Article Synopsis
- The study examines the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in adults experiencing cardiogenic shock after heart surgery, noting significant in-hospital mortality rates (60.5%).
- Conducted across 34 centers from 2000 to 2020, the research analyzes patient characteristics and factors affecting both in-hospital and long-term survival.
- Despite high initial mortality, approximately 66% of hospital survivors can expect to live for a decade post-discharge, with age and certain postoperative complications influencing long-term outcomes.

Ophthalmology Department, SOD Ophthalmology, AOU Careggi Florence, Florence, Italy.
Prcis: XEN45 implant was an effective and safe procedure in primary open angle glaucoma (OAG) eyes with high myopia. Although the hypotony incidence rate was relatively high, it resolved with medical therapy and was of short duration.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the XEN45 stent in eyes with OAG and high myopia.

Background: The rapid spread of COVID-19 worldwide has impo-sed the need to identify a test that quickly recognizes affected subjects, both symptomatic and asymptomatic. The most reliable option has been proven to be the RT-PCR, which allows to detect virus RNA on a specimen from a high viral load site, such as nasopharynx. Nasopha-ryngeal sample collection is possible by means of a nasopharyngeal swab (NPS) and is a practical and relatively non-invasive technique, but rather bothersome for the recipient.

Objective: To evaluate the long-term effects of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (LRYGB) on gastroesophageal function.
Background: LRYGB is considered the weight loss procedure of choice for obese patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). However, long-term instrumental evaluations of GERD after LRYGB are not available.

Both the correct position of the patient's head and a standard system for the acquisition of images are essential for objective evaluation of the facial profile and the skull, and for longitudinal superimposition. The natural position of the head was introduced into orthodontics in the late 1950s, and is used as a postural basis for craniocervical and craniofacial morphological analysis. It can also have a role in the planning of the surgical correction of craniomaxillofacial deformities.
