Preclinical studies point to the KCNQ2/3 potassium channel as a novel target for treatment of depression and anhedonia, reduced ability experience pleasure. The authors conducted first randomized placebo-controlled trial testing effect positive modulator ezogabine on reward circuit activity clinical outcomes in patients with depression.Depressed individuals (N=45) elevated levels anhedonia were assigned 5-week period (900 mg/day; N=21) or placebo (N=24). Participants underwent functional MRI...
A 49-year-old woman developed acute visual loss in the right eye following bilateral cosmetic platelet-rich plasma injections to rhytids glabellar region. External exam showed skin necrosis region over and restricted ocular motility. Dilated fundus was significant for ophthalmic artery occlusion. Imaging revealed extraocular muscle ischemia optic nerve infarction, along with frontal, parietal, occipital lobe infarction. Work-up thromboembolic vascular etiologies were negative. To our...
The aim of this study was to prospectively compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) vs micropulse (MLT) in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) open-angle glaucoma patients.In all, 38 patients were randomized 360° MLT 31 SLT. IOP measured at intervals 1 hour 1, 1-6, 6-12, 6-24, 24-36, 36-52 weeks. Patients completed a survey week after procedure. with end-stage, neovascular, uveitic, or angle-closure excluded. Treatment response defined as an...
To compare the safety and efficacy of Kahook Dual Blade (KDB) versus Trabectome with cataract surgery in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) medications used by patients glaucoma.Retrospective chart review comparing eyes after KDB or at 2 academic centers. Surgical success was defined as IOP <21 mmHg ≥20% reduction post-operative month 12 (POM12). Changes IOP, number glaucoma medications, adverse events were assessed.Ninety group 125 included. Mean changes POM12 -1.9 ± 4.9 (11.2%, P = 0.002)...

This study evaluated US resident and fellow glaucoma surgical experience over a 7- 8-year period, respectively.US ophthalmology case logs from 2009 to 2016 2008 were reviewed. The number of total, average, median, minimum cases, along with percentile data for filtering surgery, shunting novel procedures analyzed year-to-year trends.Among residents training 2016, there was decline in the average primary surgeries by 20%, 6.0±5.0 4.8±4.0 concurrent increase drainage implant (GDI) 40%, 4.5±4.0...
Precis: We retrospectively reviewed records of patients prescribed latanoprostene bunod 0.024% (LBN) to assess its efficacy and safety in a real-world clinical setting. LBN was efficacious lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) had favorable profile. Purpose: The aim this study evaluate the usage LBN, first topical nitric oxide-donating prostaglandin analog (PGA) for reducing IOP, practice. Patients Methods: Retrospective review identified by 5 glaucoma specialists at an academic center from...
Cyclodialysis cleft is a rare clinical finding and therefore, reports on surgical repair techniques in the literature are limited. Additionally, hypotony can make technically challenging. We share novel, simple approach to management of case chronic traumatic cyclodialysis with successful outcome.
