Unlabelled: Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a leading cause of visual impairment and blindness among diabetic patients, its prevalence is continuing to increase worldwide. Faricimab, a bispecific antibody, represents a new generation of treatments for DME.
Purpose: This study presents an indirect comparison of the effectiveness and safety of faricimab versus other treatment options for DME.

High-velocity lateral impacts to the nose sometimes cause nasal buckle-out fractures with a trapdoor buckle-out segment displaced outwards. Prolonged immobilization of a reduced buckle-out segment at risk for outward redisplacement remains challenging. Here we introduce a novel method of intranasal outer cortex splinting with a Kirshner (K)-wire to reinforce the reduced state and prevent outward re-displacement of the buckle-out segment.

To optimize patient outcomes, healthcare decisions should be based on the most up-to-date high-quality evidence. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are vital for demonstrating the efficacy of interventions; however, information on how an intervention compares to already available treatments and/or fits into treatment algorithms is sometimes limited. Although different therapeutic classes are available for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), assessing the relative efficacy of these treatments is challenging.

SnS holds great promise in optoelectronics, especially in photovoltaic devices, due to its exceptional intrinsic electronic properties and optimal optical absorption. However, its prospective applications are often limited by structural instability or oxidation, leading to internal or external defect states. This study proposes a mixed-phase SnS/h-BN heterostructure to enhance chemical and thermal stability while preserving the intrinsic optoelectronic properties of SnS.
