Purpose: Pediatric traumatic retinal detachment (RD) resulting from open globe injuries (OGIs) or closed globe injuries (CGIs) presents unique challenges due to complexity often resulting in lifelong sequelae. This study compares pediatric traumatic RD outcomes and prognostic factors following OGI and CGI.
Methods: A retrospective analysis reviewed 47 cases of pediatric traumatic RD in children (age <18 years), who underwent RD surgery between 2002 and 2021. Among them, 25 cases were caused by CGI and 22 cases by OGI. Demographics, RD characteristics, surgical procedures, and anatomical and functional results were assessed. Predictive factors for visual outcomes were investigated.
Results: In the CGI group, mean (±SD) age was 11 years ± 4 years, and 10 years ± 5 years in the OGI group. Closed globe injury traumatic RD had significantly better preoperative (CGI: logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution 1.39 ± 0.19 (mean ± standard error); OGI: logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution 2.12 ± 0.20) and follow-up (CGI: logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution 0.94 ± 0.19; OGI: logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution 1.85 ± 0.20) best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ( P < 0.05). Initial BCVA improvement was observed in CGI only. In multivariable analysis, prognostic factors for favorable BCVA outcomes included higher preoperative BCVA, older age, and absence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy ( P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Visual prognosis for pediatric traumatic RD remains limited, favoring CGI cases compared with OGI. Baseline BCVA emerged as a major determinant of final visual acuity. Tailored management approaches can optimize treatment results.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify the group at highest risk for autoimmune inflammation through a comparative analysis among patients with chronic post-traumatic uveitis (CPTU).
Material And Methods: The clinical group included 50 patients (aged 18 to 87 years, mean age 41±2.6 years) with CPTU resulting from penetrating injury, contusion, or intraocular surgery.

Chronic oxidative stress (COS) is related to the pathophysiology of the trabecular meshwork (TM) in glaucoma. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have a key role in the oxidative stress-mediated glaucoma. This work investigated the function of miR-126-5p in human trabecular meshwork cells (TMCs) under chronic oxidative stress (COS).

Background: Lupus podocytopathy (LP) is a non-immune complex-mediated glomerular lesion in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), characterized by the diffuse effacement of podocyte processes without immune complex deposition or with only mesangial immune complex deposition. LP is a rare cause of nephrotic syndrome in SLE patients with implications for prognosis and treatment.

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) serves as a home-based kidney replacement therapy with increasing utilization across the globe. However, long-term use of high-glucose-based PD solution incites repeated peritoneal injury and inevitable peritoneal fibrosis, thus compromising treatment efficacy and resulting in ultrafiltration failure eventually. In the present study, we utilized human mesothelial MeT-5A cells for the in vitro experiments and a PD mouse model for in vivo validation to study the pathophysiological mechanisms underneath PD-associated peritoneal fibrosis.
