Methods: Retrospective hospital-based case series from a tertiary eye care hospital in India. Patients with uveitis and positive syphilis serology were included.
Purpose: To describe the clinical profile and complications of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and uveitis in patients with coexisting conditions and to derive associations based on site of primary inflammation, stage of DR, and complications of each.
Design: Single-center, cross-sectional observational study.
Participants: Sixty-six patients with coexisting DR and uveitis.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the use of tofacitinib, an oral medication, in nine pediatric patients with treatment-resistant uveitis and one with scleritis, focusing on its effectiveness and safety.* -
- The patients, primarily affected by juvenile idiopathic arthritis, showed significant improvement, with most achieving remission and no systemic side effects reported during the follow-up period of around 278 days.* -
- The findings suggest that tofacitinib could serve as a beneficial second-line treatment for pediatric uveitis, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.*
