Distribution of cup-disc ratio in a Swedish population
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, the distribution of CDR was fairly close to that of other European-derived populations. As expected, OAG increased the risk of having a CDR in the upper quartile. The CDR increased with age.PMID:37920187 | PMC:PMC10619472 | DOI:10.48101/ujms.v128.9805 (Source: Upsala Journal of Medical Sciences)

Persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with B-cell deficiency: a case series of successful antiviral treatment of four patients
We describe a case series of four patients with persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection that all had an underlying B-cell deficiency due to rituximab treatment (in one case in combination with epcoritamab). In all four patients, it was initially difficult to recognize the persistent disease, leading to a duration of illness between 45 and 242 days. Two patients were only positive for SARS-CoV-2 by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the nasopharynx at the beginning of the disease but were later repeatedly negative. However, when bronchoalveolar lavage was performed, a positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR was revealed from the lower airways in b...
