Purpose: Thyroid eye disease (TED) is characterized by a variety of disfiguring periocular changes. Vertical globe changes affecting the relative position of the eyelids are not well understood in patients with TED. This study seeks to determine the effect of orbital decompression on vertical globe displacement in patients with TED, without TED, and with intraconal tumor (ICT).

Introduction: Raising taxes is one of the most cost-effective measures to reduce tobacco use. France has a unique profile: it has high tobacco use prevalence and a state monopoly on tobacco sales for tobacconists who are both agents of the customs administration and a recognised tobacco industry (TI) front group. In this paper, we investigate the lobbying tactics and arguments against tobacco taxation mobilised by the TI and tobacconists in France.

Purpose: Bilateral orbital volume (OV) symmetry is imperative for successful orbital reconstruction to prevent complications such as enophthalmos, diplopia, and orbital dystopia. The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of surgeon-led in-house OV calculation for reconstructed orbits after orbital floor fracture.
Materials And Methods: This is a retrospective cross-sectional observational study of maxillofacial computed tomography scans for patients undergone orbital fracture repair by Emory Oral and Maxillofacial service at Grady Memorial Hospital (Atlanta, Georgia) from 2018 to 2020.
Midsagittal Plane First: Building a Strong Facial Reference Frame for Computer-Aided Surgical Simulation.

Purpose: A facial reference frame is a 3-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system that includes 3 perpendicular planes: midsagittal, axial, and coronal. The order in which one defines the planes matters. The purposes of this study are to determine the following: 1) what sequence (axial-midsagittal-coronal vs midsagittal-axial-coronal) produced more appropriate reference frames and 2) whether orbital or auricular dystopia influenced the outcomes.
