Tap water as the source of a Legionnaires' disease outbreak spread to several residential buildings and one hospital, Finland, 2020 to 2021.

In Finland, all microbiology laboratories notify findings and physicians notify Legionnaires' disease (LD) cases to the National Infectious Disease Register. All cases are interviewed, and water samples obtained from potential places of exposure. isolates from humans and water are compared by whole genome sequencing (WGS).

Factors affecting the sensitivity and specificity of the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph parameters to glaucomatous progression in disc photographs.

Purpose: To evaluate the factors affecting the sensitivity and specificity of the stereometric optic nerve head (ONH) parameters of the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) to glaucomatous progression in stereoscopic ONH photographs.

Methods: The factors affecting the sensitivity and specificity of the vertical cup : disc ratio, the cup : disc area ratio, the cup volume, the rim area and a linear discriminant function to progression were analysed. These parameters were the best indicators of progression in a retrospective study of 476 eyes.

Clinical assessment of stereoscopic optic disc photographs for glaucoma: the European Optic Disc Assessment Trial.

Purpose: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of judging optic disc photographs for glaucoma by ophthalmologists.

Design: Evaluation of diagnostic test and technology.

Participants: A total of 243 of 875 invited ophthalmologists in 11 European countries.

A four-year prospective study on intraocular pressure in relation to phacoemulsification cataract surgery.

Aim Of Study: To follow up prospectively the intraocular pressure (IOP) of healthy eyes with senile cataract undergoing phacoemulsification surgery over a duration of 4 years.

Patients And Methods: Thirty-five patients entering first eye cataract surgery had IOP measured by applanation tonometry pre-operatively and on day 1, at 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 4 years after surgery at 9 a.m.

The sensitivity and specificity of Heidelberg Retina Tomograph parameters to glaucomatous progression in disc photographs.

Aim: To determine the sensitivity and specificity of the stereometric optic nerve head (ONH) parameters of the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) to detect an event of progression verified in serial stereoscopic ONH photography.

Methods: A retrospective study of 476 eyes of 342 patients with more than 18 months of follow-up with successful stereoscopic ONH photography was conducted. All eyes had good-quality HRT examinations with perfect image alignment.
