The authors describe indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) in a 46-year-old male patient with acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN). The chief complaint was decreasing visual acuity and metamorphopsia in both eyes of 1-month duration. Visual field assessment, fluorescein angiography, OCT, ICGA, and EDI-OCT were performed initially and at 3 months. ICGA showed choroidal vascular hyperpermeability and punctuate choroidal hyperfluorescent spots, especially in the left eye. EDI-OCT showed increased choroidal macular thickness, with inner and outer retinal layers affected. EDI-OCT and ICGA reveal that both the choroid and retina can be affected in AMN; however, the primary pathology and localization of depth of involvement in AMN remains unclear.

Background: Healthcare resources have been concentrated in urban areas, leaving rural regions vulnerable to poorer health outcomes. The Problem Solving for Better Health (PSBH) program was implemented to enhance healthcare systems in resource-limited regions by training personnel to maximize existing resources in problem-solving. This study evaluated the implementation effectiveness of PSBH-Nursing (PSBHN), a nationally led initiative to train nurses in PSBH in Lesotho.

Background: Many countries worldwide face the problem of underdeveloped fundamental movement skills (FMS) in children. Active play (AP) holds significant potential for enhancing children's FMS based on its free-choice and unstructured nature, as well as its ease of implementation and dissemination. Therefore, the primary objective of this systematic review was to determine the effects of AP interventions on FMS in typically developing children.

DNA methylation (DNAm) is a key epigenetic mark that shows profound alterations in cancer. Read-level methylomes enable more in-depth analyses, due to their broad genomic coverage and preservation of rare cell-type signals, compared to summarized data such as 450K/EPIC microarrays. Here, we propose MethylBERT, a Transformer-based model for read-level methylation pattern classification.

Fish migration patterns are driven by hydrodynamic factors, which are essential in aquatic ecology. This study investigated the hydrodynamic drivers of Gymnocypris przewalskii fish migration in two distinct river reaches-a straight reach (SR) and a confluence reach (CR)- in the area of Qinghai Lake, China, using a 3D numerical model, fish density field data, and four predictive models. Thirteen hydrodynamic factors, with a focus on water depth and velocity, were analyzed to identify their influence on fish migration.
