Involutional lower eyelid ectropion is a common disorder of the elderly population. Several surgical approaches have been described in the literature to address the multifactorial nature of this condition, each targeting different factors contributing to its development. Nevertheless, no single procedure has proven to be superior to the others.

Methods: Retrospective case series of three eyes presenting a pigment dispersion in the filtering bleb after a XEN63 implantation for uncontrolled IOP. Demographic, clinical and imaging data were obtained from medical records.
Stroke is a major cause of disability for adults over 40 years of age. While research into animal models has prioritized treatments aimed at diminishing post-stroke damage, no studies have investigated the response to a severe stroke injury in a highly regenerative adult mammal. Here we investigate the effects of transient ischemia on adult spiny mice, Acomys cahirinus, due to their ability to regenerate multiple tissues without scarring.

- Humans use smooth pursuit and saccades to track moving targets, with catch-up saccades correcting tracking errors.
- The study examined how retinal acceleration error impacts saccade latency and amplitude during target pursuit.
- Findings indicate that retinal acceleration error significantly predicts saccade parameters, suggesting it helps in estimating future target positions along with position and velocity errors.
Article Synopsis
- A study in Ontario analyzed maternal deaths related to childbirth over 20 years, finding a maternal mortality ratio of 17.5 per 100,000 live and stillbirths, with significant early and late death disparities.
- Among 485 maternal deaths, 45.8% occurred within 42 days post-birth, mostly due to complications like hemorrhage and infections, while the majority of late deaths from day 43 to 365 were linked to cancer and cardiac issues.
- The findings highlight that many maternal deaths are not caused by pregnancy-related factors, stressing the need for comprehensive examinations of late mortality to fully understand and prevent these occurrences.
