Abstract Background: Although observational studies have suggested that prior intravitreal therapy may predict posterior capsule rupture (PCR) during cataract surgery, this finding is still controversial. Objective: To summarize current evidence on the association between prior intravitreal injection (IVI) and PCR during cataract surgery. Methods: A systematic literature search was performed up to October 27th, 2021. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random-effects models. The potential association between IVI and PCR in future cataract surgeries was assessed using the following two models: “pooling the odds ratios of PCR in eyes with and without previous IVI(s)” and “pooling the odds ratios for PCR relative to each increase in the number of prior injections.” The quality of included studies was appraised using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Results: 6 cohort studies were included in this meta-analysis, with a total of 1,051,097 eyes that underwent cataract surgery. Of these, 7,034 eyes were associated with previous IVI. The pooled odds of PCR in eyes with prior IVI was 2.01 (95% CI: 1.35–3.00) times higher than that of eyes without an IVI history. An increase in the number of previous IVI conferred increased odds of PCR of 1.03 (95% CI: 1.01–1.06). After excluding studies that failed to account for confounders, the significantly increased risk was not altered, and the significant heterogeneity was minimized in both models. Conclusion: This meta-analysis provides evidence that previous IVI significantly increases the risk of PCR during future cataract surgery. The risk of PCR should be discussed preoperatively with patients. Further studies are required to validate our findings and explore the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract Background Renal involvement is a common and severe complication of ANCA (antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody) associated vasculitis (AAV) potentially resulting in a pauci-immune necrotizing and crescentic antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) glomerulonephritis (GN) with acute kidney injury (AKI), end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or death. We recently described that Bowman’s capsule rupture links glomerular damage to tubulointerstitial inflammation in ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis. Herein we provide a comprehensive histological subtyping of immune cell infiltrates in association with Bowman’s capsule rupture in ANCA GN. Methods A total of 44 kidney biopsies with ANCA GN were retrospectively included in a single-center observational study. Within a renal biopsy specimen, each glomerulus was scored separately for the presence of extensive and focal Bowman’s capsule rupture in injured glomeruli. Infiltrates of neutrophils, eosinophils, plasma cells, and mononucleated cells (macrophages, lymphocytes) were quantified as a fraction of the area of total cortical inflammation. Results Extensive Bowman’s capsule rupture was associated with tubulointerstitial inflammation containing infiltrates of neutrophils, eosinophils and plasma cells. A similar association was observed for the presence of focal Bowman’s capsule rupture, correlating with tubulointerstitial inflammation containing neutrophils, eosinophils and plasma cells. Multiple logistic regression confirmed that extensive Bowman’s capsule rupture correlated with tubulointerstitial inflammation containing neutrophils, and focal Bowman’s capsule rupture correlated with neutrophil and plasma cell infiltration. Furthermore, this association was specifically observed in PR3-ANCA GN. Conclusion To our knowledge, this is the first report linking Bowman’s capsule rupture directly to tubulointerstitial inflammation by immune cell subtypes. This underscores a pathomechanistic link between tubulointerstitial and glomerular lesions in ANCA GN and needs further investigation. Graphical abstract

ObjectiveOrder of the theatre list and complexity of the cases are important considerations which are known to influence surgical outcomes. This survey aimed to establish their influence on cataract surgery.Methods and AnalysisCataract surgeons ordered five cataract cases according to their surgical preference, first using case notes and second using composite ORs (CORs) for posterior capsule rupture. Descriptive and non-parametric statistics were used to analyse the data.ResultsBetween 11 June and 14 July 2020, 192 cataract surgeons from 14 countries completed the online survey. Majority of the surgeons (142 vs 50) preferred to choose the order of their list (p<0.01) and to review the case notes prior to the day of surgery (89 vs 53; p=0.04). 39.86% preferred to start with the less risky case and 32.43% reserved the last position on the list for the riskiest case. There was a significant trend to order the list in an ascending level of risk, independent of whether case notes or CORs were used. Additionally, 44.79% of the respondents indicated they would be happy to have their list order planned by an automated program based on their preferred risk score.ConclusionThis survey demonstrates that cataract surgeons prefer to choose the order of their theatre list and that the order is dependent on the complexity of cases. There is support among surgeons for automated list ordering based on an objective score for risk stratification, such as a COR.

Joint capsule rupture is an uncommon pathology that leads to intense pain, lameness and is related to the athletic performance impossibility of the animal. This pathology presents controversial therapeutic protocols in the equine clinic and surgery. Therefore, this study aimed to report the use of mesenchymal stem cells associated with arthroscopy and rehabilitation to improve the treatment of joint capsule rupture in equine. A three-year-old, male, Quarter Horse, presenting grade 5 lameness, with four months of evolution, was diagnosed with tibiotarsal joint capsule rupture. The patient underwent arthroscopic surgery, received an intra articular application of mesenchymal stem cells, and a rehabilitation protocol was performed. One year after the treatment and rehabilitation, the horse reestablished its athletic performance, thus indicating the success of the therapy using mesenchymal stem cells associated with surgical treatment and rehabilitation.

Objective. To investigate the clinical characteristics and factors affecting visual outcome in patients with intraocular foreign bodies (IOFBs) and determine the risk factors for the development of endophthalmitis. Study Design. A retrospective case-series study design was adopted. Subjects. In total, 242 patients (242 eyes) who were hospitalized and underwent surgical treatment for IOFB at the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2019, were included. Methods. The demographic data, cause of injury, characteristics of IOFBs, postinjury ocular manifestations, and surgical details of the subjects were collected, and the factors affecting visual outcome and endophthalmitis development were analyzed. Results. The most common cause of IOFBs was the propulsion of foreign bodies into the eye due to hammering (149 cases, 61.57%), followed by foreign body penetration (57 cases, 23.55%). Most of the subjects were young adult men who sustained injuries in the work environment. Poorer visual outcomes were found in subjects with initial presenting symptoms visual acuity (PVA) < 0.1, largest IOFB diameter ≥ 3 mm, IOFBs located in the posterior segment, wound length > 5 mm, entrance wound length larger than the largest IOFB diameter, concomitant retinal detachment, concomitant vitreous hemorrhage, concomitant endophthalmitis, and concomitant proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). Factors related to the development of endophthalmitis included lens capsule rupture, time of stage 1 repair surgery ≥ 24 h after trauma, removal of IOFBs ≥ 24 h after trauma, and nonadministration of intravitreal antibiotic injection. Conclusion. Among patients with IOFBs, initial PVA < 0.1, entrance wound length larger than the largest IOFB diameter, concomitant endophthalmitis, and concomitant PVR were risk factors for poor visual outcomes. Lens capsule rupture was a risk factor for endophthalmitis development, and the administration of intravitreal antibiotic injection was a protective factor against endophthalmitis development.
