Background: COVID-19 caused a huge backlog of patients in glaucoma clinics. This study describes redesign of an entire glaucoma service with electronic patient triage to three levels and utilisation of the Scottish optometry infrastructure of upskilled optometrists.
Methods: 2276 patients in glaucoma clinics were identified and triaged to three levels in keeping with Glauc-strat-fast guidance with local amendments.

Background: Alkylresorcinols are a well-established biomarker for whole grain intake. There is evidence suggesting that total plasma alkylresorcinol concentration may also be used as a biomarker for gluten intake in adults.
Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate if total alkylresorcinol concentration is a valid biomarker for gluten intake in young children.

Context: Pachydermoperiostosis (primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, PHO) usually due to biallelic loss-of-function variants in HPGD and SLCO2A1, has some features overlapping with acromegaly and often referred to endocrinologists. A detailed endocrine assessment is not available for these patients.
Objective: To assess the genetic and endocrine characteristics of PHO patients referred to endocrine centres with a possible diagnosis of acromegaly.

Musculoskeletal modeling based on inverse dynamics provides a cost-effective non-invasive means for calculating intersegmental joint reaction forces and moments, solely relying on kinematic data, easily obtained from smart wearables. On the other hand, the accuracy and precision of such models strongly hinge upon the selected scaling methodology tailored to subject-specific data. This study investigates the impact of upper body mass distribution on internal and external kinetics computed using a comprehensive musculoskeletal model during level walking in both normal weight and obese individuals.

Dissolved Rare Earth Elements (REEs) concentrations have been widely used in geochemical studies due to their systematic changes in the environment, acting as tracers in various natural processes. In addition to the usefulness of naturally controlled chemical REE fractionations used in the ocean, the extraction and measurement procedures of seawater REEs using chelating resin and ICP-MS may also be subject to method-derived analytical fractionations, leading to potential misinterpretations. The bracketing standard and the Lu methods were compared to verify any fractionation or deviation associated with the analytical processes.
