Purpose: This multicenter study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and factors associated with specific viral pathogens in patients with acute retinal necrosis (ARN).
Methods: A retrospective multicenter cohort study included ARN patients who underwent aqueous or vitreous polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing. Multivariable mixed-effects Poisson regression was used to identify factors associated with viral pathogens.

Purpose: To investigate ocular manifestation of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients after starting highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and its relationship to T cell immunity.
Methods: HIV patients with ocular IRIS after HAART were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical presentations with previous opportunistic infection, duration from initiation of HAART to IRIS, blood CD4+, CD8+ T cell count, and HIV RNA copies before HAART and at IRIS were analyzed.
Ocul Immunol Inflamm
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, University of Tokyo Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Purpose: To examine the recurrence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) iritis in patients using low-dose ganciclovir (GCV) eye drops.
Methods: We included patients with dormant CMV iritis who were treated using 2% GCV eye drops at the University of Tokyo Hospital between January and June 2023 and whose dosage of GCV eye drops was required to be reduced due to the unstable GCV supply. Patients were excluded if they had active CMV retinitis and underwent corneal transplantation.
