Objective: To evaluate patterns in first-line glaucoma monotherapy in Finland during 1995-2019 based on nationwide survey and register data.

Arq Bras Oftalmol
January 2025
Discipline of Health Management and Economics, Escola Paulista de Medicina, Universidade Federal de São Paulo, São Paulo, SP, Brazil.
Purpose: To evaluate the economic impact of the following initial treatment scenarios for glaucoma on the Brazilian Public Health System (SUS): (1) traditional continuous instillation of hypotensive eye drops and (2) single session of selective laser trabeculoplasty.
Methods: Economic impact was analyzed in three scenarios, from the least to the most conservative, for a hypothetical cohort of 5,000 individuals with open-angle glaucoma. Thereafter, projections were made on the basis of a glaucoma prevalence of 3% in the 2021 Brazilian population size.
The timing and safety of topical timolol treatment for superficial infantile hemangioma: a retrospective cohort study.
Eur J Pediatr

Department of Pediatric Surgery, Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, School of Medicine, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.
Unlabelled: Numerous studies have shown that topical timolol is effective in treating infantile hemangioma (IH) with minimal adverse events. However, consensus is lacking on optimal timing, dosage, frequency, and safety parameters for this treatment. This study aims to explore the timing and safety of topical timolol treatment for superficial IH.

Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, Hershey, PA, 17033, USA.
Background: The role of beta-blockers in severe, traumatic brain injury (TBI) management is debated. Severe TBI may elicit a surge of catecholamines, which has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality. We hypothesize administering propranolol, a non-selective beta-blocker, within 48 h of TBI will reduce patient mortality within 30 days of injury.
