Purpose: This study evaluated the impact of phacoemulsification cataract surgery (PE) on anatomical and functional parameters, as well as the regimen and frequency of anti-VEGF injections in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) over a long-term period (up to 3 years).
Material And Methods: The study included 117 patients (117 eyes) diagnosed with nAMD and cataract, graded by LOCS: LOCS I (=56; 47.9%), LOCS II (=57; 48.
Increasing evidence on the adverse health impacts of microplastics (MPs) is available, but their associated risks to the well-being of humans and long-term impacts are poorly understood. An indicator of the remote effects of MPs may be their influence on the rate of aging. To assess the effects of MPs on the aging process, we used accelerated senescence OXYS rats that develop a complex of geriatric diseases.

- A limited number of innovative antibacterial agents are being developed to effectively target critical Gram-negative bacteria resistant to current treatments, with endolysins showing promise due to their unique action against these pathogens.
- The study uses a multidisciplinary approach including genetic engineering, structural analysis, and various formulations of the engineered endolysin LysECD7-SMAP, which are tested for effectiveness in preclinical models of infections such as sepsis and pneumonia.
- Results indicate that LysECD7-SMAP is effective against multiple drug-resistant bacteria, and in vivo studies confirm the efficacy of its formulated dosage forms, along with insights into how it interacts with bacterial cell walls.
Unlabelled: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune-inflammatory and neurodegenerative disease.
Purpose: This study explores the main structural changes in patients with MS and their relationships with the activity and type of disease course.
Material And Methods: This prospective study included 159 patients (318 eyes) with an established diagnosis of MS: group (44 eyes; 13.

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can serve as reliable markers in genetic engineering, selection, screening examinations, and other fields of science, medicine, and manufacturing. Whole-genome sequencing and genotyping by sequencing can detect SNPs with high specificity and identify novel variants. Nonetheless, in situations where the interest of researchers is individual specific loci, these methods become redundant, and their cost, the proportion of false positive and false negative results, and labor costs for sample preparation and analysis do not justify their use.
