Purpose: Growing interest in microperimetry (MP) or fundus-controlled perimetry (FCP) as targeted psychometric testing method in geographic atrophy (GA) is warranted due to the disease subclinical/extra-foveal appearance or preexisting foveal loss with visual acuity becoming unreliable. We provide comprehensive pointwise test-retest repeatability reference values on the most widely used MP devices and combine them with targeted testing in areas of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) as well as photoreceptor (PR) integrity loss, guiding the interpretation of sensitivity loss during the long-term follow-up of GA patients.
Design: Prospective reliability study METHODS: Patients with GA underwent consecutive testing on CenterVue (iCare) MAIA and NIDEK MP3 devices.

Herein, we disclose a readily available phenothiazine derivative as an organocatalyst, which upon excitation with 371 nm light acquires a strongly reducing power and serves to induce the radical cascade difluoromethylation/cyclization reaction of -homoallylacetohydrazides. A variety of CFCOR-tetrahydropyridazines have been obtained in moderate to excellent yields. This catalytic platform proceeds under metal-free conditions with a wide substrate scope and broad functional group compatibility, which unlocks the new reactivity of phenothiazine derivatives and adds significant synthetic value to -heterocycles.

Severe acute respiratory infections, such as community-acquired pneumonia, hospital-acquired pneumonia, and ventilator-associated pneumonia, constitute frequent and lethal pulmonary infections in the intensive care unit (ICU). Despite optimal management with early appropriate empiric antimicrobial therapy and adequate supportive care, mortality remains high, in part attributable to the aging, growing number of comorbidities, and rising rates of multidrug resistance pathogens. Biomarkers have the potential to offer additional information that may further improve the management and outcome of pulmonary infections.

Objective: To determine the effects of varying positive end-expiratory pressures (PEEPs) on right ventricular function, hemodynamics, oxygenation, and the incidence of acute cor pulmonale (ACP) in patients with moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Methods: This prospective paired-design study involved patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS in the ICU. Participants received lung-protective ventilation and hemodynamic monitoring.
