Endothelial cell loss post-implantable collamer lens V4c: meta-analysis.

Endothelial cell density (ECD) loss is a noted effect of implantable collamer lens (ICL) V4c surgery. Current literature provides a wide range of values for ECD loss postsurgery, which may not be helpful in advising patients and clinicians. A meta-analysis exploring ECD loss in ICL V4c for myopia correction was undertaken.

Role of thrombopoietin receptor agonists in chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia: A meta-analysis.

Introduction: Chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) is a significant challenge in cancer treatment, often leading to dose reductions and reduced number of cycles. The limited effectiveness of platelet transfusions in managing CIT highlights the need for alternative treatments. Thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RA), including romiplostim, eltrombopag and avatrombopag, have shown potential in increasing platelet counts in CIT patients, necessitating a comprehensive analysis of their efficacy.
