Sulfur Mustard and Immunology; Trends of 20 Years Research in the Web of Science Core Collection: A Scientometric Review.

Background: We aimed to use the scientometric approach to evaluate immunological studies on the subject of sulfur mustard over the past 20 years.

Methods: In this scientometric study, the Web of Science Core Collection was searched on the studies about sulfur mustard. The published papers related to the field of immunology were retrieved from these papers.

Measurement Properties of the Persian Translated Version of Graves Orbitopathy Quality of Life Questionnaire: A Validation Study.

Purpose: To determine the measurement properties of the Persian language version of the Graves orbitopathy quality of life questionnaire (GO-QOL).

Methods: Following a systematic translation and cultural adaptation process, 141 consecutive unselected thyroid eye disease (TED) patients answered the Persian GO-QOL and underwent complete ophthalmic examination. The questionnaire was again completed by 60 patients on the second visit, 2-4 weeks later.

A Novel One-Stage Obstruction-Based Endoscopic Approach to Congenital Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction.

Purpose: To report 10-year results of a 1-stage, obstruction-based, endoscopic approach in children with congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) with and without prior failed probing/intubation.

Methods: In a retrospective study, children with primary CNLDO of >6 months old previously failed probing/intubation, acute dacryocystitis or dacryocele at any age, and at least 6 months follow up. Diagnosis was based on history of tearing and dye disappearance test.

Tear Film, Lacrimal Drainage System, and Eyelid Findings in Subjects With Anophthalmic Socket Discharge.

Purpose: To compare the results of tear film and lacrimal drainage system tests between anophthalmic socket and normal eye and assess discharge characteristics and frequency of prosthesis removal (questionnaire), eyelid function, and meibomian glad dysfunction (MGD).

Design: Prospective masked case control.

Methods: Subjects (≥6 years and ≥6 months of wearing prosthesis) with unilateral acquired anophthalmic socket discharge were included.

Treatment of Blepharospasm in Schwartz-Jampel Syndrome: Botulinum Toxin A Injection or Surgery.

Schwartz-Jampel syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease that comprises facial and musculoskeletal deformity. Hereby, the authors report 2 cases of Schwartz-Jampel syndrome and surgical method of their management. The first case was a boy who was result of twin delivery whose sibling was completely normal.

Effect of povidone-iodine concentration and exposure time on bacteria isolated from endophthalmitis cases.

Purpose: To determine the in vitro susceptibility of post-cataract surgery endophthalmitis bacterial isolates to different concentrations of povidone-iodine at different exposure times.

Setting: Poostchi Ophthalmology Research Center, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran.

Design: Experimental study.

Comparison of corneal thickness measurements using Galilei, HR Pentacam, and ultrasound.

Purpose: To assess the degrees of agreement in measuring corneal thickness in normal eyes between 2 noncontact systems based on the dual Scheimpflug system (Galilei; Ziemer) and rotating Scheimpflug imaging (HR Pentacam; Oculus) and also between each of these methods and the gold-standard method of ultrasound pachymetry.

Methods: In a prospective study, measurement agreement was assessed in 47 eyes of 47 healthy subjects. All eyes were examined with each of the 3 devices.
