Article Synopsis
- This study investigated eye and small blood vessel issues in patients who experienced symptoms after recovering from COVID-19, analyzing 44 patients mostly around 47 years old.
- Using advanced imaging techniques, researchers found significant retinal abnormalities, including hyperreflective dots and areas of capillary non-perfusion, indicating compromised blood flow.
- The results suggest that these retinal changes are linked to reduced capillary density, highlighting the importance of microvascular damage instead of just lasting problems with a protective layer around blood vessels.
Purpose: To assess the efficacy and safety of 0.19-mg fluocinolone acetonide (FAc) intravitreal implant (Iluvien) in treating chronic postoperative cystoid macular edema (PCME) after pars plana vitrectomy.
Design: Retrospective multicentric case series in clinical settings.
The increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant (PA) is a significant concern for chronic respiratory disease exacerbations. Host-directed drugs, such as flagellin, an agonist of toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5), have emerged as a promising solution. In this study, we evaluated the prophylactic intranasal administration of flagellin against a multidrug-resistant strain of PA (PA) in mice and assessed the possible synergy with the antibiotic gentamicin (GNT).

- Optic nerve head edema (ONHE) is commonly found in patients with optic neuritis (ON) and its connection to MRI abnormalities is not well understood, prompting this study to examine how effectively T2 FLAIR MRI can identify ONHE in acute ON cases.
- This study analyzed data from 102 patients with acute ON and found a high agreement (92%) between MRI findings and fundus photography, indicating that MRI can reliably detect ONHE.
- The research concluded that T2 FLAIR MRI is a sensitive and specific method for diagnosing ONHE, which can aid in the assessment of patients with optic neuritis.
