Development of a Self-Care Autonomy in Health Scale for Late Adolescents.

Background: This paper describes the development of the Self-Care Autonomy in Health Scale for Late Adolescents (SAHSLA) for use with general samples. It addresses concerns regarding the nonclinical efficacy of self-care health scales for adolescents, particularly their ability to discriminate between lower levels of self-care.

Methods: A survey was constructed based on literature review and subsequently evaluated in two studies.

Sex Differences in Antidepressant Acceptability According to Filled Prescription Sequences in a Nationwide Cohort Study.

The prevalence of depressive and anxiety disorders is higher in women than in men. In contrast, there is still no clear consensus on the existence of sex-related differences in the effectiveness of antidepressant treatments for these disorders. This real-world study used filled prescription sequences to compare antidepressant medications between women and men at a medication level according to their acceptability (ie, combination of efficacy and tolerability).

Refractive outcomes for secondary sutureless posterior chamber lens implantation: sutureless scleral fixating lens Carlevale® versus retropupillary iris-claw lens Artisan®.

Purpose: To compare refractive outcomes of the foldable intraocular lens sutureless scleral fixated sutureless (Carlevale® FIL-SSF) with the iris-claw lens (Artisan®).

Methods: This retrospective study included consecutive patients who underwent a FIL-SSF implantation or an iris-claw implantation between January 2020 and November 2022 in the ophthalmology departments of Hospices Civils de Lyon (France).

Results: A total of 271 eyes from 265 patients were included: 96 eyes in the FIL-SSF group and 175 eyes in the iris-claw group.

Codoped germanene with 3p and 4p elements elements.

Context: The relentless need for new materials to be used in electronic devices has opened new research directions in materials science. One of them involves using two-dimensional materials, among which there is current interest in using germanene. The heteroatom doping of germanene has been proposed as a possible approach to fine-tuning its electronic properties.
