Descemet's membrane (DM) detachment is a significant, if rare, risk of intracameral injection of viscoelastic to treat hypotony after glaucoma filtration surgery. We describe two cases of DM detachment following inadvertent injection of viscoelastic into the posterior stroma and the techniques used for their repair. In both cases, conventional air tamponade failed to resolve the detachment, and further surgical intervention was required.

During anatomy dissection, the release of formaldehyde (FA) from cadavers and embalming fluids can negatively affect the well-being of students and staff. The exposure of students, staff, and technicians to FA in the dissection hall is a concern. To address this issue, a study measured the FA and air quality (CO and Total Volatile Organic Compounds- TVOC) with different ventilation setups: natural, fan-based, and air-conditioned.

Background: Cooking-related emissions contribute to air pollutants in the home and may influence children's health outcomes.
Objective: In this pilot study, we investigate the effects of a cooking ventilation intervention in homes with gas stoves, including a video-based educational intervention and range hood replacement (when needed) in children's homes.
Methods: This was a pilot (n = 14), before-after trial (clinicaltrials.

Bioaerosols are ubiquitous and have a substantial impact on the atmosphere and human health. Despite the identification of numerous bioaerosol emission sources, the contribution of anthropogenic sources remains inadequately understood. In kitchens, oil stains accumulated at the vent may discharge microorganisms into the environment with airflow, potentially discharging bioaerosol pollution.
