Article Abstract
This case report describes a vasoproliferative tumor in a 16-year-old male patient with Coats' disease, treated with laser photocoagulation, cryoablation, and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injections therapies, that developed an epiretinal membrane as a complication. The surgical treatment in association with the retinal laser treatment greatly improved visual acuity. At 8 months follow-up from surgery, visual acuity had significantly improved, and macular anatomy recovered. Vasoproliferative tumors may occur in patients with Coats' disease, and in such a clinical scenario, a multiple therapeutical approach should be considered, in order to reach the best anatomical and functional outcome for the patient.

Background: Post-exercise oxygen uptake recovery (VORec) is slow in advanced heart failure. We sought to establish easily derived VORec measures and evaluate their cardiospecificity and prognostic relevance in patients with dyspnea on exertion. We further sought to determine VORec modifiability proportional to changes in cardiac function with disease-specific treatment of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Idiopathic macular telangiectasia (MacTel II) is a degenerative disorder of the Müller cells, characterised by pigment proliferation and retinal degeneration. We present a case of an elderly woman with bilateral asymmetric loss of vision. Fundus examination in the right eye revealed profuse pigment proliferation at the macula and pigment plaques temporal to the macula in the left eye, with bilateral retinal greying and right-angled venules.

Background: Peanut seeds exhibit a high susceptibility to infection by Aspergillus flavus (A. flavus) post-harvest, which significantly limits their storage and marketability. The peanut seed coat acts as a crucial barrier against A.

Objectives: To evaluate the long-term progression of macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel) using a standardized classification system and to assess the incidence, progression, and management strategies of complications such as macular neovascularization (MNV) and macular hole (MH).
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study analyzed the medical records of patients diagnosed with MacTel at a tertiary referral center in Türkiye from January 2004 to February 2025. Patients with a minimum follow-up of 3 years and no confounding macular pathologies were included.

Knee osteoarthritis (OA), a degenerative joint disease, is increasingly prevalent worldwide and often results from a meniscal deterioration that leads to meniscus removal. Replacing the damaged meniscus with a non-biodegradable prosthesis offers an innovative solution to prevent OA progression, particularly in older patients. However, the long-term use of anti-inflammatory drugs for pain relief and prosthesis integration can cause severe off-target side effects.
