of a 27-year-old male patient. This benign appearance indicated a primary differential diagnosis of...

Incorporating Spatial Models in Visual Field Test Procedures.

Translational vision science & technology

Rubinstein NJ, McKendrick AM, Turpin A.
PMID: 26981329
Transl Vis Sci Technol. 2016 Mar 11;5(2):7. doi: 10.1167/tvst.5.2.7. eCollection 2016 Mar.

PURPOSE: To introduce a perimetric algorithm (Spatially Weighted Likelihoods in Zippy Estimation by Sequential Testing [ZEST] [SWeLZ]) that uses spatial information on every presentation to alter visual field (VF) estimates, to reduce test times without affecting output precision and...

Measurement of Retinal Sensitivity on Tablet Devices in Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

Translational vision science & technology

Wu Z, Guymer RH, Jung CJ, Goh JK, Ayton LN, Luu CD, Lawson DJ, Turpin A, McKendrick AM.
PMID: 26175959
Transl Vis Sci Technol. 2015 Jun 30;4(3):13. doi: 10.1167/tvst.4.3.13. eCollection 2015 Jun.

PURPOSE: We compared measurements of central retinal sensitivity on a portable, low-cost tablet device to the established method of microperimetry in age-related macular degeneration (AMD).METHODS: A customized test designed to measure central retinal sensitivity (within the central 1° radius)...

Blue-detuned optical ring trap for Bose-Einstein condensates based on conical refraction.

Optics express

Turpin A, Polo J, Loiko YV, Küber J, Schmaltz F, Kalkandjiev TK, Ahufinger V, Birkl G, Mompart J.
PMID: 25835921
Opt Express. 2015 Jan 26;23(2):1638-50. doi: 10.1364/OE.23.001638.

We present a novel approach for the optical manipulation of neutral atoms in annular light structures produced by the phenomenon of conical refraction occurring in biaxial optical crystals. For a beam focused to a plane behind the crystal, the...

Moderate intensity adjusted-dose warfarin was more effective than low-intensity fixed dose warfarin and aspirin in preventing strokes in atrial fibrillation.

XALIA: rationale and design of a non-interventional study of rivaroxaban compared with standard therapy for initial and long-term anticoagulation in deep vein thrombosis.

Thrombosis journal

Ageno W, Mantovani LG, Haas S, Kreutz R, Haupt V, Schneider J, Turpie AG.
PMID: 25093014
Thromb J. 2014 Jul 14;12:16. doi: 10.1186/1477-9560-12-16. eCollection 2014.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), comprising deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism, poses a substantial clinical risk, and the incidence of these thrombotic-related diseases remains high. Anticoagulation aims to prevent thrombus extension and reduce the risk of recurrent events, particularly...

Low-molecular-weight heparin: from the bench to the orthopedic patient.

Orthopedics

Turpie AG.
PMID: 24826689
Orthopedics. 1997 Feb;20:10-3. doi: 10.3928/0147-7447-19970202-06.

ABSTRACTStandard heparin is widely used for the prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism; however, it has several limitations including variable dose response, dose-dependent clearance and inhibition of platelet function. To overcome these disadvantages, standard heparin, which is composed of...

The Value of Admission Clinical Data for Diagnosing Heart Failure in Long-term Care.

Canadian geriatrics journal : CGJ

Heckman GA, Foebel AD, Dubin JA, Ng J, Turpie ID, Hussack P, McKelvie RS.
PMID: 24278092
