Reaction rate coefficients for electron-transfer processes at the electrode-electrolyte interface are commonly estimated by using the Butler-Volmer equation, but their values are inaccurate beyond a few tenths of volts of overpotential. The Marcus-Hush-Chidsey (MHC) formalism yields correct asymptotic behavior of the rate coefficients vs applied overpotential but has complex dependencies on the redox system's intrinsic parameters, which can be difficult to model or measure. In this work, we bridge the two kinetics formalisms to estimate the reorganization energy, one of the important parameters for the MHC formalism, and investigate its dependence on other intrinsic parameters such as activation barriers, electronic coupling strength, and the density of states of the electrode surface.

Anemia and iron deficiency (ID) are common and significant complications in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) that can affect their health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and outcomes. Current anemia guidelines equate the post-transplant situation with the anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in non-transplanted persons, not acknowledging relevant differences ranging from pathophysiology to clinical manifestation. Nephrologists caring for these patients tend to pay less attention to post-transplant anemia (PTA) and ID than in non-transplanted persons with CKD.

Purpose: To investigate the mechanism, intraoperative characteristics, management, and prevention of incision capsular bag herniation (ICBH), a previously unreported complication during cataract surgery in eyes with lens subluxation.
Methods: A retrospective observational case series was conducted on five male patients who developed ICBH during phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation between January 2019 and December 2024. Among 867 subluxated-lens surgeries performed during this period, the estimated incidence of ICBH was 0.

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.

The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a key measure of renal function, typically estimated using creatinine-based equations. More precise clearance measurements are obtained with radiotracers, such as [Tc]Tc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), and blood samples over several hours. However, standard plasma clearance methods require labor-intensive plasma preparation, limiting efficiency in clinical practice.
