METHODS: A total of 302 patients(455 eyes) were included in this study from November 2014 to May 2015. Patient ages ranged from 5 to 89 y(mean±SD: 61.0±17.7 y). Different cross-sectional images of the lens were collected to compare and analyze the image characteristics and anterior segment parameters using 25 MHz and 50 MHz UBM in axial and longitudinal scanning modes, respectively. SPSS 19.0 for Windows, paired t-tests and B&A plot analysis were used for data analysis, and a value of P〈0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: The 25 MHz UBM images displayed the lens shape more clearly than 50 MHz UBM images. Particularly for cataracts, the whole opacity of the lens was shown by 25 MHz UBM, but 50 MHz UBM only showed part of the lens. The means of the anterior segment parameters obtained using 25 MHz and 50 MHz UBM were as follows: central corneal thickness: 0.55±0.03 and 0.51±0.04 mm, respectively; central anterior chamber depth: 2.48±0.54 and 2.56±0.56 mm, respectively; and central lens thickness: 4.26±0.62 and 4.15±0.56 mm, respectively. A statistically significant difference was found between the results obtained with 25 MHz UBM and those obtained with 50 MHz UBM. The two devices had a good agreement in measuring the anterior segment parameters. CONCLUSION: The 25 MHz UBM had an obvious advantage in showing the lens shape. It can provide reliable imaging of the lens and its related diseases and has a high application value for ophthalmology.展开更多

During observation sessions in 2011- 2017, we collected data on 71 pulsars at a frequency of 111 MHz using a digital pulsar receiver. We have discovered Giant Radio Pulses (GRPs) from pulsars B0301+09 and B 1237+25, and confirmed earlier reported generation of anomalously strong (probable giant) pulses from B 1133+16 in a statistically significant dataset. Data for these pulsars and from B0950+08 and B 1112+50, earlier reported as pulsars generating GRPs, were analyzed to evaluate their behavior over long time intervals. It was found that the statistical criterion (power-law spectrum of GRP distribution of energy and peak flux density) seems not to be strict for pulsars with a low magnetic field at their light cylinder. Moreover, spectra of some of these pulsars demonstrate unstable behavior with time and have a complex multicomponent shape. In the dataset for B0950+08, we have detected the strongest GRP from a pulsar with a low magnetic field at its light cylinder ever reported, having a peak flux density as strong as 16.8 kJy.展开更多
