“…Conclusions: The above patterns of myopia induction and recovery validate this negative RGP-CL model as an alternative to traditional spectacle lens models for guinea pigs. The defocus-driven, sign-dependent changes in the expression of the Bmp2 gene in guinea pig RPE are consistent with observations in chicks and demonstrate the important role of BMP2 in eye growth regulation.…”

“…Routine blood tests were within the normal range.We increased quetiapine XR 300 mg and venlafaxine 300 mg,which she had already taken;discontinued her aripiprazole treatment and added LTG 25 mg/d. 8 after initiation of LTG,there was a decrease in white blood coun(WBC) from a baseline level of 5.18x10(9)/L to 3x10(9)/L,while neutrophil count decreased from 3.8x10(9)/L to 1.15x10(9)/L in 12 days.Her medical records showed no sign of leucopenia.No pathology was detected in the peripheral smear or ultrasonography performed with the haematology consultation.Considering leucopenia might be an adverse drug reaction associated with LTG, we discontinued LTG treatment on the 9th day of administration. 9 days after discontinuation WBC was up to 4.22x10(9)/L,neutrophil count was 2.78x10(9)/L. …”
