This review analyzes the primary etiological factors of diffuse lamellar keratitis following various laser corneal refractive surgery techniques. The use of advanced diagnostic methods such as optical coherence tomography, confocal microscopy, and immunohistochemical methods has allowed for the identification of the main pathogenetic mechanisms underlying this condition, which will help improve the prevention, as well as assist with the development of optimal treatment strategies for this complication.

However, the low diffusion barrier of molecular hydrogen within the h-BN structure does not fully explain the long-term stability of hydrogen bubbles observed in experimental work [L. He, H.

In the present work, the HfCO/MoS heterostructure under biaxial strain, interlayer coupling, and an electric field was investigated by first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. We have shown that the influence of lateral deformation as well as the perpendicular external electric field is more significant compared to the influence of external vertical pressure on changes in the heterojunction type of heterostructure.

Harms, or Ming aralia, is a medicinal plant of the Araliaceae family, which is highly valued for its antitoxic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antibacterial, anti-asthmatic, adaptogenic, and other properties. The plant can be potentially used to treat diabetes and its complications, ischemic brain damage, and Parkinson's disease.
