Introduction: This study evaluated the clinical outcomes of simultaneous implantable collamer lens (ICL) removal and phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in a multicenter study.
Methods: We retrospectively investigated 83 eyes of 72 patients requiring ICL extraction and cataract surgery at five institutions. Preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively, we determined visual acuity (logMAR), spherical equivalent refraction, and endothelial cell density (ECD), in addition to the preoperative backgrounds and the postoperative complications.
Results: The patients' age at the time of cataract surgery was 49.8 ± 6.8 years, and the axial length was 28.49 ± 1.97 mm. The most prevalent type of cataract was anterior subcapsular cataract, followed by nuclear and cortical cataract. Uncorrected and corrected visual acuities significantly improved to 0.09 ± 0.30 and - 0.12 ± 0.12 logMAR, respectively (p < 0.001). Sixty-three (76%) and 78 (94%) eyes were within ± 0.5 D and 1.0 D, respectively, of the targeted correction. The mean percentage of ECD loss was 1.3 ± 11.3%. No vision-threatening complications were observed in any case.
Conclusions: Our multicenter study showed that simultaneous ICL removal and phacoemulsification with IOL implantation is a safe, effective, and predictable procedure, with no significant complications, making it a feasible option for ICL-implanted eyes developing cataracts.

Parent-led cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an efficient, promising form of therapy that may be well suited for autistic youth with anxiety disorders. A recent clinical trial found that parent-led CBT - in which parents led their child through a guided CBT workbook with varying degrees of therapist support - was efficacious for reducing anxiety and associated functional impairment. While such findings demonstrate promise for future intervention development and dissemination efforts with this population, more work is needed to elucidate clinical factors that impact response to treatment as well as drop-out.

Introduction: With reports of expanding epidemiology of blastomycosis across the United States, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and outcomes associated with blastomycosis in solid organ transplant (SOT) and hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective case series of adult SOT and HCT recipients at a tertiary care medical center between January 1, 2005 and September 30, 2023. Cases were defined as culture-proven blastomycosis.

Objective: To evaluate the 36-month clinical performance of Single Bond Universal Adhesive (SBU; 3M ESPE, Germany) in non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) using different modes of adhesion according to the FDI criteria. The primary outcome was the retention loss of the restorations, while the secondary outcomes included marginal staining, marginal adaptation, post-operative sensitivity and tooth vitality, recurrence of caries erosion and abfraction, and tooth integrity, all evaluated according to the FDI criteria.
Materials And Methods: In this study, the SBU Adhesive was applied to 246 NCCLs of 25 patients using different modes of adhesion: Self-etch (SE), selective-enamel-etching (SLE), and etch-and-rinse (ER).
