    The Effect of Menopause on the Sexual Dimorphism in the Human Retina – Texture Analysis of Optical Coherence Tomography Data

    Sexual dimorphism in the human retina has recently been connected to gonadal hormones. In the study herein presented, texture analysis was applied to computed mean value fundus (MVF) images from optical cohere...

    Characterization of the Retinal Changes of the 3xTg-AD Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s Disease

    In this work, we imaged the retina of wild-type and triple-transgenic mice model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) (3xTg-AD), at the ages of one and two months, by optical coherence tomography. Texture analysis of c...

    Sexual Dimorphism of the Adult Human Retina Assessed by Optical Coherence Tomography

    In this work, we imaged the retina of healthy age-matched female and male subjects with optical coherence tomography to assess the existence of localised sex-related differences in the retina. Texture analysi...

    General Relativity As an Attractor to Scalar-Tensor Gravity Theories

    We investigate the conditions under which general scalar-tensor gravity theories relax towards General Relativity. We extend the work of Damour and Nordtvedt [2] by studying the effects of the inclusion of a c...

    Invariant Tori and Cylinders for a Class of Perturbed Hamiltonian Systems

    We start with a relativistic model of the Kepler Problem, which is an isoenergetically non-degenerate central force problem in 2 dimensions. Then we prove the persistence of invariant cylinders and tori for a ...
