Objectives: This study evaluates the efficiency of toric artificial intraocular lenses in correcting the astigmatism of pacients operated by facoemulsification.
Methods: A retrospective study was carried in which took part during the following period: february 2008 - february 2010. The study was carried on a number of 37 eyes. The pacients were evaluated by: refractometry, keratometry, corneal topography biometry, biomicroscopic examination of the eye (anterior and poterior poles), aplanotonometry the calculation of the IOL dioptric value and implantation axes with the help of the Alcon-acrysof calculator.
Results: AV without correction > 1/2 in 98 % of cases. AV without correction > 2/3 in 62 % of cases. AV with correction > 5/6 in 85 % of cases. Medium residual astigmatism between 0,25-0,75D CONCLUSIONS: The implant of toric IOL is a viable option in the treatement of preoperative astigmatism in selected cases.

Individualized symptom experience and predictors in cancer patients after oesophagectomy: A latent profile analysis.
Eur J Oncol Nurs

Purpose: In the care for oesophageal cancer, symptom assessment was mainly carried out from the perspective of the total score using scales, which ignored individual differences in symptom experience among patients. To provide personalized symptom management, individual differences among patients with oesophageal cancer warranted further investigation. The objective was to identify the different symptom profiles of patients after oesophagectomy and examine the risk factors affecting the symptom profiles.

Rationale: This study presents a case of hemoglobin M disease (HMD), a rare inherited disorder characterized by persistent cyanosis and hypoxemia, observed across 3 generations within a single family. The diagnosis of HMD poses significant challenges, particularly in asymptomatic individuals, due to its rarity and the subtlety of its symptoms. Notably, there is a scarcity of reports on methemoglobinemia in pediatric populations, which further complicates early detection and intervention.

Preharvest sprouting (PHS) is an unfavorable trait in cereal crops that significantly reduces grain yield and quality. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying this complex trait are still largely unknown. Here, 276 rice accessions from the 3000 Rice Genomes Project were used to perform a genome-wide association study.

Omissions or delays in desmopressin can result in serious patient harm in patients with Arginine-Vasopressin Deficiency (AVP-D), formally known as Cranial Diabetes Insipidus (CDI). Desmopressin administration practice in hospitals has not been thoroughly investigated previously. This study evaluated desmopressin prescription and administration practice at a large tertiary centre.

Purpose: Although lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies, the underlying genetics regarding susceptibility remain poorly understood. We characterized the spectrum of pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants within DNA damage response (DDR) genes among lung cancer cases and controls in non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs) and African Americans (AAs).
Materials And Methods: Rare, germline variants in 67 DDR genes with evidence of pathogenicity were identified using the ClinVar database.
