BackgroundTuberculosis is a major contributor to the global burden of disease, causing more than million deaths annually. Given an emphasis on equity in access diagnosis and treatment tuberculosis health targets, evaluations differences by sex are crucial. We aimed assess levels trends tuberculosis, with investigating HIV status for 204 countries territories from 1990 2019.MethodsWe used Bayesian hierarchical Cause Death Ensemble model (CODEm) platform analyse 21 505 site-years vital...
Disability and mortality burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have risen worldwide; however, the NCD among adolescents remains poorly described in EU.Estimates were retrieved from Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019. Causes NCDs analysed at three different levels GBD 2019 hierarchy, for which mortality, years life lost (YLLs), lived with disability (YLDs), disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) extracted. Estimates, 95% uncertainty intervals (UI), EU Member...
Several approaches have been investigated for treating wet age-related macular degeneration (w-AMD), diabetic edema (DME) and retinal vein occlusions (RVOs). The first-line treatment these exudative diseases consists of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agents; however, the high burden percentage 'non responder' patients highlighted need other approaches. Increasing evidence has shown role angiopoietin/Tie (Ang/Tie) pathway in pathogenesis diseases; therefore, novel drugs...
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects millions of people globally, leading to a surge in online research putative diagnoses, causing potential misinformation and anxiety patients their parents. This study explores the efficacy artificial intelligence-derived large language models (LLMs) like addressing AMD patients' questions.ChatGPT 3.5 (2023), Bing AI Google Bard (2023) were adopted as LLMs. Patients' questions subdivided two question categories, (a) general medical advice (b)...
Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial that represents one of the most common ophthalmologic conditions encountered in everyday clinical practice. Traditional diagnostic tests for DED, such as subjective questionnaires, tear film break-up time and Schirmer test, are often associated with poor reproducibility reliability, which make diagnosis, follow-up, management challenging. New advances imaging technologies enable objective reproducible measurements DED parameters, thus making...
Purpose: To determine the incidence, prognostic factors and management of macular edema (ME) associated with silicone oil (SO) tamponade. Methods: This retrospective, comparative, observational study included patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) SO tamponade for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) or persistent full-thickness hole (FTMH). Demographic data, clinical characteristics, OCT findings were analyzed, focusing on presence ME. Propensity score matching was performed...
