Reverse pupillary block with pigment dispersion and elevated intraocular pressure following bilateral phakic intraocular lens implantation.

The authors describe a case of reverse pupillary block with pigment dispersion following sequential phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation for high myopia, in a young female patient. The intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation began 3 weeks postoperatively, for which Nd-YAG laser peripheral iridotomies (PIs) were attempted elsewhere. Despite maximum medical therapy, the IOP was uncontrolled.

Social Factors Associated With Congenital Syphilis in Missouri.

Background: Congenital syphilis disproportionately affects individuals impacted by adverse social determinants of health. Understanding these determinants may help facilitate holistic care.

Methods: We performed a retrospective review of mother-infant dyads with potential congenital syphilis in a Missouri hospital system.

Lasting Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Care and Prevention of Sexually Transmitted Infections in the Midwest.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic reduced the general accessibility of health services. Many sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing and treatment sites modified services (e.g.

One-Dimensional, Titania Lepidocrocite-Based Nanofilaments and Their Polysulfide Anchoring Capabilities in Lithium-Sulfur Batteries.

The high theoretical energy density of metal-sulfur batteries compared to their lithium-ion counter parts renders sulfur-based electrode chemistries attractive. Additionally, sulfur is relatively abundant and environmentally benign. Yet, issues like the low conductivity of sulfur, polysulfide (PS) formation, and shuttling have hindered the development of sulfur chemistries.

Building capacity: a cross-sectional evaluation of the US Training Institute for Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health.

Background: In 2011, the National Institute of Health (NIH) initiated the Training in Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health (TIDIRH) program. Over its first 5 years, TIDIRH provided an in-person, week-long training to 197 investigators who were new to the dissemination and implementation (D&I) field. This paper evaluates the long-term impact of TIDIRH on trainees' use of D&I methods, collaborations, and research funding.
