Comparison of spectacle lenses with highly aspherical lenslets versus orthokeratology for the management of axial length elongation.
Clin Exp Optom
January 2025
Aier Eye Hospital, Jinan University, Guangzhou, China.
Clinical Relevance: When selecting an intervention for myopia management, parental inquiries centre around the comparative efficacy of orthokeratology versus myopic defocus spectacle lenses. This prompts an intriguing investigation into the nuanced differences between these two treatment methods.
Background: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of spectacle lenses with highly aspherical lenslets (HAL) versus orthokeratology (Ortho-k) in controlling axial length elongation.
An Educational Intervention to Promote Central Nervous System-Active Deprescribing in Dementia: A Pilot Study.
Drugs Aging
January 2025
Center for Clinical Management Research, VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System, NCRC 016-308E, 2800 Plymouth Rd, Ann Arbor, MI, 48109, USA.
Background: Central nervous system (CNS)-active polypharmacy (defined as concurrent exposure to three or more antidepressant, antipsychotic, antiseizure, benzodiazepine, opioid, or nonbenzodiazepine benzodiazepine receptor agonists) is associated with significant potential harms in persons living with dementia (PLWD).We conducted a pilot trial to assess a patient nudge intervention's implementation feasibility and preliminary effectiveness to prompt deprescribing conversations between PLWD experiencing CNS-active polypharmacy and their primary care clinicians ("clinicians").
Methods: We used the electronic health record to identify PLWD prescribed CNS-active polypharmacy in primary care clinics from two health systems.
Impact of Lower-Volume Training on Physical Fitness Adaptations in Team Sports Players: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Sports Med Open
January 2025
Department of Sports Science and Clinical Biomechanics, SDU Sport and Health Sciences Cluster, University of Southern Denmark, Odense, Denmark.
Background: A small number of reviews have explored lower- versus higher-volume training in non-athletes, but the growing challenge of congested schedules in team sports highlights the need to synthesize evidence specific to team sport athletes. Thus, the objectives of this systematic review with meta-analysis are twofold: (i) to summarize the primary physiological and physical fitness outcomes of lower-volume versus higher-volume training interventions in team sports players; and (ii) to compare the effects of lower-volume training with higher, considering the training modalities used.
Methods: We conducted searches across key databases, including PubMed, Scopus, SPORTDiscus, and Web of Science.
Postoperative outcomes of biopsy versus debulking surgery for immunoglobulin G4-related ophthalmic disease: a retrospective comparative study.
Jpn J Ophthalmol
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, 2-2 Yamadaoka, Suita, 565-0871, Osaka, Japan.
Purpose: To compare the postoperative outcomes of corticosteroid therapy following biopsy with those following debulking surgery in patients with immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related ophthalmic disease (IgG4-ROD).
Study Design: Retrospective comparative study.
Methods: Fifteen patients diagnosed with IgG4-ROD (5 unilateral, 10 bilateral) were retrospectively analyzed.
A comparison on safety and efficacy between 24 Fr versus 18 Fr pneumatic balloon dilators for percutaneous treatment of renal stones between 10 and 20 mm: results from a contemporary cohort.
World J Urol
January 2025
Department of Urology, Azienda Socio Sanitaria Territoriale Lariana, Como, Italy.
Purpose: To assess differences in safety and efficacy between 24 and 18 Fr pneumatic balloon dilators for percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PCNL) of renal stones between 10 and 20 mm.
Methods: Patients were randomized to dilatation with a 24 Fr (Group A) versus 18 Fr (Group B) Ultraxx pneumatic dilator (Cook Medical). In all procedures percutaneous puncture was performed under ultrasound guidance.
