Collodion baby is a rare congenital condition marked by a parchment-like membrane covering the body, often leading to complications such as bilateral ectropion. This condition poses risks of exposure keratopathy and other ocular issues. We present a case series of five infants with congenital bilateral ectropion associated with collodion babies, all born prematurely.

Material And Methods: This was a hospital-based study conducted in a tertiary care center in the Department of Ophthalmology from January 2018 to December 2022. All referred and newly diagnosed cases of RB coming to the outpatient department were included in the study after obtaining written informed consent from parents or guardians.
Article Synopsis
- The incidence of dengue fever has surged globally, with an increase in associated ocular manifestations previously thought to be rare.
- The study focuses on 15 patients from a 2022 dengue epidemic in eastern India, all experiencing vision loss related to various ocular conditions linked to the virus.
- Key findings indicate that while some patients recovered vision, those with severe conditions like panophthalmitis had no salvageable sight, highlighting the need for routine eye examinations in dengue cases.
Doping, or incremental substitution of one element for another, is an effective way to tailor a compound's structure as well as its physical and chemical properties. Herein, we replaced up to 30% of Ni with Co in members of the family of layered LiNiB compounds, stabilizing the high-temperature polymorph of LiNiB while the room-temperature polymorph does not form. By studying this layered boride with in situ high-temperature powder diffraction, we obtained a distorted variant of LiNiCoB featuring a perfect interlayer placement of [NiCoB] layers on top of each other─a structural motif not seen before in other borides.

TLS is usually associated with high-grade haematological malignancies and rarely with solid tumours. TLS can be therapy induced or might occur spontaneously.
