These results support the environmental toxic etiology of retinal and brain pathology in ALS/PDC.
ALS/PDC-associated retinal and cerebellar dysplasia could arise from in utero exposure to methylazoxymethanol, the genotoxic metabolite of cycasin that results from maternal ingestion of this azoxyglucoside. These results support the environmental toxic etiology of retinal and brain pathology in ALS/PDC.
An immediate neuroimaging investigation in patients with isolated oculomotor nerve palsy (ONP) remains controversial. We aimed to develop a clinical prediction score to determine whether or not acquired isolated ONP patients require prompt imaging.

A retrospective study was performed. Demographic data and clinical presentations were collected to determine predictive factors favored for early brain imaging using multivariate logistic regression analysis.

Ninety-seven eyes of 96 patients diagnosed with isolated ONP were included. Forty-one eyes (42.3%) were caused by ischemia, while the other 56 eyes (57.7%) were caused by non-ischemic etiologies, namely aneurysm (n = 22), trauma (n = 18), inflammation (n = 5), tumor (n = 4), and others (n = 7). Eighty-two eyes (84.5%) had undergone neuroimaging study due to initially suspected non-ischemic causes. Only 36 (43.9%) revealed concordant diagnosis. The potential clinical predictors favored for neuroimaging using multivariate logistic regression analysis were age 10‒50 years (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 9.01, 95% CI 1.25‒64.8), age 51‒70 years (aOR 1.71, 95% CI 0.46‒6.35), history of head trauma (aOR 7.14, 95% CI 1.19‒42.9), absence of vascular risk factors (aOR 3.85, 95% CI 1.23‒12.1), and poor pupillary response (aOR 6.96, 95% CI 1.99‒24.3). The predictor scores with an area under the ROC curve of 0.852 were 4, 1, 4, 3, and 4, respectively. The optimum cut-point was 3 for a sensitivity of 96% and specificity of 44%.

Patients with acquired isolated ONP should be considered early neuroimaging studies when they are younger than 50 years old, have a history of head trauma, have no history of vascular risk factors, or have poor pupillary reaction.

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) has emerged as a novel, fast, safe and non-invasive imaging technique of analyzing the retinal and choroidal microvasculature in vivo. OCT-A captures multiple sequential B-scans performed repeatedly over a specific retinal area at high speed, thus enabling the composition of a vascular map with areas of contrast change (high flow zones) and areas of steady contrast (slow or no flow zones). It therefore provides unique insight into the exact retinal or choroidal layer and location at which abnormal blood flow develops. OCTA has evolved into a useful tool for understanding a number of retinal pathologies such as diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, central serous chorioretinopathy, vascular occlusions, macular telangiectasia and choroidal neovascular membranes of other causes. OCT-A technology is also increasingly being used in the evaluation of optic disc perfusion and has been suggested as a valuable tool in the early detection of glaucomatits own limitations, namely its lack of wide-field view of the peripheral retina and the inaccurate interpretation due to motion artifacts in uncooperative groups of patients (e.g. children). Larger prospective longitudinal studies will need to be conducted in order to eliminate the aforementioned limitations.
Understanding the demographic features of blood donors is important for identifying the donor structure and guiding the recruitment and retention strategies of donors. This study was aimed to determine the demographic characteristics of blood donors, the types of donation drives, and the frequency and reasons for pre-donation deferral in our population.

This cross-sectional study included data analysis of all prospective blood donors presenting themselves for donation at the Blood Bank of the King Fahad Military Medical Complex, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia between January 2010 and December 2018. Eligibility of blood donation was assessed using a standardized history questionnaire, physical examination, hemoglobin estimation, pulse rate, blood pressure, and temperature. The questionnaire included the demographic features of the donor such as age, gender, and the reason for donation and other specific risk factors that potentially affect the safety of the donor or the recipient. Data analyzed using the analysis ocompared to other countries; the causes being similar to those detected in other developed countries. Simple descriptive statistics has shown no marked difference was noted over the 9 years of the study in neither the profile of blood donors nor the cause for temporary deferral of prospective blood donors.
A profile of blood donors consisting mainly of young male citizens who mostly donated for family replacement was detected. Deferral rate was found to be average when compared to other countries; the causes being similar to those detected in other developed countries. Acetohydroxamic nmr Simple descriptive statistics has shown no marked difference was noted over the 9 years of the study in neither the profile of blood donors nor the cause for temporary deferral of prospective blood donors.
The effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors have been reported to be linked with immune-related adverse events (irAEs). In patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer, who tested positive for programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor can be used as a treatment, and it was found to improve overall survival. However, there are only a few reports on the relationship between the therapeutic effects of pembrolizumab in patients with lung cancer and the irAEs of pembrolizumab. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between immune-related adverse events and the effects of pembrolizumab monotherapy in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer.

From February 2017 to August 2019, we conducted a retrospective analysis of the effects of pembrolizumab treatment and immune-related adverse events in 94 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer treated with pembrolizumab only.

In 63 cases, irAEs were observed. The most common irAE was rash. PD-L1 positivity ≥ 50% tended to cause irAEs.
