Therapeutic effect of suprachoroidal viscoelastic injection combined with 532 laser photocoagulation in treating rhegmatogenous retinal detachment by Weiguo Ma, Zengxi Wang, Zhen Li, Weining Rong, Qianwei Cui, Xuejun Hu

“…Conclusion In patients with RRD characterized by smaller retinal tears, more localized retinal detachment, and a proliferative vitreoretinopathy grade of ≤ C1, treatment incorporating suprachoroidal viscoelastic injection and 532-nm laser photocoagulation to seal the tears resulted in good postoperative recovery, with all patients achieving favorable visual acuity. However, due to the retrospective, non-comparative design without a control group, it is difficult to fully evaluate the relative efficacy of this treatment compared to other methods. …”

Differences between echocardiography and cardiac nuclear magnetic resonance parameters in children with bicuspid aortic valve-related aortopathy by Stasa Krasic, Stasa Krasic, Boris Zec, Vesna Topic, Sasa Popovic, Dejan Nesic, Marija Zdravkovic, Vladislav Vukomanovic, Vladislav Vukomanovic

“…In patients with associated coarctation, the development of aortopathy occurred less frequently than those without coarctation (7/39 vs. 32/39; p = 0.003). The Bland-Altman method, a specific type of scatterplot that is used to visualize the results of comparing two measures, demonstrated the existence of agreement between the two methods, and a level of agreement between the methods of 95% was demonstrated.ConclusionOur study indicated significant differences in the measured BAV morphotype and dysfunction when comparing the two diagnostic methods. …”
