Background: Following the latest war in 2023, over nine million people have been internally displaced, of which White Nile State received over 50,000. They lived in different camps and moved to big cities. This study assessed the scope of mental and physical concerns among the IDPs to identify important healthcare needs.

Non-coding RNAs have gathered significant attention for their unique roles in biological regulation. Across a broad spectrum of developmental processes and diseases, particularly in human malignancies, ncRNAs play pivotal roles in regulatory mechanisms. MicroRNAs, long noncoding RNAs, and small nucleolar RNAs stand out among the diverse forms of ncRNAs that have been implicated in cancer.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to examine whether using non-orthogonal correction (NOC) lenses could enhance visual acuity and perceived image quality for patients with keratoconus.
  • Researchers tested 18 participants and their 23 eyes opted for NOC lenses, finding that 61% of eyes showed improved best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and many reported better letter clarity and less ghosting.
  • The findings suggest that NOC lenses can be an effective option for correcting irregular astigmatism in keratoconus patients, with strong interest from participants for potential future use in spectacles.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how non-toric ortho-k lens decentration affects higher-order aberrations (HOAs) and astigmatism, utilizing AI to predict the impact.
  • Using a Medmont E300 Video topographer, the research analyzed 249 corneas, examining changes in topography data before and after the lenses were worn.
  • The results indicate significant changes in various aberration terms post-ortho-k, with AI successfully predicting the direction and magnitude of decentration in lenses with accuracies of around 70%.
