Purpose This study aims to compare the initial three-month outcomes of a single-center experience with small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) for correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism using the VisuMax 500 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany) versus the VisuMax 800 (SMILE Pro®; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany). This experience is compared to the US Food and Drug Administration approval studies and published literature. Patients and methods The initial 45 eyes (23 patients) that underwent SMILE with the VisuMax 500 in 2018 were compared with the initial 42 eyes (21 patients) that underwent SMILE Pro® with the VisuMax 800 in 2024.

Background: The treatment of critically ill patients in intensive care units is becoming increasingly complex. For example, organ transplants are regularly carried out, the recipients are seriously ill, and the postoperative course can be complicated. This is why organ replacement and hemadsorption procedures are becoming increasingly important.

Background: Liver transplantation is the definitive treatment for end-stage liver disease and some cancers. The use of livers from donors following pre-donation cardiac arrest (PDCA), especially with prolonged downtime duration, has been limited outside of the US due to fears over inferior outcomes from ischemic injury. However, PDCA may induce ischemic preconditioning, paradoxically improving post-transplant outcomes.

Background: A comprehensive knowledge of renal vasculature is essential to diagnose and carry out safe clinical interventions accurately. Anatomic variations in renal vessels can present procedural challenges in surgeries such as nephrectomy, transplants, and endovascular interventions.

Methods: In the present retrospective study, we analyzed the distribution patterns of the renal vascular variants and measurements of length and diameter in computed tomography angiographies (CTAs).

Purpose: Living donor kidney transplantation is a critical strategy to address the growing burden of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in Malaysia. Whilst living donation is generally safe, concerns remain regarding long-term donor outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate renal function and morbidity changes in living kidney donors 1 year post-donation, and to identify predictors of impaired kidney function.
