Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of adalimumab (ADA) treatment in non-infectious uveitis and the effect of disease duration, age, and etiology on treatment outcome.

Methods: This retrospective study included patients with active non-infectious uveitis who were on ADA treatment with at least 3 months follow-up from a single tertiary care center. Uveitis type, any associated systemic disease, uveitis duration before ADA, duration of ADA treatment, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), anterior chamber cell (ACC) grade, vitritis grade, intraocular pressure (IOP) values, central macular thickness (CMT), fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) score, complications and relapse rate were recorded.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to compare the vascular properties of optic discs in patients with crowded discs versus control subjects using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A).
  • Thirty patients with crowded discs and 47 control subjects were included, with various measurements taken from the optic discs, including RPC density and pRNFL thickness.
  • Results showed that while some measurements were similar, crowded optic discs had a higher RPC density inside the disc and lower PPCMv density in the inner-hemisuperior region.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) has many different ocular manifestations. This study evaluates the effects of the disease and the steroid used in this disease on ocular structures.

Purpose:  To evaluate the effects of Covid-19 and the steroids used in the treatment of severe infection on ocular structures and choroidal thickness.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare capillary vascular status in crowded versus normal optic discs using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A).
  • It involved 101 eyes, with 51 having crowded discs and 50 having normal discs, measuring various vascular densities around the optic disc and within it.
  • The results showed no significant difference in vascular density around the discs between crowded and normal optic discs, but inside the crowded discs, vascular density was higher, indicating that smaller discs can still maintain their vascular structures despite size constraints.

Background: Flow-diverting stents are devices that are increasingly used in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms and expand the spectrum of endovascular treatment. The patency of side branches and perforators is a major concern about flow-diverting stent (FDS) treatment.

Methods: From 2011 to 2020, seventy-eight patients in whom the orifice of the ophthalmic artery was covered during FDS treatment were evaluated in this study.

Purpose: To perform a longitudinal analysis of the effect of optic coherence tomography (OCT) biomarkers on macular thickness in patients with persistent macular edema secondary to diabetes mellitus and retinal vein occlusion who recieved intravitreal dexamethasone (DEX) implant.

Methods: Eighty-nine patients were included in the retrospective study. Patients with anti-VEGF-resistant macular edema were included in the study.

Objectives: This experimental study aims to compare the effects of three techniques; free autogenous periosteal graft, demineralized bone matrix (DBM) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) combined with periosteal graft on the healing of full thickness joint cartilage defects in rabbits.

Materials And Methods: This study used 87 adolescent 16 week-old New Zealand rabbits of both sexes, with an approximate weight of 2500-3750 g. The rabbits were randomly divided into four groups including a control group and three experimental groups.
