Article Synopsis
- Pediatric cataracts are a major preventable cause of childhood blindness, and early intervention is crucial for improving visual outcomes and rehabilitation.
- This study analyzed medical records to assess the time from initial consult to cataract surgery and how delays affected visual results, focusing on a range of patients from 2015 to 2022.
- Results showed that, despite quicker surgeries during the pandemic, overall waiting times remained the same, and no significant differences were found in visual outcomes between those who had surgery immediately versus those who experienced delays.
A disproportionality analysis of low molecular weight heparin in the overall population and in pregnancy women using the FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database.

Foshan Clinical Medical School of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Foshan, Guangdong, China.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates adverse events (AEs) linked to low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), particularly focusing on its use in the general population and pregnant women, using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System.
- Various analytical methods were utilized, including reporting odds ratios and Bayesian approaches, to identify significant AE signals associated with LMWH.
- Key findings revealed several notable AEs for both the overall population (e.g., anti factor X antibody positive) and pregnant women (e.g., sternal fracture), highlighting the need for more attention to the adverse effects of LMWH in clinical settings.

The Western Pacific Region's pursuit of measles elimination has seen significant progress and setbacks. Mongolia and Cambodia were the first two middle-income countries in the Western Pacific to be verified as having eliminated measles by the Western Pacific Regional Verification Commission for Measles and Rubella Elimination, in March 2014 and 2015, respectively. However, both countries experienced large-scale or prolonged importation-related measles outbreaks shortly afterwards, leading to the re-establishment of endemic transmission.
