Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine how common Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) and other eye diseases are in late preterm infants at a hospital in Turkey and whether routine ROP screenings are necessary.
- It included 600 late preterm infants from a neonatal intensive care unit, finding that 3.3% developed ROP and 4.8% had other eye issues, with a significant link between these conditions and lower birth weight and gestational age.
- The researchers concluded that while the incidence of ROP in late preterm infants is low, routine screening is essential to identify and treat ROP and other ocular problems early, preventing serious vision loss.
Purpose: To investigate microvascular changes in the macular and peripapillary area in prolactinoma patients by using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
Design: A retrospective study.
Methods: This study included 40 patients with treatment-naive prolactinoma and 42 healthy controls.
Purpose: It was aimed to compare corneal endothelial changes during the initial 12-month period in which patients started using atorvastatin after a diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods: Forty-six participants (group 1) who underwent cardiac angioplasty and stenting for ACS and started using 80 mg atorvastatin in the early period were included in the study. In the study, a control group comprising 71 healthy adults (group 2) was included.
