Article Synopsis
- A 54-year-old woman experienced persistent fatigue and high fever, leading to the discovery of central pontine myelinolysis (CPM) on brain scans, even though she had no neurological symptoms.
- Investigation revealed she had primary splenic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PS-DLBCL), with her low serum sodium being a contributing factor.
- The CPM condition was treated successfully through splenectomy and immunochemotherapy, marking the first documented case of CPM linked to PS-DLBCL with pathology confirmation and improvements noted in brainstem auditory-evoked potentials.
Purpose: To investigate sectoral differences in the relationship between intraocular pressure (IOP) dynamics during dark-room prone testing (DRPT) and visual field (VF) defect progression in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients.
Design: Retrospective, longitudinal study.
Participants: This retrospective study included 116 eyes of 84 POAG patients who underwent DRPT and had at least 5 reliable VF tests conducted over a more than 2-year follow-up period.
Introduction: Abnormal findings on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and electroretinography (ERG) have been reported in participants with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs). This study aims to reveal the pooled standard mean difference (SMD) in retinal parameters on OCT and ERG among participants with SSDs and healthy controls and their association with demographic characteristics, clinical symptoms, smoking, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension.
Methods: Using PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and PSYNDEX, we searched the literature from inception to March 31, 2023, using specific search terms.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to explore how changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) during Dark-Room Prone Testing (DRPT) relate to IOP levels over a two-year period in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma.
- - A total of 84 eyes from 51 patients were analyzed, focusing on IOP measurements taken both in a sitting position and after lying prone in a dark room, with a focus on IOP fluctuations and maximum values.
- - Results showed a significant increase in IOP after DRPT, suggesting that short-term IOP responses can help predict long-term IOP changes in glaucoma patients.
