Background: Bilateral medial rectus muscle recession with or without Cüppers' posterior fixation suture and recess and resect surgery are used to correct for large angle esotropia. There are only few reports on three muscle surgery (3MS). We analyzed the results of 3MS.
Patients And Methods: Between June 2016 and May 2020, 61 patients received 3MS for esotropia ≥ 27° (50 PD) together with oblique muscle surgery, if needed. Angles of strabismus were measured by simultaneous prism and cover testing (SPCT) and alternating prism and cover testing (APCT) at 5 m and 0.3 m. Grading was around 0.51 mm/degree (at 5 m). Medium-term results of 57 patients were available.
Results: Medians and ranges (min-max) were: age, 6 years (3-56 years). Preoperative APCT, far 34° (27-45°), near 36° (27-50°). Amount of surgery, 17 mm (15-21 mm), oblique muscle recession in 21 cases. The APCT after 5 months (3-24 months), far 2° (-10-18), near 2° (-8-18). Success rates (absolute deviation ≤ 6° [10 PD]), APCT far 68%, near 67%, SPCT far 79%, near 74%. Exotropia > 6° occurred in 4 cases (7%) at far and 3 (5%) at near, esotropia > 6° in 14 cases (25%) at far and 16 (28%) at near.
Conclusion: The use of 3MS is a suitable first step procedure to correct for large angle esotropia.

Protein-nanoparticle interactions and the resulting corona formation play crucial roles in the behavior and functionality of nanoparticles in biological environments. In this study, we present a comprehensive analysis of protein corona formation with superfolder green fluorescent protein (sfGFP) and bovine serum albumin in silica nanoparticle dispersions using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). For the first time, we subtracted the scattering of individual proteins in solution and individual nanoparticles from the protein-nanoparticle complexes.

Background: Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has attracted much attention as a powerful detection and analysis tool with high sensitivity and fast detection speed. The intensity of the SERS signal mainly depended on the highly enhanced electromagnetic field of nanostructure near the substrate. However, the fabrication of high-quality SERS nanostructured substrates is usually complicated, makes many methods unsuitable for large-scale production of SERS substrates.

pH-responsive polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are used as well-defined building blocks to design light-switchable nano-assemblies in solution. The complex interplay between the photoresponsive di-anionic azo dye Acid Yellow 38 (AY38) and the cationic PAMAM dendrimers of different generations is presented in this study. Electrostatic self-assembly involving secondary dipole-dipole interactions provides well-defined assemblies within a broad size range (10 nm-1 μm) with various shapes.

Amidst the pervasive threat of bacterial afflictions, the imperative for advanced antibiofilm surfaces with robust antimicrobial efficacy looms large. This study unveils a sophisticated ultrasonic synthesis method for cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs, 10-20 nm in diameter and 300-900 nm in length) and their subsequent application as coatings on flexible substrates, namely cotton (CC-1) and membrane (CM-1). The cellulose nanocrystals showed excellent water repellency with a water contact angle as high as 148° on the membrane.

Introduction: Gait analysis is a vital tool in the assessment of human movement and has been widely used in clinical settings to identify potential abnormalities in individuals. However, there is a lack of consensus on the normative values for gait metrics in large populations. The primary objective of this study is to establish a normative database of spatiotemporal gait metrics across various age groups, contributing to a broader understanding of human gait dynamics.
