Insulin usage and glaucoma treatment associated with the incidence of surgically treated vision‐threatening epiretinal membrane: Evidence from an epidemiological study

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Multiple factors play a role in epiretinal membrane (ERM) formation and appear to affect the risk of ERM surgery. We explored whether the use of common systemic and topical medications is associated with ERM surgery in Finland. Methods The main outcome variable was incidence of surgically treated vision‐threatening epiretinal membrane (

Use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors and risk of myeloid malignancy: A nationwide Danish case–control study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Preclinical and clinical studies suggest that selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) can stimulate haematopoiesis by promoting proliferation and mobilization of haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, but whether SSRI use influences myeloid malignancy risk remains unclear.

Development and validation of a model for stratifying haematological malignancy risk in primary care using basic blood tests

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Haematological malignancies are rare in primary care and are hard to predict. Existing prediction models often require a specific working diagnosis and are based on extensive clinical information, access to which may be limited at initial work‐up in primary care.
