Background & Aims: Enteral autonomy, a key outcome of intestinal rehabilitation in patients with intestinal failure (IF), is challenging to predict due to disease complexity and heterogeneity. The aim of this cohort study is to develop and validate a multivariate model to predict enteral autonomy in patients with IF caused by Crohn's disease (CDIF), and to derive an outcome-based severity classification for CDIF.
Methods: The CDIF-Wean Score was constructed and internally validated in a cohort of 182 patients with CDIF from a tertiary IF unit.
Background And Aims: The natural history of Crohn's disease leading to intestinal failure is not well characterised. This study aims to describe the clinical course of Crohn's disease preceding intestinal failure and compare disease course and burden between Crohn's disease patients with and without intestinal failure.
Methods: Patients with Crohn's disease complicated by intestinal failure from Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen (n=182) and a nationwide Danish Crohn's disease cohort without intestinal failure (n=22,845) were included.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether UVA-light-activated riboflavin-induced collagen crosslinking (UVA-CXL) can maintain the function of filtering blebs after trabeculectomy (TRAB) in rabbits.
Methods: Thirty-six healthy rabbits were randomized to one of the following groups with 12 rabbits in each group: Trabeculectomy group (TRAB group), trabeculectomy combined with CXL group (CXL group), and trabeculectomy combined with MMC group (MMC group). Six rabbits of each group were performed with intraocular pressure (IOP), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT angiography (OCTA).

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the changes in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and prevalence of cataract in China from 1990 to 2019, and to predict future trends between 2020 and 2030.
- Data was collected using the Global Burden of Diseases database, analyzing trends by age and gender using statistical software.
- Results indicated a significant rise in DALYs and cataract cases over the years, with increasing burdens predicted, particularly affecting older women and linked to factors such as air pollution and obesity.
Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ultrasound cycloplasty (UCP) for glaucoma.
Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases was used to select studies met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis was performed by Review Manager and StataCorp LLC.
