To compare the outcomes of iStent vs. inject implantation combined with phacoemulsification.This single center retrospective comparative case series included subjects open angle glaucoma who underwent or phacoemulsification ≥1 year follow-up. The main outcome measures were in-group and between-group changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) medication number, proportion eyes that achieved IOP ≤15 mmHg, surgical success defined as 20% reduction from baseline at 6/12 months....
Précis: In this retrospective study, the use of chronic antithrombotic therapy (ATT) did not increase risk hemorrhagic complications after trabecular bypass microstent surgery and phacoemulsification. Stent type female sex were associated with hyphema. Purpose: To report incidence phacoemulsification without (ATT). Methods: Retrospective case series on glaucoma patients ATT who underwent (iStent, iStent inject, Hydrus) combined between 2013 2019 ≥3-month follow-up. The primary outcome...
To evaluate the effect of phacoemulsification on intraocular pressure (IOP) in eyes with functioning tube shunts.This was a retrospective chart review primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients who underwent and had ≥24 months follow-up. The end point defined as surgical failure (IOP > 21 mmHg) at month 24, progression to no light perception (NLP) vision, reoperation, or implant removal. Surgical IOP >18 >15 mmHg, changes visual acuity (VA), IOP, number medications were...
To identify female authorship trends in first author and last positions Cornea from 2007 to 2019.First authors of all Clinical Science Basic Investigation publications over 13 years were sorted by sex. Identification sex was based on the author's institutional profile or a Google-based name identifier cases equivocal names. The proportion board-certified ophthalmologists between 2019 collected American Board Ophthalmology total roster certified diplomats.First sexes 2313 (1837 476...
To investigate demographic characteristics, educational backgrounds, and academic achievements among program directors (PDs) of cornea external disease anterior segment fellowships in the United States 2020.Database study U.S. fellowship programs.Cross-sectional study.PDs were identified using San Francisco Match website. Fellowship features reviewed included or private practice type, number faculty, sex chairperson. PD training background, productivity analyzed publicly available profiles...
Young infants who develop fever are at an increased risk for serious infection. It is unclear, however, what temperature cutoff would be optimal to begin evaluating these because some criteria use different thresholds. We sought determine the percentage of presenting Emergency Department (ED) with a less than 38.2°C infection compared those higher temperatures.We used publicly available dataset from Pediatric Care Applied Research Network. Patients were included if they aged 60 days or...
Purpose: To evaluate the clinical outcomes of different types treatment retinal arterial macroaneurysm with vitreous hemorrhage. Methods: This retrospective cohort study comprised patients and hemorrhage who were examined at a single retina clinic between 2013 2021. Results: Treatment arms included observation (n = 33), intravitreal injections (IVIs) antivascular endothelial growth factor agents 5), pars plana vitrectomy (PPV; n 12). Baseline characteristics final best-corrected visual...
PURPOSE Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is an aggressive disease with poor clinical outcomes. Primary pancreatic tumors originating from the head of pancreas (H) have different prognostic implications than arising body and tail (BT). This thought to be largely due anatomic differences, as molecular underpinnings survival not been fully explored. We hypothesized that differences in primary site H BT might account for differential outcomes response chemotherapy. METHODS Retrospective data a single...
Initial scientific studies suggest the spread of extreme content, "the COVID-19 infodemic," likely plays a crucial role in news about pandemic." In this paper, we quantify evolution polarization and engagement YouTube social networks public-health interventions for COVID-19. Although is major information source with high younger populations, platform not widely researched network analysis. Discussions coronavirus on media can influence how individuals interpret disease affect their...
We aimed to evaluate whether direct access colonoscopy (DAC) is noninferior office-scheduled (OSC) for achieving successful colonoscopy.
Understanding how underlying health conditions and social determinants of affect the severity COVID-19 is critical for community response planning. Literature reports that groups at higher risk from include those 65 older, living in nursing homes long-term care facilities, with severe obesity, diabetes, chronic lung disease, or asthma. In addition, other studies has shown disease disproportionately affects individuals lower socio-economic status. Our research seeks to validate these findings...
INTRODUCTION: Direct Access Colonoscopy (DAC), which does not require pre-colonoscopy consultation, may improve access for patients (pts) needing screening and surveillance. Eligibility criteria DAC vary widely. We developed a program using data (age, BMI, medical/colonoscopy/social history, medications) from the EMR, referring doctors, pts to assess appropriateness, inadequate preparation (prep) risk, need an advanced practice nurse and/or navigator. The aim of this study was evaluate...
Purpose To report the presentation and management of a 65-year-old female who presented with chronic angle closure glaucoma an atypical iris membrane. Case Report A healthy no significant past medical history to emergency room 2-day headache, blurry vision, right ocular pain. She denied any such prior episodes, including trauma, or family glaucoma. was diagnosed bilateral, severe atypical, pigmented iris-pupillary membrane in eye. Given appearance membrane, oncology consultation anterior...
Alkali injuries are ocular emergencies that require immediate evaluation and therapy to preserve vision. Severe alkali can result in long-term vision-threatening sequelae including symblepharon, corneal ulceration, scarring, limbal stem cell deficiency, xerophthalmia, cicatricial changes of the eyelid adnexa, glaucoma, uveitis, permanent vision loss. Treatment is aimed at neutralizing pH, controlling inflammation, restoring surface. Here, we present case a 35-year-old male who sustained...
428 Background: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is the fourth most common cause of cancer-related death in US. The location primary lesion has long been thought to influence survival due differences time presentation and ability undergo cancer directed surgery. We hypothesized that patients with tumors arising body or tail (distal) would have poorer than who presented lesions head pancreas (proximal) this difference be true regardless stage at diagnosis part other factors such as intrinsic biology...
