Aim. Evaluation of the visual and functional results of bilateral implantation of the diffractive trifocal intraocular lens (IOL), the incidence of adverse optical phenomena and the degree of patient satisfaction. Methods. A prospective, open-label study included 82 patients (164 eyes) with presbyopia who underwent cataract phacoemulsification (n = 128) or refractive lensectomy (n = 36) with bilateral implantation of a new multifocal IOL AT LISA tri 839MP. The mean age of the patients was 61.2 ± 11.8 (32-84) years. The period of observation of patients was from 6 to 36 (18.3 ± 3.9) months. Results. After 1 year of follow-up, the increase in UCNVA was observed from 0.19 ± 0.17 to 0.89 ± 0.21, UCIVA from 0.18 ± 0.20 to 0.78 ± 0.17, UCDVA from 0.26 ± 0, 23 to 0.9 ± 0.12 (p

In 88.9% of a group of 18 patients with rheumatoid arthritis participating in an open-label study with fenoprofen calcium (Nalfon), there was observed a mean litre decrease in level of rheumatoid factor as compared to baseline levels. In follow-up, three months to one year later, a uniform litre increase above the mean level of the study period had occurred. In all cases the titre returned to baseline levels or higher.

The aim of this single-center, open-label, non-controlled randomized study was to evaluate which formulation of vitamin D between cholecalciferol and calcifediol is most effective in the treatment of hypovitaminosis D in older adults. Demographic characteristics, clinical history and comprehensive geriatric assessment were recorded at admission. Eligible patients randomly received an equivalent vitamin D supplement either with cholecalciferol or calcifediol from hospital admission to three months after discharge. Among the 140 older patients included (mean age 83±6.6, 57.8% females), 69 received cholecalciferol and 71 calcifediol. The mean plasma values of 25OH-Vitamin D3 found at the enrollment were 16.8 ± 9.9 ng/mL in patients receiving cholecalciferol and 18.8 ± 13.3 ng/mL in those treated with calcifediol (p =0.31). At the 3-month follow up, the mean concentration of 25OH-Vitamin D3 was significantly higher in patients treated with calcifediol than in patients treated with cholecalciferol (respectively, 30.7 ± 8.4 vs 45.4 ± 9.8 ng/mL, p <0.001). Supplementation with cholecalciferol or calcifediol results in both cases effective in reaching optimal circulating values of 25OH-VitaminD3 in the older patients suffering from hypovitaminosis D. However, supplementation with calcifediol led to average circulating values of 25OH- VitaminD3 significantly higher (over 50%) than those obtained with cholecalciferol.
