Presumed bilateral acute idiopathic maculopathy in a pediatric patient.

Purpose: To describe a rare case of presumed bilateral acute idiopathic maculopathy (AIM) in a pediatric patient.

Observation: An 11-year-old male was evaluated for a "fuzzy Dorito-shaped" spot in the central vision of his right eye (OD) that started 3 days before presenting to our clinic. On examination, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was counting fingers at 5 feet OD, and 20/25 in the left eye (OS).

A Primer on Carceral Health for Clinicians: Care Delivery, Regulatory Oversight, Legal and Ethical Considerations, and Clinician Responsibilities.

The United States has one of the highest incarceration rates in the world, with approximately 1.7 million individuals detained in jails or federal or state prisons. Chronic medical conditions are more prevalent among adults in custody than among their nonincarcerated counterparts, resulting in needs that often surpass the on-site medical treatment capabilities of carceral facilities.

In vitro Biological Evaluation and In silico Studies of a New Anthraquinone from Zingiber cassumunar Roxb. in Type 2 Diabetes Management.

A novel diphenyl-anthraquinone compound, cassuquinone A, was isolated from the rhizomes of Zingiber cassumunar. Structural elucidation was accomplished using detailed NMR and HRMS-ESI  techniques, revealing a symmetrical anthraquinone core with methoxylated aromatic rings. Cassuquinone A exhibited potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with an IC₅₀ of 11.

Temperature Dependence of Optical Properties of MoS and WS Heterostructures Assessed by Spectroscopic Ellipsometry.

We report the complex dielectric function = + of MoS/WS and WS/MoS heterostructures and their constituent monolayers MoS and WS for an energy range from 1.5 to 6.0 eV and temperatures from 39 to 300 K.
