Development and validation of a high-throughput qPCR platform for the detection of soil-transmitted helminth infections.
PLoS Negl Trop Dis
January 2025
DeWorm3 Project, Seattle, Washington, United States of America.
Background: Historically, soil-transmitted helminth (STH) control and prevention strategies have relied on mass drug administration efforts targeting preschool and school-aged children. While these efforts have succeeded in reducing morbidity associated with STH infection, recent modeling efforts have suggested that expanding intervention to treatment of the entire community could achieve transmission interruption in some settings. Testing the feasibility of such an approach requires large-scale clinical trials, such as the DeWorm3 cluster randomized trial.

Clinical Sciences Department, College of Medicine, University of Sharjah, Sharjah, UAE.
Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs), which are infections of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, or urethra, are a worldwide public health concern. As compared to men, women are more prone to UTIs. There have been several studies that explore the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of women regarding UTIs in different countries, but no such study has been conducted in the UAE; therefore, we conducted this study in the UAE setting.

JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland.
Importance: Determining spectacle-corrected visual acuity (VA) is essential when managing many ophthalmic diseases. If artificial intelligence (AI) evaluations of macular images estimated this VA from a fundus image, AI might provide spectacle-corrected VA without technician costs, reduce visit time, or facilitate home monitoring of VA from fundus images obtained outside of the clinic.
Objective: To estimate spectacle-corrected VA measured on a standard eye chart among patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) in clinical practice settings using previously validated AI algorithms evaluating best-corrected VA from fundus photographs in eyes with DME.

Divisions of Pediatric Surgery and Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, The Stollery Children's Hospital and University of Alberta Hospital, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Objective: To report the clinical and laryngeal electromyographic (LEMG) parameters of children with laryngeal dyskinesia (LD) and its prevalence among laryngeal mobility disorder (LMD) requiring full airway examination.
Study Design: Retrospective uncontrolled study.
Setting: Tertiary pediatric center.
Lucia Keratoprosthesis in a Sclerocorneal Graft for Recurrent Graft Rejection Secondary to Herpetic Keratitis.
Cornea
January 2025
Instituto de Oftalmologia Fundacion Conde de Valenciana IAP, Mexico City, Mexico.
Purpose: To report the surgical approach of a Lucia keratoprosthesis (KPro) on a sclerocorneal graft in the setting of recurrent graft rejection and perilimbal scleral thinning.
Methods: A case report.
Results: We report the case of a 26-year-old man with a history of herpes simplex keratitis, 2 penetrating keratoplasties, graft failure, secondary glaucoma, and a conjunctival flap in the right eye who underwent a Lucia KPro, lens extraction, glaucoma drainage device, and pars plana vitrectomy.
