Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Mary K Howard"
- Mary K Howard's research primarily investigates the associations between medical conditions and their impact on ophthalmology, including the relationship between dyslipidemia and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) in her 2016 study.
- Her findings indicate that abnormal serum lipid levels may potentially contribute to MGD, highlighting a gap in clinical research regarding the etiology of this condition.
- Additionally, in a 2015 study, she evaluated the consequences of relocating an ophthalmology consultation service from an inpatient to an outpatient facility, revealing that while consult volume remained unchanged, the relocation influenced management patterns and follow-up rates.
