Purpose: To evaluate indications, clinic characteristics, and outcomes in a series of patients who underwent explantation of phakic intraocular lens (pIOL).
Methods: Retrospective case series of patients who underwent iris-claw pIOL explantation in our institution from 2018 to 2022. Indications for explantation and visual and refractive outcomes were analyzed.
The plastomes of Lepismium cruciforme (Vell.) Miq and Schlumbergera truncata (Haw.) Moran reveal tribe-specific rearrangements and the first loss of the trnT-GGU gene in Cactaceae.

Article Synopsis
- Recent studies on the Cactaceae family have uncovered unusual features in their plastomes, especially concerning epiphytic cacti, which differ from the more commonly studied globose and cylindrical types.
- The research focused on the plastomes of two South American epiphytic cacti, revealing significant gene losses, particularly the degradation of the trnT-GGU gene, and mapping important genetic markers for phylogenetic analysis.
- Key findings include a generally conserved plastome structure within the Rhipsalideae tribe, along with notable gene divergence and rapid evolution in certain RNA editing sites, highlighting unique evolutionary patterns in this group of cacti.

ILC3 cells contribute to the integrity of intestinal epithelium by producing IL-22 via IL-1β and IL-23. This study investigates the role of IL-1R1 in inducing ILC3 cells and conferring protection during obesity and MS.
