Colorectal cancer patients' outcome in correlation with dietary and nutritional status: a systematic review.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide and it involves various biomolecular and cellular levels. CRC has possibly happened due to aging, urbanization, and diet. Different foods have varying effects on the gastrointestinal cells, that's why additional research is necessary to create effective medical interventions.

Bevacizumab side effects and adverse clinical complications in colorectal cancer patients: review article.

Unlabelled: This review aimed to evaluate the effect of bevacizumab on adverse events and the quality of life (QoL) from colorectal cancer (CRC) patient.

Methods: A literature search was conducted from PUBMED, MEDLINE databases and some valid literatures from another databases that published in the last 10 years, and the design is an observational and randomized controlled trial (RCT).

Results: CRC is a malignancy, which happens in the colon or rectum.

Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Changes after Intraocular Silicone Oil Tamponade in Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment.

Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) is a serious and emergency condition that may cause visual disturbance. Treatment includes pars plana vitrectomy with a tamponade such as intraocular gas or silicone oil (SO). In many countries, silicone oil is still favorable compared to intraocular gases as tamponade for reattachment of retinal detachment surgery.

Human Ocular Thelaziasis: A Case Report from Indonesia.

Thelaziasis is a parasitic disease caused by a nematode of genus , which is rare in the world, including Indonesia. The definitive hosts for are canids, felids, mustelids, and other mammals, while the vector is drosophila flies. Consequently, this study reported an uncommon occurrence of human ocular thelaziasis in Indonesia.

Effect of retinol and α-tocopherol supplementation on photoreceptor and retinal ganglion cell apoptosis in diabetic rats model.

Background: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common microvascular complication of diabetes. Retinol and α-tocopherol of diabetic models prevent the damage of photoreceptor and retinal ganglion cells (RGC) caused by hyperglycemia.

Objective: This study aims to examine the effect of retinol and α-tocopherol on photoreceptor and RGC densities and the expression of caspase-3 and -7 on the retinal layers of the diabetic rat model.

Choroidal Thickness in Correlation with Axial Length and Myopia Degree.

Background: Myopia is a condition in which the visual images come to a focus in front of the retina of the eye. This disease is a major cause of visual disability, which presents in 108 million persons globally. Purpose: This study aims to determine the relationship between the degree of myopia, the axial length, and the choroidal thickness (CT).

Comparison between Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Levels in Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment.

Introduction: This study aimed to assess vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) levels within vitreous and blood serum samples of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and their relationship to the development of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR).

Methods: Seventeen eyes of patients with RRD were included in the RRD group and divided into three subgroups: RRD without PVR, RRD with PVR grades A and B, and RRD with PVR grade C. Five control eyes (nucleus and intraocular lens drop) were included in this study.

Posterior Approach in Management of Phacomorphic Angle Closure.

This article presents a case of posterior lensectomy through 3-port pars plana vitrectomy for the management of phacomorphic angle closure. A 67-year-old man presented to the outpatient department with headache and decreased vision in his left eye for the past 3 days. Visual acuity 2/60, intraocular pressure (IOP) >60 mm Hg, and the anterior chamber (AC) depth Van Herick grade 1.
