Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore the agreement between intraocular pressure (IOP) measured with a scleral Schiotz tonometer and the more commonly used Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT).
- It involved 155 patients, measuring IOP through both methods, and analyzed factors like age and central corneal thickness to see their impact on IOP readings.
- Results indicated that the scleral measurements aligned well with GAT values, suggesting that scleral tonometry could serve as a reliable alternative for measuring IOP in clinical settings.
Malaysia, particularly Pahang, experiences devastating floods annually, causing significant damage. The objective of the research was to create a flood susceptibility map for the designated area by employing an Ensemble Machine Learning (EML) algorithm based on geographic information system (GIS). By analyzing nine key factors from a geospatial database, flood susceptibility map was created with the ArcGIS software (ESRI ArcGIS Pro v3.

Methods: After ophthalmic examination, patients were subjected to two perimetric tests: BYP and GYP. The visual field (VF) parameters were compared between the two perimeters (p < 0.
Background: Globally, tuberculosis (TB) continues to be the major public health problem. Limited research is carried out on the impact of the disease on health-related quality of life (HR-QoL). The study aims to assess the HR-QoL among TB patients during and after Directly Observed Treatment Short-course (DOTS) therapy and to compare the HR-QoL of these patients with matched neighbourhood controls.
