We present a case of severe esotropia and hypertropia in a monocular high myope with an inferolateral staphyloma. Surgery was undertaken to secure the inferior rectus to the lateral rectus via a modified partial Jensen technique, along with medial rectus recession successfully improving head and eye positions and ductions.

BACKGROUND A tooth preparation's clinical requirements and geometric configurations should take precedence over material characteristics when advocating for putty reline impression techniques for permanent restorations, since they require a technically sensitive spacer for light body elastomer. We evaluated the linear dimensional accuracy of vinyl polysiloxane-based putty reline impressions with different spacer acquisition techniques in short-span and long-span fixed partial dentures (FPD). MATERIAL AND METHODS A typodont tooth set simulated a 3-unit (short-span) and a 5-unit (long-span) FPD.

VEXAS syndrome is a haemato-inflammatory disease caused by somatic UBA1 mutations and characterized by cytoplasmic vacuoles in myeloid and erythroid precursor cells. Although there is currently no standard treatment algorithm for VEXAS, patients are generally treated with anti-inflammatory therapies focused on symptom management, with only partial effectiveness. Hypomethylating agents (HMA) have shown promise in VEXAS patients with concomitant myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), while the efficacy of HMA in VEXAS patients without MDS is largely unknown.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep disorder marked by repeated episodes of partial or complete upper airway obstruction during sleep, which leads to intermittent hypoxia and fragmented sleep. These disruptions negatively impact cardiovascular health, metabolic function, and overall quality of life. Obesity is a major modifiable risk factor for OSA, as it contributes to both anatomical and physiological mechanisms that increase the likelihood of airway collapse during sleep.

Lumefantrine (LMF) is a low-solubility antimalarial drug that cures acute, uncomplicated malaria. It exerts its pharmacological effects against erythrocytic stages of spp. and prevents malaria pathogens from producing nucleic acid and protein, thereby eliminating the parasites.

Objective: Although the combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab (A+B) shows promise for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), its response rate is still inadequate. Previous studies indicate that the integration of FOLFOX-based hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is advantageous for the management of HCC. This meta-analysis aims to assess the safety and efficacy of the A+B+TACE or HAIC therapy protocol in patients with advanced HCC.
