Purpose: Comparing IOL power calculation formulas in long eyes (AL≥26.00 mm) to find the best axial length (AL) adjustment/IOL power calculation formula combination.
Design: Retrospective, comparative, case-series.
Participants: Patients with long eyes that underwent cataract surgery.
Methods: five-hundred-fifty-four eyes of 554 patients were examined before and after standard phacoemulsification without complications. Eyes were subdivided in 3 groups according to AL: 26.00≤AL<28.00 mm, 28.00≤AL<30.00 mm, AL≥30.00 mm. Eight formulas that do not require anterior chamber depth (ACD) were evaluated: Barrett Universal II (BUII), Emmetropia Verifying Optical (EVO) 2.0, Ladas Super Formula (LSF), Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, SRKT, T2 and T2.2. The lens constant of ULIB database and IOLCon database were used. Each formula was analyzed by using uncorrected AL (ALu) and following AL adjustments: Wang-Koch 1 (wk1), wk2, wk polinomial (wk-pol), estimated Cooke modified axial length (CMALe) and ALc correcting factor.
Main Outcome Measures: Mean absolute error (MAE), median absolute error (MedAE) and percentage of eyes within ±0.50 and ± 1.00 diopters (D) of prediction error.
Results: T2-ALu gave best outcome when 26.00 mm ≤ AL<28.00 mm. LSF-ALu, BUII-ALu, EVO 2.0-ALu, Holladay 1-wk-pol and T2.2-CMALe represented valid alternatives. EVO 2.0-ALc gave best outcomes when 28.00 mm ≤ AL<30.00 mm. Other thick-lens or hybrid artificial-intelligence-vergence based formulas (BUII-ALu, LSF-CMALe) and Holladay 1-wk2 demonstrated greater reliability compared to thin lens-based formulas. EVO 2.0-CMALe gave best outcomes when AL≥30.00 mm. Holladay 1-wk-pol e T2.2-wk1 represented valid alternatives (all p < 0.050). LSF could fail in 50 % of cases without ACD when AL≥30.00 mm.
Conclusions: Choosing the best AL adjustment/IOL power calculation formula combination for each AL subrange, can improve refractive outcomes in patients with long eyes that undergo cataract surgery.

Background: Stroke has devastating consequences for survivors. Hypertension is the most important modifiable risk factor, and its management largely takes place in primary care. However, most stroke-based research does not occur in this setting.

Background: Volume alterations in the parietal subregion have received less attention in Alzheimer's disease (AD), and their role in predicting conversion of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD and cognitively normal (CN) to MCI remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to assess the volumetric variation of the parietal subregion at different cognitive stages in AD and to determine the role of parietal subregions in CN and MCI conversion.
Methods: We included 662 participants from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database, including 228 CN, 221 early MCI (EMCI), 112 late MCI (LMCI), and 101 AD participants.
The integration of large-scale power electronic equipment has intensified harmonic issues in power systems. Accurate harmonic models are fundamental for evaluating and mitigating harmonic problems, but existing models still exhibit deficiencies in harmonic mechanism, model complexity and accuracy. This work proposes a calculation method of crossed frequency admittance matrix (CFAM) analytical model based on piecewise linearization, aiming to achieve accurate modeling of phase-controlled power electronic harmonic sources.

Accurately measuring the thickness of the oxide film that accumulates on nuclear fuel assemblies is critical for maintaining nuclear power plant safety. Oxide film thickness typically ranges from a few micrometers to several tens of micrometers, necessitating a high-precision measurement system. Eddy current testing (ECT) is commonly employed during poolside inspections due to its simplicity and ease of on-site implementation.
