Diabetic macular edema (DMO) poses a significant risk to vision, primarily caused by the leakage of retinal vessels. Traditional treatments involve anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agents and corticosteroids, though responses vary, necessitating frequent treatments. This retrospective study at a London-based tertiary eye hospital evaluates the efficacy of faricimab, a bispecific antibody inhibiting angiopoietin 2 (Ang-2) and VEGF-A, in treating DMO.

Purpose: To evaluate visual and anatomical outcome of consecutive patients who received intravitreal injections (IVI) of faricimab for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).
Patients And Methods: A retrospective study of patients treated for nAMD with one to three IVIs of faricimab from October 2022 to January 2024. Demographic data, treatment history, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), anatomic parameters, and adverse events (AEs) were collected.

Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common type of scoliosis, affecting 1-4% of adolescents. The Scoliosis Research Society-22R (SRS-22R), a health-related quality-of-life instrument for AIS, has allowed orthopedists to measure subjective patient outcomes before and after corrective surgery beyond objective radiographic measurements. However, research has revealed that there is no significant correlation between the correction rate in major radiographic parameters and improvements in patient-reported outcomes (PROs), making it difficult to incorporate PROs into personalized surgical planning.
