Three techniques for guidewire-assisted sulcus glaucoma tube shunt placement.

Purpose: Tube shunts can be inserted into the anterior chamber, ciliary sulcus, or pars plana. Sulcus tube placement can be challenging. This report demonstrates three techniques for guidewire-assisted sulcus tube insertion.

variants in are associated with hearing impairment, ocular pathology, and cardiac defects.

Phospholipase C isozymes (PLCs) hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate into inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol, important signaling molecules involved in many cellular processes. encodes the PLCγ1 isozyme that is broadly expressed. Hyperactive somatic mutations of are observed in multiple cancers, but only one germline variant has been reported.

Long-Term Outcomes and Characteristics Associated With Mortality of Adult Patients Post Fontan Surgery: 27-Year Single-Center Experience.

Data on the characteristics and long-term outcomes of patients who underwent Fontan surgery and surviving into adulthood are limited. We aimed to describe our center's long-term experience with this unique patient population. Included were adult patients who had undergone Fontan surgery and were followed up at our Adult Congenital Heart Disease clinic between the years 1994 and 2021.

Intraocular Pressure and Eyedrop Usage Reduction with Intracameral Bimatoprost Implant.

Sustained intraocular drug delivery devices are being developed to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) and improve adherence in patients with glaucoma. The purpose of this study was to assess the IOP and eyedrop usage reduction effects of intracameral bimatoprost implants. We retrospectively reviewed the records of 46 eyes from 38 patients who received an intracameral implant containing 10 μg of bimatoprost as a replacement or addition to their existing eyedrop regimen and investigated IOP, eyedrop usage, and adverse effects.
