Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on refractive changes observed in children aged 5 years who underwent cataract surgery with intraocular lens placement before age 2.
  • It analyzed data from 96 children, comparing results between unilateral and bilateral cataract cases, as well as those operated on at different ages (1 to <7 months vs. 7-24 months).
  • The findings indicated that children operated on between 1 to <7 months experienced significantly more refractive change compared to those operated on later, suggesting careful consideration is needed when selecting lens power and target refraction for younger patients.

Article Synopsis
  • - Two specific strains (SCP14 and SCP15) were extracted from coral remains in Singapore, particularly in high-temperature conditions.
  • - The genomes of these strains were sequenced, which means their genetic makeup was analyzed and recorded.
  • - The genetic information revealed important elements that contribute to the health of coral, especially when they face temperature-related stress.

Background: Physical activity and sedentary time are independently associated with health and developmental outcomes in preschool children. However, the integrated nature of these behaviours on early life outcomes, particularly during childcare hours, is currently understudied. As such, the aim of this study was to examine the association between preschool children's physical activity and sedentary time during childcare and various developmental outcomes (psychosocial, cognitive and fundamental movement skills).

Background: Various studies have highlighted the increased incidence and symptoms of depression and anxiety in paediatric cancer survivors (PCS). Yet no meta-analysis has focused on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) in PCS and their family nucleus.

Aims: To evaluate the overall risk of PTSD and severity of PTSS in PCS and their family nucleus.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are standard therapy for unresectable HCC, but many patients do not respond. Non-viral HCC, particularly non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), have been implicated in ICI resistance.

Methods: We reviewed 288 patients with unresectable HCC who received ICI from 1/2017 to 12/2021.
