Purpose: To evaluate the clinical outcomes after repeat Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) for technical failure (TF) and secondary graft failure (SGF).
Methods: Retrospective analysis of 49 eyes that underwent repeat DMEK either for TF (ie, persistent graft detachment, n = 24) or for SGF (ie, late endothelial graft failure, n = 25). Surgery indications for primary DMEK were Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD, 80%) and bullous keratopathy (BK, 20%).
Background: The aim of this study was to examine whether work capabilities differ between workers with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and workers from the general population. The second aim was to investigate whether the capability set was related to work and health outcomes.
Methods: A total of 163 workers with MS from the MS@Work study and 163 workers from the general population were matched for gender, age, educational level and working hours.
Background: An effective and tolerable bowel preparation is important to secure quality of colonoscopies. It remains unclear if sodium picosulphate with magnesium citrate (SPMC), which is considered a tolerable bowel preparation agent, is also an effective alternative for polyethylene glycol (PEG) and sodium phosphate (NaP).
Aim: The aim of this article is to compare effectiveness of SPMC to PEG and NaP through assessment of quality of bowel cleansing measured by validated tools.
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common cause of neurological disability in young and middle-aged adults. At this stage in life most people are in the midst of their working career. The majority of MS patients are unable to retain employment within 10 years from disease onset.
