Pediatric ocular diseases can be detectable through a comprehensive eye examination and most of them are preventable once they are discovered. There is a well known fact that children can have ocular pathology such as cataract, refractive errors, strabismus and amblyopia. In children, low vision can have a negative impact on their growth and development; therefore, any visual impairment must be detected as soon as possible to prevent amblyopia development.

Conventional MRI-Based Structural Disconnection and Morphometric Similarity Networks and Their Clinical Correlates in Multiple Sclerosis.
Neurology
February 2025
Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, University "Federico II," Naples, Italy.
Background And Objectives: Although multiple sclerosis (MS) can be conceptualized as a network disorder, brain network analyses typically require advanced MRI sequences not commonly acquired in clinical practice. Using conventional MRI, we assessed cross-sectional and longitudinal structural disconnection and morphometric similarity networks in people with MS (pwMS), along with their relationship with clinical disability.
Methods: In this longitudinal monocentric study, 3T structural MRI of pwMS and healthy controls (HC) was retrospectively analyzed.
Participatory research towards the control of snakebite envenoming and other illnesses in a riverine community of the Western Brazilian Amazon.
PLoS Negl Trop Dis
January 2025
Fundação de Medicina Tropical Dr. Heitor Vieira Dourado, Manaus, Brazil.
Background: Riverine communities face various health problems, which involve geographical and cultural barriers to accessing care, in addition to a lack of financial investments in services aimed at these communities, resulting in a process of invisibility for the population living in these regions. In this scenario, the significant burden of snakebite envenoming (SBE) highlights the need for participatory research to address ways to minimize this situation. Thus, this study aimed to describe the priority health problems identified by this population and the ranking of SBEs in that context, mapping solutions according to the local reality.

School of Medicine, College of Health Sciences, Woldia University, Woldia, Ethiopia.
Background: Multiple studies across Ethiopia have investigated the occurrence of DKA, showing significant variations and conflicting findings. This systematic review and meta-analysis seek to consolidate the overall prevalence of diabetic ketoacidosis and its associated factors in the Ethiopian context.
Methods: The study adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines.

Department of Critical Care Medicine, Taihe Hospital, Hubei University of Medicine, Shiyan, Hubei, China.
Background: This study was aimed to explore the global burden and trends of Clostridioides difficile infections (CDI) associated diseases.
Methods: Data for this study were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021. The burden of CDI was assessed using the age-standardized rates of disability-adjusted life years (ASR-DALYs) and deaths (ASDRs).
Pricing for Multi-Indication Drugs in the Italian Regulatory Context.
Pharmacoecon Open
January 2025
HTA & Pharmaceutical Economics Department, Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA), Rome, Italy.
Background: The authorization of new therapeutic indications for drugs already reimbursed by the Italian National Health Service (NHS) represents a matter of importance. This study aims to estimate the additional discount attributed to the extension of indications (EoIs) to explore the potential correlation between spending and negotiated discounts and to find specific factors (determinants) that impact on discount.
Methods: The study focused on drugs approved in Italy between 2003 and 2017 with at least four therapeutic indications, including the first approved and EoIs, with follow-up extended until 2021 to acquire all the information on the negotiation process that has been completed.
