Chronic hypotony and uveitis managed with pars plana vitrectomy, silicone oil tamponade, and permanent keratoprosthesis.

Purpose: We report a case of silicone oil placement after Boston Type 1 keratoprosthesis implantation for improvement and maintenance of intraocular pressure in a patient with chronic hypotony secondary to chronic uveitis.
Methods: Observational case report.
Results: A 54-year-old female with a history of bilateral chronic panuveitis and subsequent hypotony presented with progressive corneal decompensation and band keratopathy in her better-seeing left eye. Her CDVA in her left eye declined from count fingers at 3' to hand motion. In an effort to clear the visual axis and stabilize intraocular pressure, implantation of a Boston Type 1 Keratoprosthesis combined with pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil injection was performed. Post operatively, the intraocular pressure improved to the mid-teens and vision improved to count fingers at 4'with a follow-up of 2 years.
Conclusion: Pars plana vitrectomy and injection of silicone oil after placement of a Boston Type 1 keratoprosthesis can successfully improve and maintain intraocular pressure in eyes affected by chronic uveitis with ciliary body atrophy and chronic hypotony. This strategy effectively reverses such problems as hypotony maculopathy, disk swelling, scleral infolding, and corneal failure.

Managing freshwater invasive mussel biofouling: Insights into byssal adhesion on underwater surfaces.
J Environ Manage

Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100085, China; University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100049, China. Electronic address:
Biofouling caused by mussel byssus adhesion to underwater surfaces poses significant ecological and economic challenges in freshwater ecosystems. However, effective management remains difficult due to limited understanding of how material properties influence byssus adhesion and the underlying mechanisms. In this study, we used the invasive golden mussel (Limnoperna fortunei) as a model fouling species to assess byssus adhesion on commonly used engineering materials, natural substrates, polymers, and marine antifouling materials.

Purpose: Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) is an extremely rare disease with an incidence of one in 10,000 live births. Increasing axial length due to PCG predisposes to retinal thinning and retinal detachment (RD). The present study aims to determine the long-term surgical outcomes of pediatric RD associated with PCG.

Greigite (FeS), a ferrimagnetic sulfide mineral with a spinel structure analogous to FeO, was employed in magnetorheological (MR) fluids. FeS nanoparticles were synthesized via a solution process, with magnetic properties verified through vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). The MR performance and suspension stability were assessed using a rotational rheometer and Turbiscan, and the results were compared to those of FeO-based suspensions.

Slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPSs), a class of functional bioinspired surface, have earned a position at the forefront of many areas such as anticorrosion, anti-icing, antifogging, antibacterial, anticontaminant, microflow control, and drag reduction. However, the fast self-replenishing ability of SLIPS remains extremely challenging due to limited lubricant storage capacity or microstructure impeding fluid flow. Herein, a superhydrophobic surface was prepared by spraying the sepiolite/zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 hybrid material with a layered three-dimensional (3D) fibrous porous network structure on the magnesium (Mg) alloy surface.

Sawdust is a by-product of wood processing and it was rapidly humified with KSO under alkaline-thermal synergistic activation to produce a fulvic-like-acid (FLA) organic fertilizer (SFOF) in this study. The optimum conditions were KSO: KOH mass ratio of 1:2 and 150℃, meanwhile FLA yield could reach 180.3 mg/g in 2 h.
