To review the best pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic interventions in the management of chronic pain in elderly patients with depression. A systematic review of the literature was performed following the PRISMA guidelines and using PubMed. Articles published from 2010 to 2020 were included in the search.

We analyzed how the moiré pattern evolved varying tilt angles and metal array periodicities placed on the top of RGB light sources, which have their own spatial periodicities. Based on multiplicative model, moiré patterns were numerically generated and the influences of 70 tilt angles and 60 periodicities on the moiré standard deviation were thoroughly analyzed to minimize moiré visibility.
