A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of 65,196 Subjects.","authors":"Mohamed Abo Zeid, Amr Elrosasy, Ahmad Alkheder, Hazim Alkousheh, Mohammad Al Diab Al Azzawi, Shrouk F Mohamed, Ameen Alkhateeb, Hashem Abu Serhan","doi":"10.1080/08820538.2024.2420969","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/08820538.2024.2420969","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Purpose: </strong>Cataract surgery is a common operation, typically carried out on older adults who have many comorbid medical conditions. Many of these patients may be undergoing aspirin therapy for diverse cardiovascular causes. Nevertheless, there is ongoing controversy regarding the administration of aspirin therapy during the perioperative period, as there are concerns regarding the risk of bleeding problems compared to thromboembolic events. Although aspirin is commonly used, there is no agreement on whether to continue or stop taking it before cataract surgery. This systematic review and meta-analysis attempt to assess the safety of continuing or discontinuing aspirin in the setting of cataract surgery.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis following PRISMA guidelines. Four databases were searched until January 25, 2024, for studies assessing the safety and efficacy of aspirin continuation or discontinuation before cataract surgery. The risk ratios (RR) of the extracted data and their 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were pooled using RevMan 5.4 software.

However, the risk of hyphema, retrobulbar hemorrhage, vitreous hemorrhage, intraocular pressure spike, corneal edema, posterior capsule rupture, and visual acuity changes did not significantly differ between aspirin continuation and discontinuation or aspirin and placebo groups.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Although the use of aspirin before cataract surgery raises the likelihood of subconjunctival bleeding, it does not increase the risk of potentially sight-threatening bleeding events.

It classically presents with symptoms of redness, mucopurulent discharge, medial canthal swelling, epiphora, and pouting punctum. Despite having classical clinical characteristics it is frequently misdiagnosed. The cause can be primarily due to various infectious agents or secondary mostly due to the use of punctal plugs. There are no universally accepted guidelines for the management of canaliculitis but different medical and surgical options have been employed with varying success rates and it is notorious for recurrences and failure to therapy. The present review summarizes the existing literature on lacrimal canaliculitis published over the past 15 years to provide an overview of this uncommon condition. A total of 100 articles published in the literature were anlaysed during this period. The mean age at diagnosis was 57.09 ± 16.91 years with a female preponderance. Misdiagnosis was common with many patients misdiagnosed as conjunctivitis and dacryocystitis. Primary canaliculitis was found to be more frequent than secondary with inferior canaliculus involved more commonly than the superior. <i>Staphylococcus</i>, <i>Streptococcus</i>, and <i>Actinomyces</i> were the most common microbes isolated. Surgical management was employed in 74.25% of cases while medical management was done in 20.82% of cases.
