Abstract

Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is one of the most common diseases of the peripheral nervous system. Symptoms range from mild sensory signs to severe neuropathic pain. Untreated PN is progressive and can lead to complications and impair quality of life (QoL). However, PN prevalence is underestimated in the general population and affected individuals often remain undiagnosed. This study aimed to contribute to the global generation of prevalence data and determine sociodemographic and disease-related characteristics of PN sufferers. This cross-sectional study collected information on PN prevalence and associated factors in the adult population (40–65 years) of the Mexico City area. Participants were recruited in public places and screened for PN using the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI). Subjects with PN answered the Neuropathy Total Symptom Score-6 (NTSS-6), the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36), and the QoL Pharmacoeconomic Questionnaire. Statistical analysis included descriptive methods and calculation of PN prevalence with 95% confidence intervals. Of 3066 participants, 448 had PN based on the MNSI physical examination. The overall PN prevalence was 14.6%, with the highest (18.9%) seen in subjects aged 61–65 years. PN was undiagnosed in 82.6%, and 62.9% had never heard of PN. Although half of all subjects had only mild PN symptoms, QoL was impacted in 91.8%. The results confirm that PN prevalence in the general population is high. Despite the disease burden, most affected persons are undiagnosed and unaware of the disease. Almost all felt their QoL was impacted. The data highlight the need to raise awareness and identify undiagnosed individuals to prevent complications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Purpose: Clinical trials have demonstrated that switching patients from intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) or ranibizumab (IVR) to aflibercept (IVA) for treatment‑refractory neovascular age‑related macular degeneration (nAMD) can decrease the injection frequency. This study evaluated whether there was a difference in the rate of injections or nonadherent events after switching therapies. Methods: The study comprised a retrospective, cross-sectional analysis of patients treated for nAMD from 2010 to 2018 who received ≥3 intravitreal injections of IVB/IVR prior to switching to IVA because of treatment-refractory nAMD. The treatment index, outcomes, and adherence to treatment were compared between both treatment regimens. Results: Sixty-two patients (67 eyes) met inclusion criteria. There was no change in the treatment index (0.65 versus 0.66, P = 0.650) or the number of nonadherent events (33 versus 36, P = 0.760) after the switch from IVB/ IVR to IVA. Central macular thickness (CMT) increased 7.7%±13.8% in eyes that had a nonadherent event (283±69 µm to 304±75 µm after resuming care, P = 0.039). There was no short-term impact on visual acuity (VA) for this subset of eyes (0.387±0.202 LogMAR versus 0.365±0.156 LogMAR, P = 0.636). Patients who had nonadherent events ended the study with similar VA compared with patients who had no treatment lapses (0.370±0.616 LogMAR versus 0.337±0.638 LogMAR, P = 0.843). Conclusion: Switching from IVB/ IVR to IVA for treatment-refractory nAMD in a real-world setting does not reduce the treatment index or increase adherence to treatment. Although there were short-term anatomical effects resulting from missed treatments, VA remained stable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

This paper deals with an extension of the concept of correlated strategies to Markov stopping games. The Nash equilibrium approach to solving nonzero-sum stopping games may give multiple solutions. An arbitrator can suggest to each player the decision to be applied at each stage based on a joint distribution over the players' decisions. This is a form of equilibrium selection. Examples of correlated equilibria in nonzero-sum games related to the staff selection competition in the case of two departments are given. Utilitarian, egalitarian, republican and libertarian concepts of correlated equilibria selection are used., Comment: The idea of this paper was presented at Game Theory and Mathematical Economics, International Conference in Memory of Jerzy Los(1920 - 1998), Warsaw, September 2004
