Good Initial Visual Acuity in Patients with Macular Edema due to Retinal Vein Occlusion - Management and Outcomes.

Purpose: The approach to managing patients with retinal vein occlusion (RVO) and cystoid macular edema (CME) with good initial visual acuity (VA) better than 6/12 has not been investigated. This study aimed to evaluate functional and anatomical outcomes of intravitreal treatment and observation in patients with CME due to RVO, who presented with good initial VA. Methods: Multicenter retrospective cohort study.

Evaluation of blood type as a potential risk factor for hemorrhage during vaginal hysterectomy.

Objective: To examine the association between the O blood type and bleeding tendency in patient undergoing vaginal hysterectomy.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study including all women who had undergone vaginal hysterectomy at our institution between January 2015 and September 2020. All women underwent blood type and complete blood count testing pre- and post-operatively.

A Deep-Learning Approach to Spleen Volume Estimation in Patients with Gaucher Disease.

The enlargement of the liver and spleen (hepatosplenomegaly) is a common manifestation of Gaucher disease (GD). An accurate estimation of the liver and spleen volumes in patients with GD, using imaging tools such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is crucial for the baseline assessment and monitoring of the response to treatment. A commonly used method in clinical practice to estimate the spleen volume is the employment of a formula that uses the measurements of the craniocaudal length, diameter, and thickness of the spleen in MRI.

"From molecular to clinic": The pivotal role of CDC42 in pathophysiology of human papilloma virus related cancers and a correlated sensitivity of afatinib.

Background: Human papilloma virus (HPV)-related cancers are global health challenge. Insufficient comprehension of these cancers has impeded the development of novel therapeutic interventions. Bioinformatics empowered us to investigate these cancers from new entry points.
