Purpose: To report the application of a refined total capsular bag suspension technique for lens subluxation from Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) deficiency.
Observations: A 15-year-old CBS deficiency male patient with a history of intracranial venous thrombosis presented to our clinic due to bilateral vision loss. The patient was treated with lens aspiration, intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, and total capsular bag suspension in both eyes respectively. During the six months postoperative follow-up, the patient exhibited improved visual acuity and minor refractive error.
Conclusions And Importance: The refined total capsular bag suspension technique is recommended for CBS deficiency patients with lens subluxation as a safe and effective surgical approach.

Development of nomograms to predict outcomes for large hepatocellular carcinoma after liver resection.
Hepatol Int

Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, 350025, China.
Article Synopsis
- The study focused on evaluating the outcomes of liver resection in patients with large hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), emphasizing the challenge of surgical treatment and the poor prognosis associated with this condition.
- Researchers analyzed data from 1710 large HCC patients to create predictive models for surgical risk, overall survival, and recurrence-free survival using regression analysis in both training and validation cohorts.
- Key factors identified included platelet count, tumor characteristics, and liver function metrics, and the models demonstrated good predictive capability, with C-index values ranging from 0.675 to 0.773, indicating their effectiveness in forecasting patient outcomes post-surgery.
Nasopharyngeal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus in a rural population, Sierra Leone.
Int J Med Microbiol

Institute of Medical Microbiology, University Hospital Münster, Münster, Germany; Masanga Medical Research Unit, Masanga Hospital, Masanga, Sierra Leone.
Background: Nasopharyngeal colonization with Staphylococcus aureus is a risk factor for subsequent infection. Isolates from colonization can therefore provide important information on virulence factors and antimicrobial resistance when data from clinical isolates are lacking. The aim of this study was to assess colonization rates, resistance patterns and selected virulence factors of S.

Purpose: To identify sex-based differences in pathology, outcomes, and complications after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), and to compare patient-reported outcomes (PRO) scores between males and females.
Methods: The PubMed and MEDLINE databases were searched in September 2024, according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Included studies had data stratified by sex, minimum 2-year patient reported outcome (PRO) scores for hip arthroscopy in the setting of FAI and labral pathology, and a 2014 or later publication date.
Long-term outcomes of scleral fixated black diaphragm intraocular lens in eyes with combined aphakia and aniridia.

Dept of Vitreoretinal Diseases, Sankara Nethralaya, Chennai, India.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the long-term outcomes of scleral fixation of aniridic black diaphragm intraocular lenses (BDIOL) in 38 eyes affected by aniridia and aphakia due to trauma or congenital conditions.
- After an average follow-up of 28 months, there was a significant improvement in visual acuity, and patients reported reduced glare and photophobia, though some experienced complications like elevated intraocular pressure and corneal decompensation.
- The findings suggest that scleral fixation of BDIOL is an effective solution for patients lacking capsular support, providing good vision quality with a low rate of complications, regardless of prior surgical history.
Association of body mass index with clinicopathological features among patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma treated with surgery: a retrospective study.

Department of Urology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, 200433, China.
To investigate the potential association between body mass index (BMI) and the clinicopathological features of patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). We retrospectively analyzed data from 2541 patients who underwent partial or radical nephrectomy for renal masses between 2013 and 2023 in a single institution. Patients were divided into normal-weight, overweight, and obese groups based on the Chinese BMI classification.
