- - The study analyzes 290 cases of retinal vein and artery occlusions linked to COVID-19 vaccines in France, with most cases arising from mRNA vaccines (68% for vein occlusions) and an average onset delay of about 11-17 days.
- - Nearly half of the patients with retinal vein occlusions had existing risk factors, primarily hypertension, and only a small number experienced positive rechallenges after the vaccine.
- - Overall, while a temporal association exists between vaccinations and retinal occlusions, many cases were influenced by pre-existing health conditions, suggesting that the benefits of vaccination still outweigh the risks, particularly for mRNA vaccines.
Background: Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy is commonly used for enteral nutritional access, but gastrocutaneous fistulae (GCF) may persist after tube removal, posing clinical challenges. The use of endoscopic closure devices, including over-the-scope clips (OTSC), has shown promise in managing non-healing fistulae, although data in the pediatric population are limited.
Methods: A retrospective multicenter study analyzed pediatric patients who underwent GCF closure following gastrostomy tube removal.
