The recent comment on our previously published article questioned the novelty and computational efficiency of our work. Here we respond by restating the novelty and scientific value of our work as well as showing why the specific alternative methods stated in the comment are unlikely to outperform the methods we compare for metasurface applications involving high refractive index particles near high refractive index substrates.

Importance: Early detection of glaucoma is essential to timely monitoring and treatment, and primary open-angle glaucoma risk can be assessed by measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) or optic nerve head vertical cup-disc ratio (VCDR). Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) could provide a link between genetic effects estimated from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) and clinical applications to provide estimates of an individual's genetic risk by combining many identified variants into a score.
Objective: To construct IOP and VCDR PRSs with clinically relevant predictive power.
Systemic Postnatal Corticosteroids, Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia, and Survival Free of Cerebral Palsy.

Importance: Systemic postnatal corticosteroids have been shown to reduce rates of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in infants born preterm, but both corticosteroids and BPD are associated with cerebral palsy.
Objective: To describe how the association between systemic postnatal corticosteroids and survival free of cerebral palsy varies with the risk of BPD in infants born preterm, and if the association differs between dexamethasone and hydrocortisone, or with age at starting treatment.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This comparative effectiveness research used weighted meta-regression analysis of eligible randomized clinical trials (RCTs) of systemic postnatal corticosteroids reported from June 1989 through March 2022 that included rates of all of BPD, mortality, and cerebral palsy in neonatal intensive care units in 10 countries.
Electronic Nudges and Influenza Vaccination Among Patients With a History of Myocardial Infarction: Insights From 3 Nationwide Randomized Clinical Trials.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the significance of influenza vaccination in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and evaluates methods to enhance vaccine uptake among this high-risk group.
- The research consists of three nationwide randomized clinical trials conducted in Denmark that tested the effectiveness of electronically delivered behavioral nudges against usual care in increasing vaccination rates among AMI patients.
- The primary outcome measured was the rate of influenza vaccinations received, with findings suggesting that these behavioral nudges could potentially improve vaccination uptake in the targeted population.
