Neural plasticity in adults with amblyopia.

Amblyopia is a neuronal abnormality of vision that is often considered irreversible in adults. We found strong and significant improvement of Vernier acuity in human adults with naturally occurring amblyopia following practice. Learning was strongest at the trained orientation and did not transfer to an untrained task (detection), but it did transfer partially to the untrained eye (primarily at the trained orientation). We conclude that this perceptual learning reflects alterations in early neural processes that are localized beyond the site of convergence of the two eyes. Our results suggest a significant degree of plasticity in the visual system of adults with amblyopia.

Indications for treatment in adults with tricuspid valve dysfunction due to a congential cardiac anomaly

The tricuspid valve is frequently affected in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD). Disease of this valve can occur primarily or develop secondary to changes in the right ventricle caused by other defects. Quantitative echocardiographic assessment of tricuspid regurgitation is essential to assess its cause and prognosis. Treatment options vary depending on the underlying defect and right ventricular function. Surgical management of tricuspid valve disease is complex and evolving.
