Background: Portable sphero-cylinder refraction is useful for remote medical missions and self-checking. A novel, inexpensive, handheld optical scope with an internal vision chart and adjustable diopter lens, called the Moptim MRT-200, was therefore validated.
Methods: Young, capable patients from a pediatric eye practice had dry refraction estimates with the Moptim MRT-200, Adaptica 2WIN photoscreener, and Monocular Retinomax compared with actual refined retinoscopy.

Introduction In select tumor sites, symptom palliation and local control can be improved through delivering higher biological equivalent doses (BED) of radiotherapy. However, not all patients are suitable candidates for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). The 30 Grays in five fractions (30/5) regimen is a conformal, hypofractionated regimen that offers a higher BED compared to conventional palliative radiotherapy.

As medical education continues to be influenced by complexity, unpredictability, and change, traditional models of thinking often don't help educators and learners in confronting the real issues and challenges. Quantum thinking can serve as a meaningful way to respond to the ever-changing demands of medical education. Quantum thinking does not work on a theoretical model rather as a disposition of thinking and action, which is supported through curiosity, flexibility, and reflective practice.

Iron is an essential trace element for the human body, but having too much or too little of it can cause various biological issues. When ferrous ions react with hydrogen peroxide, they create highly reactive and soluble hydroxyl radicals that can damage cells through oxidation. This reaction, known as the Fenton reaction, can cause lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.
