Background And Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of cataract extraction on intraocular pressure at 6, 12, and 24 months and their difference compared to the baseline in diverse glaucoma subtypes.
Materials And Methods: We carried out research in the MEDLINE, Cochrane Library and EMBASE databases, as of April 2022 for relevant papers, filtered according to established inclusion and exclusion criteria. The meta-analysis evaluated the Mean Reduction and relative Standard Error in these subpopulations at predetermined times.
A latanoprost cationic emulsion (STN1013001) vs. other latanoprost formulations (Latanoprost) in open angle glaucoma/ocular hypertension and ocular surface disease: an Italian cost-utility analysis.

Background: STN1013001 is an innovative latanoprost cationic emulsion for open-angle glaucoma/ocular hypertension (OAG/OHT) and ocular surface disease (OSD).
Methods And Findings: A 5-year, 7 health states, 1-year cycle early Markov model-supported cost-utility analysis (CUA) of STN1013001 vs. other latanoprost formulations (Latanoprost) followed the Italian National Health Service (INHS) perspective.
Purpose: As a progressive condition, glaucoma may impair health-related quality of life (HRQoL), due to vision loss and other factors. This study evaluated HRQoL in a cohort of patients treated for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and assessed its association with clinical features.
Methods: This was an Italian, multicentre, cross-sectional, observational study with the subgroup of newly diagnosed patients with POAG prospectively followed up for one year.
