Precis: Glaucoma surgery impacts corneal graft survival differently by procedure type, with GDDs being most effective at reducing intraocular pressure. However, graft survival rates are comparable across trabeculectomy, CPC, and GDDs. Trabeculectomy improves visual acuity best but often requires additional interventions.

Objective: The principal aim of this study was to assess the influence of an anti-gravity treadmill (Alter G) training program on both gait characteristics and postural stability indices (PSI) in adult individuals who have recovered from burns.
Design: This study followed a single-blind, randomized, controlled design.
: Venous ulcers are recognized to be more painful and resistant to therapy than ulcers of other etiologies. Various methods have been used for the conservative treatment of venous ulcers, such as pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) and plantar exercise, which promote wound healing due to a range of physiological effects. The study aimed to examine the effect of combined pulsed electromagnetic field therapy and plantar flexion resistance exercise (PRE) on patients with venous leg ulcers (VLUs).
