  2. Serpiginous choroiditis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serpiginous_choroiditis

    Serpiginous choroiditis, also known as geographic helicoid peripapillary choroidopathy (GHPC), is a rare, chronic, progressive, and recurrent bilateral inflammatory disease involving the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), the choriocapillaries, and the choroid. [1] It affects adult men and women equally in the second to seventh decades of life. [2]

    Serpiginous choroiditis, also known as geographic or helicoid choroidopathy, is an uncommon chronic progressive inflammatory condition affecting adult men and women equally in the second to seventh decades of life.

    Punctate inner choroiditis (PIC) is an inflammatory choroiditis which occurs mainly in young women. Symptoms include blurred vision and scotomata.Yellow lesions are mainly present in the posterior pole and are between 100 and 300 micrometres in size.

    Uveitis with poliosis of the eyelashes. The disease is characterised by bilateral diffuse uveitis, with pain, redness and blurring of vision.The eye symptoms may be accompanied by a varying constellation of systemic symptoms, such as auditory (tinnitus, [6] vertigo, [6] and hypoacusis), neurological (meningismus, with malaise, fever, headache, nausea, abdominal pain, stiffness of the neck and ...

  6. Helicoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicoid

    A helicoid with α = 1, −1 ≤ ρ ≤ 1 and − π ≤ θ ≤ π. The helicoid , also known as helical surface , is a smooth surface embedded in three-dimensional space . It is the surface traced by an infinite line that is simultaneously being rotated and lifted along its fixed axis of rotation.

  7. Disjunct distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disjunct_distribution

    Range of the snail Elona quimperiana, an example of a disjunct distribution. In biology, a taxon with a disjunct distribution is one that has two or more groups that are related but considerably separated from each other geographically. The causes are varied and might demonstrate either the expansion or contraction of a species' range. [1]

  8. Associate family - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associate_family

    Some examples of associate surface families are: the catenoid and helicoid family, the Schwarz P, Schwarz D and gyroid family, and the Scherk's first and second surface family. The Enneper surface is conjugate to itself: it is left invariant as θ changes.

  9. Generalized helicoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_helicoid

    generalized helicoid: meridian is a parabola. In geometry, a generalized helicoid is a surface in Euclidean space generated by rotating and simultaneously displacing a curve, the profile curve, along a line, its axis. Any point of the given curve is the starting point of a circular helix.
