  • Vision Therapy and Post-Concussion Syndrome Management: a Case Report Elizabeth Murray OD, Katie Connolly OD
    Vision Therapy and Post-Concussion Syndrome Management: A Case Report Elizabeth Murray OD, Katie Connolly OD Abstract: Current therapy for post-concussion syndrome with visual symptoms are to rest and decrease visual demand. This case looks at vision therapy for first line treatment when decreasing visual demand is not ideal. I. Case History On 5/30/2017, a 37 year old white male presented for persistent visual symptoms following a traumatic brain injury to the occipital lobe with torsion on the brain stem. The injury occurred on 4/3/2017 from a motor vehicle accident, and he had since been cleared from cognitive rest. At the time of the accident, he reported no loss of consciousness but did have post traumatic amnesia. Initially, he reported feeling fine, but his symptoms progressively worsened. He denied blur and diplopia, but was symptomatic for significant cognitive fatigue, gaze instability, visual stimuli triggered headaches, photophobia, and noise sensitivity. He is a pediatric oncologist with significant visual and cognitive demanding duties that exacerbate his symptoms. Ocular and medical history were unremarkable prior to the accident. At the time, he was taking Fioricet and Amitriptyline as directed for headaches and to aid in sleep, respectively. He had been seeing a Chiropractor for vestibular therapy that included some oculomotor therapy and planned to begin cognitive therapy at an outpatient rehabilitation hospital. II. Pertinent findings Entering distance visual acuities were 20/20 OD, OS and OU and near visual acuities were 20/20 OD, 20/25-1 OS, and 20/15-1 OU, without correction. Pupils and extraocular muscles were unremarkable.

  • Mapping the Past, Present and Future Research Landscape of Paternal Effects Joanna Rutkowska1,2* , Malgorzata Lagisz2 , Russell Bonduriansky2 and Shinichi Nakagawa2
    Rutkowska et al. BMC Biology (2020) 18:183 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12915-020-00892-3 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Mapping the past, present and future research landscape of paternal effects Joanna Rutkowska1,2* , Malgorzata Lagisz2 , Russell Bonduriansky2 and Shinichi Nakagawa2 Abstract Background: Although in all sexually reproducing organisms an individual has a mother and a father, non-genetic inheritance has been predominantly studied in mothers. Paternal effects have been far less frequently studied, until recently. In the last 5 years, research on environmentally induced paternal effects has grown rapidly in the number of publications and diversity of topics. Here, we provide an overview of this field using synthesis of evidence (systematic map) and influence (bibliometric analyses). Results: We find that motivations for studies into paternal effects are diverse. For example, from the ecological and evolutionary perspective, paternal effects are of interest as facilitators of response to environmental change and mediators of extended heredity. Medical researchers track how paternal pre-fertilization exposures to factors, such as diet or trauma, influence offspring health. Toxicologists look at the effects of toxins. We compare how these three research guilds design experiments in relation to objects of their studies: fathers, mothers and offspring. We highlight examples of research gaps, which, in turn, lead to future avenues of research. Conclusions: The literature on paternal effects is large and disparate. Our study helps in

Materials and methods: In the process of the study, for the diagnostics of alexithymia, we used the 26-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-26) developed by G.J. Taylor and a block of psycho-diagnostic methods aimed at the diagnostics of properties of the nervous systems, the emotional sphere and mental states of respondents. The relationships were evaluated using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Results: The main factors related to alexithymia were weak nervous system, low stress resistance and such characteristics of the emotional sphere as marked extraversion, high level of trait anxiety, neuroticism, indirect verbal aggression, low levels of aggressiveness. The emotional exhaustion and reduction of personal achievements, the Resistance Phase, chronic fatigue and depression were the most pronounced within the alexithymia group.

Up to twenty distinguished and ‘fast-track’ Fellows reside at the IAS in any academic year. They are world-class scholars who come to Durham to participate in a variety of events around a core inter-disciplinary theme, which changes from year to year. Each theme inspires a new series of Insights, and these are listed in the inside back cover of each issue. These short papers take the form of thought experiments, summaries of research findings, theoretical statements, original reviews, and occasionally more fully worked treatises. Every fellow who visits the IAS is asked to write for this series. The Directors of the IAS – Veronica Strang, Stuart Elden, Barbara Graziosi and Martin Ward – also invite submissions from others involved in the themes, events and activities of the IAS. Insights is edited for the IAS by Barbara Graziosi. Previous editors of Insights were Professor Susan Smith (2006–2009) and Professor Michael O’Neill (2009–2012). About the Institute of Advanced Study The Institute of Advanced Study, launched in October 2006 to commemorate Durham University’s 175th Anniversary, is a flagship project reaffirming the value of ideas and the public role of universities.
