Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing helps in understanding the pathogenesis of several diseases. Limited knowledge is known regarding the association of HLA with idiopathic uveitis. Aim This was a cross-sectional observational case–control study evaluating HLA-A and HLA-B allelic and phenotypic frequencies in patients with idiopathic uveitis. Patients and methods HLA-A and HLA-B molecular typing by PCR-sequence-specific oligonucleotide probes and LIRAS interpretation software was performed for 60 patients with idiopathic uveitis and 60 controls recruited from Kasr Al-Ainy Hospitals, Cairo University. Results Anterior uveitis pattern was the most common (55%), followed by pan-uveitis (35%) and posterior uveitis (10%). Overall, 40% of patients had bilateral uveitis, whereas 60% had unilateral uveitis. A total of 23 HLA-A and 43 HLA-B variant alleles were detected. HLA-AFNx0109 and HLA-AFNx0110 allele and phenotype frequencies were significantly higher in the patient group (P=0.023 and 0.034, and P=0.013 and 0.029, respectively). HLA-BFNx0107 allele and phenotype frequencies were significantly higher in the control group (P=0.007 and 0.006, respectively). HLA-BFNx0127 and HLA-BFNx0105 were detected in 8.3 and 26.7%, respectively, with no significant difference. Conclusion HLA-AFNx0109 and HLA-AFNx0110 alleles were statistically significantly higher in patients with idiopathic uveitis. HLA-BFNx0107 might be a protective allele against disease development. Larger cohort needs to be tested to validate these findings. Routine HLA typing and proper follow-up for primarily diagnosed idiopathic uveitis is recommended as it might reveal secondary causes for uveitis, especially in patients with positive HLA-BFNx0127 and HLA-BFNx0105.","PeriodicalId":31572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Egyptian Ophthalmological Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41431702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients and methods The study was conducted on 100 eyes of 50 (37 females) patients seeking refractive surgery at a private eye center in Alexandria, Egypt. Following detailed history taking, all study participants were subjected to a thorough ophthalmic examination including assessment of uncorrected and best-corrected visual acuity, manifest and cycloplegic refraction, slit-lamp examination, measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) using Goldmann applanation tonometry, and fundus examination using a high plus auxiliary lens. Optical coherence tomography and corneal biomechanical properties were then studied using the Reichert ocular response analyzer. Results The mean±SD age of the study patients was 25.27±4.9 years and of contact lens wear (24% of study patients) was 2.5±0.9 years. The mean±SD of the manifest refractive error was −5.6±5.2 D sphere and −1.6±1.2 D cylinder and of the best-corrected visual acuity was 0.9±0.2. The mean±SD of the IOPg, IOPcc, corneal hysteresis and cornea resistance factor were 14.9±3.8, 16.5±3.4, 9.3±1.9, and 9.4±2 mmHg, of the Peripapillary Retinal Nerve Fibre Layer (pRNFL) thickness were 68.9±20.5 μ nasal, 113.3±20.7 μ superior, 77.7±16 μ temporal, and 119.3±21.5 μ inferior and of the central macula thickness was 270.8±22.9 μ. Conclusions The corneal biomechanical properties and the macular nerve fiber layer thickness are not correlated with the refractive error of the eye, whereas the peripapillary nerve fiber layer thickness correlates with the refractive error and the visual acuity.

Patients and methods A prospective study was conducted on 114 uncooperative children (119 sedation episodes) who were attending the strabismus and nystagmus outpatient clinic at Menoufia University Hospital. Children were sedated by the first dose of CH (50 mg/kg). A second dose, half-strength of the first dose, was given if no adequate sedation occurred after 30 min. The degree of sedation was graded into five categories: excellent, good, fair, poor, and failure. All demographic characteristics, sedation success, failure, and adverse events were reported and statistically analyzed. Results The mean age of children was 23.38 months (range: 5.16–62.06), and their weight ranged from 6.5 to 22 kg. The total CH dose ranged from 325 to 1500 mg. A total of 78 sedation episodes were reported by a single dose, and 41 by two doses. The percentage of the grade of sedation in our 119 episodes was as follows: excellent (56.3%), good (9.2%), fair (28.6%), poor (2.5%), and failure (3.4%). The overall success of one dose was 65.5%, which increased to 96.6% by a second supplemental dose. The most common complication was vomiting (13.4%). Other complications included prolonged drowsiness (one case) and paradoxical agitation (two cases). Spearman correlation showed a significant positive correlation between the degree of sedation and the total dose of CH (r=0.603, P<0.001).

Patients and method This comparative controlled clinical trial involved 45 eyes of 45 patients having acute central serous chorioretinopathy. Patients were divided into three equal groups: the first patient group received intravitreal aflibercept, the second one received intravitreal ranibizumab, and the third one, control group, received medical therapy: oral spironolactone 100 mg once daily and topical bromfenac 0.09% q.i.d. All groups were observed over a duration of 6 months and assessed for best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), pattern on fundus fluorescein angiography, duration of visual recovery, recurrence rate, and possible complications after intravitreal injections. The central macular thickness (CMT), the subfoveal choroidal thickness (CT), the subretinal fluid (SRF), and the foveal vascular density were compared across the groups. Results By the end of the follow-up, BCVA significantly (P<0.01) improved in all groups. However, group comparison revealed no significant differences (P>0.05). A significant reduction in the CMT due to resolution of the SRF existed at 2 weeks after treatment in all groups till complete resolution at 6 months. For subfoveal CT, within-group analysis reported nonsignificant (P>0.05) differences in the intravitreal injection groups, whereas a significant (P<0.05) reduction in CT was recorded in the control group at 3 and 6 months. The foveal vascular density showed nonsignificant differences (P<0.05) within and among study groups.

The retina is believed to be a prolongation of the central nervous system, and therefore optical coherence tomography readings may give an insight into the pathogenesis of MDD. Patients and methods An observational controlled cross-sectional study was performed at Ain Shams University Hospitals from September 2018 to December 2019. Optical coherence tomography was used to compare a group of 30 patients with MDD with a control group of 28 healthy individuals. Measurements recorded were macular thickness, peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, and ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer complex (GC-IP) thickness. Results Patients with MDD demonstrated significant macular thinning in all zones of the ETDRS map except the central zone bilaterally, and the inner nasal and inner lower zones in right eye. The peripapillary RNFL thickness of patients with MDD revealed significant thinning in the superior quadrant of both eyes. The GC-IP complex of patients with MDD showed significant thinning in the whole temporal and inner lower nasal subzones of the right eye and the upper nasal and lower temporal subfields of the left eye. Conclusion Patients with MDD showed reduced thickness of the macula, RNFL, and GC-IP. This may indicate that MDD involves an element of neurodegeneration, such as evidenced in gray matter changes.","PeriodicalId":31572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Egyptian Ophthalmological Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47713869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients and methods A prospective interventional study was conducted that included 34 eyes of 31 patients with deficient sclera scheduled for modified evisceration technique with intraconal placement of nonporous acrylic implants. Outcome was assessed in terms of implant extrusion, exposure, as well as other early or late postoperative complications. Results Adequate volume replacement was achieved in 32 (94.12%) of 34 eyes. Overall, two (5.88%) eyes had mild upper sulcus deficit, and three (8.8%) eyes had mild to moderate prominence of the prosthesis compared with the fellow eye, but no true exposure, extrusion, migration, socket contracture, or sympathetic ophthalmia was encountered. All of the patients were satisfied with the cosmetic and functional outcomes of the procedure, except for the two (5.88%) cases with upper sulcus deficit.
