Extensive versus limited pterygium excision with conjunctival autograft: outcomes and recurrence rates.

abstract：PURPOSE:Alternative splicing of the last exon (exon 8) of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pre-mRNA is a key element in the balance of pro- and anti-angiogenic VEGF isoforms in exudative age-related macular degeneration (exAMD) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Three splicing factors, SRp40, ASF/SF...
