Objective:
The objective of this study is to know the risk of eye infection from swimming with contact lens on.
Justification:
Although the risks that are associated with extensive wearing of contact lenses are well known, there has not been a sufficient explanation of the cause of swimming with contact lens on increases the risk of infection. This research should be studied now because even though the increased risk for serious infection is minimal (about 4 in 10.000), proper care is very important, particularly for patient who uses them for swimming.

Major findings:
. Study 1: The prenatal exposure level was determined from mercury analyses of cord blood which is 22.5 μg/L in average. High level of prenatal exposure to mercury were significantly associated with deficits in motor skills, attention and verbal tests.
. Study 2: Mothers …show more content…
Eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive either gefitinib (at a dose of 250 mg per day orally) or standard chemotherapy. The standard chemotherapy is paclitaxel (at a dose of 200 mg per square meter of body-surface area, given intravenously over a 3-hour period) and carboplatin (at a dose equivalent to an area under the concentration–time curve [AUC] of 6, given intravenously over a 1-hour period), both administered on the first day of every 3 week cycle. Chemotherapy was continued for at least three cycles. Gefitinib was administered until disease progression, development of intolerable toxic effects, or withdrawal of consent. So it contains intervention group and control group. And then we observe for the outcome which is if it has p<0.05 then there is a statistical significance and the EFGR-TKI has positive impact on the mutation
