Recurrent Corneal Erosion Induced by 1% 5-Fluorouracil Solution.

Cytotoxic anticancer drug solution eye drops can hinder the cell division of corneal basal cell division and corneal limbal epithelial stem cell migration. We discuss a case involving recurrent corneal epithelial erosions induced by 1% 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) solution eye drops. A 68-year-old male with conjunctival papilloma on his left eye underwent recurrences three times and additional tumor excision.

The feasibility of using the go/no-go task as a dementia screening test assessed with a cross-sectional design.

The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and Frontal Assessment Battery are screening tests for dementia. The go/no-go task offers an alternative approach for evaluating dementia patients. However, its role in screening for dementia remains unclear.

Large-scale observational study of AI-based patient and surgical material verification system in ophthalmology: real-world evaluation in 37 529 cases.

Background: Surgical errors in ophthalmology can have devastating consequences. We developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-based surgical safety system to prevent errors in patient identification, surgical laterality and intraocular lens (IOL) selection. This study aimed to evaluate its effectiveness in real-world ophthalmic surgical settings.

Comparative educational effectiveness of AI generated images and traditional lectures for diagnosing chalazion and sebaceous carcinoma.

Sebaceous carcinoma is difficult to distinguish from chalazion due to their rarity and clinicians' limited experience. This study investigated the potential of AI-generated image training to improve diagnostic skills for these eyelid tumors compared to traditional video lecture-based education. Students from Orthoptics, Optometry, and Vision Research (n = 55) were randomly assigned to either an AI-generated image training group or a traditional video lecture group.

Can the clinical sign "head-turning sign" and simple questions in "Neucop-Q" predict amyloid β pathology?

Background: To establish simple screening tests to suspect Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, the clinical sign "head-turning sign" (HTS), which is a patient's behavior of turning their head towards their partner to seek assistance with questions posed by the examiner during the interview, and the simple screening questionnaire for dementia named "Neucop-Q" were validated in participants diagnosed with amyloid and tau positron emission tomography (PET).

Methods: We enrolled 155 patients: 47 cognitive normal, 36 with mild cognitive impairment, 64 with dementia, and 8 with psychiatric disorders. All participants underwent Neucop-Q [three questions: Consciousness/self-awareness of cognitive disabilities (C) normal/impaired (nor/imp), Pleasure/pastime (P) nor/imp, and News/knowledge on current topics (N) nor/imp] and amyloid/tau PET.
