Purpose: This correlational study aimed to determine the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Visual Function Classification System (VFCS) for children with CP.
Method: Two physiotherapists and caregivers ( = 56) applied the VFCS ( = 120) two times at a 15-day interval. Physiotherapists' classifications were compared for interrater reliability.
Unlabelled: Infection and sepsis continue to be the leading cause of morbidity and death in burn injuries. Diagnosing sepsis in burns is challenging as signs and symptoms of sepsis are not specific and overlap with those related to the burn injury. While the use of procalcitonin (PCT) as a biomarker is recommended for diagnosing sepsis in burns, evidence for children with burns is scarce.

- The study investigated food addiction prevalence among university students, focusing on differences based on their chronotypes (morning, evening, or intermediate types).
- Findings revealed that 12.5% of students met the criteria for food addiction, with evening types showing higher rates compared to morning and intermediate types.
- Additionally, a correlation was found between evening types, higher ADHD symptoms, and impulsivity, suggesting that these factors may contribute to greater food addiction risk among these students.
To evaluate the visual acuity, defocus curve and visual quality of life following bilateral implantation of a new hybrid extended depth of focus (EDOF)-multifocal diffractive intraocular lens (IOL). Patients who underwent cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of Tecnis Synergy IOL were enrolled in this study. The main outcomes were defined as uncorrected distant, intermediate and near visual acuities (UDVA, UIVA and UNVA, respectively), defocus curve and VF-14 questionnaire aimed for visual performance.
