Malignant glaucoma treated by low-dose laser cycloplasty: a 1-year multicenter prospective non-comparative study.

Aim: To report a one-year clinical outcomes of low-dose laser cycloplasty (LCP) among malignant glaucoma patients.

Methods: In this prospective, multicenter, non-comparative clinical study, participants with malignant glaucoma were recruited and underwent LCP at eight ophthalmic centers in China. Patients were followed up at 1wk, 1, 3, 6, and 12mo.

Two ferroptosis-specific expressed genes NOX4 and PARP14 are considered as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic retinopathy and atherosclerosis.

Objectives: Both Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and Atherosclerosis (AS) are common complications in patients with diabetes, and they share major pathophysiological similarities and have a common pathogenesis. Studies performed to date have demonstrated that ferroptosis plays a vital part in the occurrence and development of DR and AS, but its mechanism in the two diseases remains poorly understood.

Methods: DR Chip data (GSE60436 and GSE102485) and AS chip data (GSE100927 and GSE57691) were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.

[CO laser moxibustion for endometriosis related pelvic pain of cold coagulation and blood stasis: a randomized controlled trial].

Objective: To observe the clinical therapeutic effect of CO laser moxibustion on endometriosis related pelvic pain of cold coagulation and blood stasis.

Methods: A total of 76 patients with endometriosis related pelvic pain of cold coagulation and blood stasis were randomized into a laser moxibustion group and a sham laser moxibustion group, 38 cases in each group. In the laser moxibustion group, moxibustion was applied at bilateral Zigong (EX-CA 1) using CO laser moxibustion instrument.
