Purpose: To evaluate the rotational stability and capsular bag performance of a blue light-absorbing hydrophobic acrylic open-loop single-piece intraocular lens (IOL) with a blast-finished anchor wing haptic design during the first 6 postoperative months.
Methods: In this prospective clinical study, patients with age-related cataract and potential postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) of 0.2 logMAR or better were included. The patients received a non-toric hydrophobic acrylic single-piece IOL with an axis mark (YST0.00; Nidek Co. Ltd, Japan). Surgeries were video-taped. Retroillumination images were acquired 1 h, 1 week and 6 months postoperatively. Rotational stability was assessed by precise image overlay. At 6 months, Purkinje meter measurements were performed to evaluate tilt and decentration.
Results: In total, 100 eyes of 77 patients were included in the analysis. Mean absolute rotation was 2.1 ± 1.7° (median 1.7, range: 0-7.9) at 6 months (1 h - 6 months postoperatively). IOL rotation was ≤3° and ≤6° in 74 (74%) and 98 (98%) eyes, respectively. Mean absolute IOL rotation from the end of surgery to 6 months was 2.5 ± 2.2° (median 2.3, range: 0-15.6; n = 78). Mean tilt (pupillary axis) and decentration were 4.1 ± 1.9° (median 4.0, range: 0.5-8.2) and 0.35 ± 0.17 mm (median 0.32, range: 0.06-0.91) respectively (n = 84). Postoperatively, 98 (98%) eyes achieved a CDVA of 0.2 logMAR or better, 95 (95%) of ≤0.1 and 81 (81%) of ≤0.0.
Conclusions: This hydrophobic acrylic single-piece IOL showed an excellent rotational stability and capsular bag position with low tilt and decentration values.

stabilization of known, but solution unstable, methylidene complex [Ir(Bu-PONOP)(=CH)][BAr ] allows single-crystal to single-crystal solid/gas reactivity associated with the {Ir=CH} group to be studied. Addition of H results in [Ir(Bu-PONOP)(H)][BAr ]; exposure to CO forms iridium(I) carbonyl [Ir(Bu-PONOP)(CO)][BAr ], and reaction with NH gas results in the formation of methylamine complex [(Bu-PONOP)Ir(NHMe)][BAr ] via an aminocarbene intermediate. Periodic density functional theory and electronic structure analyses confirm the Ir=CH bond character but with a very low barrier to rotation around the Ir=CH bond.

Purpose: To determine if the fatty infiltration of rotator cuff muscles, as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) preoperatively and assessed using the Goutallier Fatty Degeneration Index (GFDI), can predict early post-operative shoulder stiffness (POSS) following rotator cuff repair (RCR).
Methods: This retrospective longitudinal cohort study included patients who underwent primary RCR, had available medical records, and underwent MRI before RCR between November 2012 and July 2022. Patients were excluded based on the following criteria: (1) preoperative shoulder stiffness, (2) additional procedures (e.

The unique saddle articulation of the trapeziometacarpal joint allows for a wide range of motion necessary for routine function of the thumb. Inherently unstable characteristics of the joint can lead painful instability. In this study, we modified a surgical dorsal ligament reconstruction technique for restoring trapeziometacarpal joint stability.

Purpose: To compare the precision of the arithmetic mean of surgically induced astigmatism (M-SIA) and the centroid of surgically induced astigmatism (C-SIA) in estimating SIA when predicting the power and axis of toric IOLs under different circumstances.
Methods: 120 eyes of 99 patients undergoing toric IOL replacement in a simple cataract surgery were included in the retrospective study. The predicted position of toric IOL was calculated by Z Calc online calculator and Barrett Toric Calculator with M-SIA (0.
