	Detecting Preschoolers at Risk for Vision Loss
		In their study, Hunter and colleagues evaluated 77 children, aged two to 18, who were patients at Children's ophthalmology clinic or their siblings.
		All subjects underwent a complete "gold standard" examination by an orthoptist or pediatric ophthalmologist to identify risk factors for amblyopia: 37 children were diagnosed with strabismus, three with anisometropia and 37 had neither condition and served as controls.
		While a number of states have mandated a full eye exam by eye specialists before entry to school, this is too late to treat amblyopia successfully, Hunter says, adding that an early screening eye exam in the pediatrician's office would be less expensive and likely to reach more children than a full eye exam.

		In the late 1960s, Folkman and his colleagues at HMS did experiments showing that it was critical for tumor cells to have a new blood supply, which led them to think that tumor cells were angiogenesis- dependent.
		Bouck's work led the HMS researchers to suspect that tumor cells might be clearing unwanted brake fluid-angiogenic inhibitors-by leaking it through their newly grown blood vessels.
		It was suggested that retreats for HMS clinical faculty that focused on their roles as educators might be a good way to further their professional development.

		As we continued towards the museum we saw a large elongated and rusted Hulk which of course was the U534, she looked a lot bigger than I had expected and did not look in very good shape which is understandable given the amount of time she had been resting on the sea bed.
		The most exciting aspect of the visit for me was the HMS Oynx as I had never been inside a Submarine before and I found it fascinating to walk about this previously restricted naval craft.
		While I was on the decks of HMS Oynx I looked towards the centre of the docks and immediately noticed an old Landing craft Tank LCT, which was moored in the middle of the dock and out of reach.
