In this work we present a method for the deposition of periodically ordered, c-axis aligned ZnO nanorod arrays. By using chemical bath deposited films in conjunction with silica templating through nanosphere monolayers, masks suitable for high temperature deposition are created. A vapour phase transport technique is then used to deposit ordered arrays, quickly and inexpensively in a manner ideal for low cost, scalable and reproducible growth on a diverse range of substrates.

The Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry (Soreg) was initiated in 2007 in order to track the quality of bariatric surgery in Sweden during a period of rapid expansion. The main focus of Soreg is quality control and a base for research. All surgical units that perform bariatric surgery in Sweden report to Soreg, and to date about 93 000 patients are included in Soreg.

Background: To investigate the impact of central corneal astigmatism on postoperative visual outcomes in patients with trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.
Methods: This retrospective study included 278 eyes of 278 patients who underwent uneventful cataract surgery with implantation of the trifocal IOL (AT LISA tri 839MP). Patients were divided into two groups according to the total corneal refractive power (TCRP) in 3 mm zone centered on the corneal apex: low astigmatism group, TCRP ≤ 0.
