Purpose: Accurate alignment of Toric Intraocular Lens (T-IOLs) in cataract surgery is crucial for good visual outcomes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of rotation, axial shift and their combined effects on the refractive error and image quality of a wide range of T-IOL powers (from +1.50 D to +6.

- - The study analyzed 202 patients with head and neck paragangliomas (HN-PGL) across 16 Spanish hospitals, noting that 67.8% of participants were women, with a mean age of 53.1 years and 264 tumors examined, primarily located in the carotid body.
- - Among patients, 20.8% had multiple tumors and 4% had metastatic disease; genetic testing revealed a pathogenic variant in SDHx in half of those tested, which was linked to younger patients and more complex tumor profiles.
- - The results showed that while surgery was the most common treatment, radiotherapy and observation (monitoring without active treatment) were also effective, and long-term survival rates remained high
Titanium trisulfide (TiS) nanoribbons, when coated with titanium dioxide (TiO), can be used for water splitting in the KOH electrolyte. TiO shells can be prepared through thermal annealing to regulate the response of TiS/TiO heterostructures by controlling the oxidation time and growth atmosphere. The thickness and structure of the TiO layers significantly influence the photoelectrocatalytic properties of the TiS/TiO photoanodes, with amorphous layers showing better performance than crystalline ones.

The element incorporates an optical design based on concentric annular regions with slightly different cylindrical axis angular positions. To assess visual quality performance as a function of rotation, retinal image simulation and clinical assessments with an adaptive optics visual simulator were carried out.
