This study evaluates global health diplomacy and governance by performing bibliometric analysis to investigate the current publication trends, authors and keywords-based clusters, research trends, author's productivity, and future research areas. The analysis results suggest that global health diplomacy has garnered attention only in developed countries and has been researched negligibly in developing countries. The research in this field increases after the onset of pandemics such as Swine Flu and COVID-19.

Purpose: The aim was to investigate the effect of axial length on full-field electroretinogram (ffERG) and multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) in young Indian subjects.
Methods: One hundred subjects (44 male) with refractive errors from +0.50 to -18.
Purpose: To investigate the effect of optic neuritis (ON), ischemic optic neuropathy (ION) and compressive optic neuropathy (CON) on multifocal visual evoked potential (mfVEP) amplitudes and latencies, and to compare the parameters among three optic nerve disorders.
Materials And Methods: mfVEP was recorded for 71 eyes of controls and 48 eyes of optic nerve disorders with subgroups of optic neuritis (ON, n = 21 eyes), ischemic optic neuropathy (ION, n = 14 eyes), and compressive optic neuropathy (CON, n = 13 eyes). The size of defect in mfVEP amplitude probability plots and relative latency plots were analyzed.
Purpose: The aim was to investigate multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) findings in Bietti's crystalline dystrophy (BCD) using a retrospective, non-interventional, consecutive case series.
Methods: Five patients, two women and three men (mean age 31.8 years), clinically diagnosed with BCD underwent full-field electroretinogram (ffERG) and mfERG using Burian Allen bipolar contact lens electrode on the VERIS Science 5.
To investigate the effect of pituitary adenoma compressing the optic chiasm on multifocal visual evoked potential (mfVEP) responses and to compare these responses with visual field defects seen on static automated perimetry (SAP). Eight eyes of four subjects (median age, 41.50 years; interquartile range, 33-51 years) who were diagnosed with pituitary adenoma on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and seen to have a bitemporal visual field defect on standard automated perimetry (SAP), and twelve age-matched normal subjects (median age, 47.

Design: Consecutive observational case-control study.
Participants: Eighteen eyes of 9 patients who presented to the retina clinic of Sankara Nethralaya from 2005 to 2008.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate focal macular function by using multifocal electroretinography in a patient presenting with features of desferrioxamine maculopathy.
Methods: This is an observational case-control study of a 74-year-old man taking desferrioxamine mesylate 40 mg/kg/d 4 to 5 times a week as an iron-chelating agent for 5 years. Desferrioxamine-related ocular toxicity presenting as bilaterally symmetrical pigmentary maculopathy was diagnosed by clinical examination and relevant history.
