ONS-5010 (bevacizumab-vikg) Safety and Efficacy in Subfoveal Choroidal Neovascularization Secondary to Age-related Macular Degeneration.

Background And Objective: This was a prospective multicenter, randomized, double-masked, active-controlled study, the aim of which was to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal ONS-5010 (bevacizumab-vikg) in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). This was a phase III trial on ONS-5010 (NORSE TWO).

Materials And Methods: Treatment-naïve nAMD patients aged 50 years and older with a best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCVA) of 25 to 67 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters and evidence of disease activity were included.

Rare Colonic Dieulafoy Lesions: A Case Series.

Dieulafoy lesions (DLs) are infrequent causes of gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) but can cause hemorrhage with a high risk of re-bleeds. They are most noted in the stomach, but this case series of three colonic DLs highlights even more rare causes of lower GIB. Three patients presented with blood loss and were found to have colonic DLs.

Ab Initio Uncertainty Quantification of Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay in ^{76}Ge.

The observation of neutrinoless double-beta (0νββ) decay would offer proof of lepton number violation, demonstrating that neutrinos are Majorana particles, while also helping us understand why there is more matter than antimatter in the Universe. If the decay is driven by the exchange of the three known light neutrinos, a discovery would, in addition, link the observed decay rate to the neutrino mass scale through a theoretical quantity known as the nuclear matrix element (NME). Accurate values of the NMEs for all nuclei considered for use in 0νββ experiments are therefore crucial for designing and interpreting those experiments.

Circularizing PET-G Multimaterials: Life Cycle Assessment and Techno-Economic Analysis.

The recycling of multimaterials such as payment or access cards poses significant challenges. Building on previous experimental work demonstrating the feasibility of chemically recyclable payment cards made from glycol-modified poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET-G), we use life cycle assessment and techno-economic analysis to investigate two chemical recycling scenarios and evaluate their potential environmental and economic benefits. Recovering all components from the depolymerized products (Scenario 1) achieves substantial environmental benefits across most categories, reducing global warming by up to 67% compared to only recovering major components (Scenario 2).

The effects of age and biological sex on the association between I-wave recruitment and the response to cTBS: An exploratory study.

The neuroplastic response to continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) is inherently variable. The measurement of I-wave latencies has been shown to strongly predict the magnitude and direction of the response to cTBS, whereby longer latencies are associated with stronger long-term depression-like responses. However, potential differences in this association relating to age and sex have not been explored.
