Predictors of pain during phacoemulsification under local sedation: A multicentric study.

Purpose: To assess the risk factors for pain during cataract surgery under local anesthesia.

Methods: This multicentric observational study assessed risk factors for pain during cataract surgery from June to November 2020 in a private clinic and two university hospitals (France). Adults who underwent cataract surgery under local anesthesia with conscious sedation were consecutively included.

Next-Generation Sequencing Identifies Novel Variants in Patients with Late-Onset Dominant Optic Atrophy.

Dominant Optic Atrophy (DOA) is one of the most common inherited mitochondrial diseases, leading to blindness. It is caused by the chronic degeneration of the retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons forming the optic nerve. Until now, DOA has been mainly associated with genes encoding proteins involved in mitochondrial network dynamics.

The origins of catatonia - Systematic review of historical texts between 1800 and 1900.

Since January 1st 2022, catatonia is (again) recognized as an independent diagnostic entity in the 11th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11). This is a relevant time to systematically review how the concept of catatonia has evolved within the 19th century and how this concept changed under the influence of a wide variety of events in the history of psychiatry. Here, we systematically reviewed historical and modern German and English texts focusing on catatonic phenomena, published from 1800 to 1900.

Efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for reducing consumption in patients with alcohol use disorders (ALCOSTIM): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

Background: The number of people with an alcohol use disorder (AUD) was recently estimated to be 63.5 million worldwide. The global burden of disease and injury attributable to alcohol is considerable: about 3 million deaths, namely one in 20, were caused by alcohol in 2015.

The polysemous concepts of psychomotricity and catatonia: A European multi-consensus perspective.

Current classification systems use the terms "catatonia" and "psychomotor phenomena" as mere a-theoretical descriptors, forgetting about their theoretical embedment. This was the source of misunderstandings among clinicians and researchers of the European collaboration on movement and sensorimotor/psychomotor functioning in schizophrenia and other psychoses or ECSP. Here, we review the different perspectives, their historical roots and highlight discrepancies.
