The retina is the tissue layer located in the back of your eye. This layer transforms light into nerve signals that are then sent to the brain for interpretation.
When your blood pressure is too high, the retina’s blood vessel walls may thicken. This may cause your blood vessels to become narrow, which then restricts blood from reaching the retina. In some cases, the retina becomes swollen.
Over time, high blood pressure can cause damage to th

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

7. Usually Asymptomatic
Clinical situations are classified into
. Hypertension with involuntary (senile) sclerosis
- Old age (>50 years)
- Augmented arteriosclerotic retinopathy
. Chronic Hypertension with compensatory arteriolar sclerosis
-Young patients with prolonged HTN & associated with
benign Nephrosclerosis
-Proliferative and fibrous changes of media and results in
chronic glomerulonephritis
-Advanced fundus changes – Albuminuric or Renal retinopathy.
8. Generalized arterial narrowing
- Vasoconstrictive change
Diffuse vasospasm Increase in BP Increase in renal
arteriolar tone
- Sclerotic change
Intimal thickening Hypoplasia of Hyaline
tunica media degeneration
9. Focal arteriolar thickening
- Localized vasoconstriction on the disc
- Within ½ disc diameter of its margin zone
Arteriovenous Nicking
- Arterioles crosses and compresses the vein
- Salu’s sign – Deflection of veins at the AV crossings
- Bonnet’s sign – Banking of veins distal to AV crossings
- Gunn sign – Tapering of veins on either side of the crossings
10. Arteriolar reflex changes
. Bright and thin, linear blood reflex – Normal
. More diffuse and less bright reflex – Grade I & Grade II
. Copper wiring – Grade III
. Silver wiring – Grade IV
11. Superficial Retinal haemorrhage ( Flame shaped)
- seen on Posterior pole due to disruption of the capillaries in the retinal nerve
fibre layer
Hard exudates
- Lipid exudates in the outer plexiform layer of retina due to leaky capillaries
in severe HTN retinopathy.
-Yellow waxy spot with sharp margins
Cotton Wool spots
- Fluffy white lesions due to areas of infarct in nerve fibre layer
12.
13. Rapid progression to a serious degree in patients with relatively young
arterioles undefended by fibrosis, and associated with renal insuffciency
- Generalized oedema clouds the retina particularly accentuated at the
disc
-Multiple cotton wool patches
-Hard exudates are profuse and form large masses among which a
macular star is often prominent.
- Vision is seriously affected
-Prognosis is grave unless HTN is controlled

vein concealment
GRADE II

GRADE III
GRADE II + Copper wiring of arterioles, cotton wool spots
hard exudates & flame-shaped haemorrhages
Bonnet’s sign
Gunn’s sign
Salu’s sign
GRADE IV GRADE III + Silver wiring of arterioles & Pappiloedema

20. GRADE TREATMENT
MILD HYPERTENSIVE RETINOPATHY Blood Pressure control
MODERATE HYPERTENSIVE RETINOPATHY
(With Retinal Haemorrhages, microaneurysms
& Cotton wool spots)
Blood Pressure + Cholesterol management
(assess CV risk factors)
ACCELERATED HYPERTENSIVE
RETINOPATHY
(Bilateral disc swelling)
Small step wise control of BP
(sudden lowering can result in Stroke)
21. Retinal changes
BP > 160/100 mm of Hg
>200/130 mm of Hg – Marked
. Narrowing of nasal arterioles
. Severe persistent spasm of vessels
. Retinal oedema & exudation
. Retinal detachment is a complication
. Good Prognosis for reattachment
22. Changes are reversible and disappear after the delivery unless Organic
vascular disease is established
Pre organic stage – Conservative treatment
