Melamine (MEL) and cyanuric acid (CYA) are contaminants that can enter the human body through dietary sources, raising significant toxicological concerns, particularly for infants. MEL undergoes minimal biotransformation in the human body. While breast milk is widely recognized as the optimal source of nutrition for infants, it may also serve as a potential route for the transmission of contaminants.

Despite the growing emphasis on social sustainability in urban design, limited research has examined how spatial configurations influence socio-behavioural patterns across culturally distinct urban squares. This study addresses this gap by investigating how the spatial configuration of public squares interacts with pedestrian social behaviours in four cities in Iran, Spain, Italy, and Australia. Guided by theories of space syntax and social behaviour frameworks, a unique mixed-method approach was adopted, combining spatial configuration analysis, behavioural mapping, and people-tracing, coupled with agent-based simulations.

Purpose: To evaluate the impact of inadvertent intraoperative microperforation of the trabeculo-Descemet's membrane (TDM) on postoperative outcomes in cases with cataract and either primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEXG) during combined phacoemulsification and deep sclerectomy (PDS).

Methods: In this prospective case-control study, 73 eyes of 73 patients with cataract and POAG/PEXG who underwent PDS were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of inadvertent intraoperative TDM microperforation.
