Evaluation of Noninvasive Thermometers in an Endoscopy Setting.

The measurement of body temperature is an important aspect of assessment prior to invasive procedures. The purpose of the study was to determine the level of agreement between temporal artery, noncontact infrared, and disposable oral electronic thermometers to a clinical reference device (nondisposable oral electronic thermometer) in outpatients prior to an endoscopic procedure. A descriptive, method-comparison study design was used to compare 3 noninvasive thermometers with a clinical reference device.

[Early-onset esotropia operated before the age of 24 months: long-term results of Cüpper's retropexy combined with simultaneous recession of both medial recti].

[Glaucoma with aniridia and isolated congenital glaucoma in siblings: contribution and limits of genetics].

Introduction: Congenital glaucoma associated with aniridia and primary congenital glaucoma are regarded as different entities. Indeed, the abnormalities of the angle's structures as well as the genes involved are different. We report the observation of two sisters presenting these two types of glaucoma with particular attention paid to the importance and the difficulty of genetic counseling.
