Topographical and functional analysis of different surgical strategies for advanced pellucid marginal degeneration: A long term follow-up.

Purpose: To compare clinical and topographical outcomes of three different surgical strategies for advanced pellucid marginal degeneration (PMD).

Methods: Retrospective, interventional case series of 8 advanced PMDs undergoing three different surgical interventions: Sliding Keratoplasty (SK), Sliding Keratoplasty with Relaxing Incision (SKRI), Sector Lamellar Keratoplasty (SLK). Pre-operatively and at 1, 3, 6, 12-month and final follow-up (50.

Evaluation of research co-design in health: a systematic overview of reviews and development of a framework.

Background: Co-design with consumers and healthcare professionals is widely used in applied health research. While this approach appears to be ethically the right thing to do, a rigorous evaluation of its process and impact is frequently missing. Evaluation of research co-design is important to identify areas of improvement in the methods and processes, as well as to determine whether research co-design leads to better outcomes.

Developing a shared language: a proposed guide to frame early implementation science collaboration discussions.

Miscommunication between health care practitioners and implementation researchers can lead to a mismatch of expectations and understandings, resulting in wasted research and frustration. Conversely, combining the expertise and knowledge of those working in health care practice and implementation research can deliver context informed research questions and appropriate study designs. Achieving this ambition requires a shared language.
