(1)Aims of the study: calculating the underreporting ratio for two different medications, a fixed combination of 0.5% timolol + 0.2% brimonidine + 2.0% dorzolamide (antiglaucoma) and a fixed combination of sodium hyaluronate 0.1% + chondroitin sulfate 0.18% (artificial tear) and characterizing the features influencing the reporting of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in spontaneous reporting; (2) Methods: the underreporting ratio was calculated by comparing the adverse drug reactions reported in the spontaneous reporting database for every 10,000 defined daily doses marketed and the adverse drug reactions from an active surveillance study for every 10,000 defined daily doses used for different drugs (antiglaucoma and artificial tear). The factors related to the report in spontaneous reporting through statistical tests were also determined; (3) Results: The underreporting ratio of spontaneous reporting was 0.006029% for antiglaucoma and 0.003552% for artificial tear; additionally, statistically significant differences were found for severity, unexpected adverse drug reactions, and incidence of adverse drug reactions in females; (4) Conclusions: The underreporting ratio of ADRs related to ophthalmic medications indicates worry since the cornerstone of pharmacovigilance focuses on spontaneous reporting. Besides, since underreporting seems to be selective, the role of certain aspects like gender, seriousness, severity, and unexpected ADRs, must be considered in future research.

Mortality and readmission rates for decompensated acute heart failure (AHF) is overall increasing and risk stratification might be challenging. We sought to evaluate the prognostic role of systemic venous ultraso-nography in patients hospitalized for AHF. We prospectively recruited 74 AHF patients with a NT-proBNP level above 500 pg/mL. Then, a multiorgan ultrasound assessment (lung, inferior vena cava, Doppler of hepatic, portal, intrarenal and femoral veins) were performed at admission, discharge, and follow-up (for 90 days). An intrarenal monophasic pattern (AUC 0.923, Sn 90%, Sp 81%, PPV 43%, NPV 98%), a portal pulsatility >50% (AUC 0.749, Sn 80%, Sp 69%, PPV 30%, NPV 96%) and a VExUS score of 3 (AUC 0.885, sensitivity 80%, specificity 75%, PPV 33%, NPV 96%) predicted death during hospitalization. An IVC above 2 cm (AUC 0.758, Sn 93.l% and Sp 58.3) and the presence of an intrarenal monophasic pattern (AUC 0. 834, sensitivity 0.917, specificity 67.4%) in the follow-up visit predicted AHF related readmission. Addi-tional scans during hospitalization or calculate a VExUS score probably adds unnecessary complexity to the assessment of AHF patients. In conclusion, VExUS score does not contribute to guide therapy or the predic-tion of complications, compared to the presence of an inferior vena cava greater than 2 cm, a venous mo-nophasic intrarenal pattern or a pulsatility > 50% of the portal vein in AHF patients. Early and multidisci-plinary follow-up visit remains necessary to improve prognosis of this highly prevalent disease.
