Efficacy and Safety of Mydriatic Microdrops for Retinopathy of Prematurity Screening: The MyMiROPS Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: Commercial mydriatics administered in preterm infants during retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) screening have been associated with various cardiorespiratory and gastrointestinal adverse events.

Objective: To examine whether microdrops of a combined mixture of 1.67% phenylephrine and 0.

Comparison of Intraocular Pressure Measurements Using Three Different Methods (Goldmann Applanation Tonometry (GAT), Corvis ST, and iCare) Following Penetrating Keratoplasty.

Intraocular pressure (IOP) readings using three different methods (Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT), Corvis ST, and iCare) were compared in patients who underwent penetrating keratoplasty (PK). : An observational cross-sectional study with prospective recruitment of patients was conducted. IOP measurements were acquired using GAT, iCare, and Corvis (including both uncorrected IOP (CVS-IOP) and biomechanical IOP (bIOP)), and the agreement among methods was analyzed using Bland-Altman plots.

Surgical and Non-Surgical Approach for Tear Trough Correction: Fat Repositioning Versus Hyaluronic Acid Fillers.

: This paper compares two popular techniques for tear trough correction-fat repositioning and hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers-highlighting their efficacy, safety profiles, patient satisfaction, and associated complications. : A narrative review of 20 studies comparing fat repositioning and HA fillers was conducted, focusing on parameters such as duration of results, volume restoration, complication rates, and patient satisfaction. : Fat repositioning provides long-lasting results but carries higher surgical risks compared with HA fillers.

Predicting the risk of treatment-requiring retinopathy of prematurity in preterm infants in Greece. External validation of DIGIROP prognostic models.

Purpose: To assess the predictive performance of DIGIROP-v1.0 models in identifying treatment-requiring ROP among infants undergoing ROP screening at a tertiary neonatal intensive care unit in Greece.

Methods: Retrospective cohort analysis of 640 consecutive screened preterm infants with gestational age (GA) 24 to 30 weeks and known ROP outcome in the 2nd Neonatology Department of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (2009-2021).

Cephalometric Evaluation of Children with Short Stature of Genetic Etiology: A Review.

A plethora of biological molecules regulate chondrogenesis in the epiphyseal growth plate. Disruptions of the quantity and function of these molecules can manifest clinically as stature abnormalities of various etiologies. Traditionally, the growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) axis represents the etiological centre of final stature attainment.
