    Purpose: Management of uveitis displays a particular challenge in childhood. This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of infliximab (IFX) and adalimumab (ADA) in pediatric noninfectious uveitis that were refractory to conventional immunosuppresives.Methods: This retrospective single-center study included 33 patients who were treated with anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agents (16 with IFX and 17 with ADA). Patients had diverse etiologies, including juvenile idiopathic arthritis, idiopathic uveitis, and Behcet's disease. Demographic characteristics, systemic diagnosis, findings of the ophthalmological examination, control of ocular inflammation, response to treatment, and the rate of clinical remission were studied.Results: Fourteen (87.5%) patients receiving IFX and 10 (58.8%) patients receiving ADA achieved response to treatment during the follow-up (P = 0.118). The agents were discontinued with complete clinical remission in 6 (37.5%) patients receiving IFX and in 2 (11.8%) patients receiving ADA (P = 0.118). Baseline visual acuities and parameters of inflammation improved significantly in both groups after anti-TNF therapy.Conclusion: Both IFX and ADA are safe and effective for pediatric noninfectious uveitis.

    Clinical outcomes of posterior segment intraocular foreign bodies: The volume effect
    (Masson Editeur, 2021-05-12) Gündüz, Gamze Uçan; Yalçınbayir, Özgür; Güllülü, Zeynep Zahide; Özkaya, Gamze; UÇAN GÜNDÜZ, GAMZE; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; GÜLLÜLÜ, ZEYNEP ZAHİDE; ÖZKAYA, Gamze; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göz Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İstatistik Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0002-7311-5277; 0000-0003-0297-846X; 0000-0002-1219-8304; AAH-6661-2021; IYJ-9408-2023; FAZ-3274-2022; A-4421-2016
    Purpose. - To assess the effect of foreign body volume on visual and anatomic outcomes in patients with a posterior segment intraocular foreign body (IOFB).Methods. - Patients were divided into three groups according to the volume of the IOFB; group 1 (n = 18 eyes) with IOFBs< 2 mm(3), group 2 (n = 15 eyes) with 2 mm(3) <= IOFBs < 6 mm(3), group 3 (n = 18 eyes) with IOFBs >= 6 mm(3). AU eyes underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for removal of the IOFB. Demographic characteristics, features of the injury and IOFB, findings of the initial and final ophthalmological examinations, and timing of IOFB removal were studied.Results. - The mean age was 38.8 +/- 12.0 years, and the median follow-up period was 12.0 (range: 6-98) months. Initial visual acuity (VA) was significantly lower in group 3 (P= 0.005), while final VA was similar between the three subgroups. Frequencies of primary globe repair, initial vitreous hemorrhage (VH), corneoscleral entry, and IOFB removal through the cornea were significantly higher in eyes with large volume IOFBs (P<0.05). Siderosis was only seen in 4 patients in group 1 (22.2%). No patients developed postoperative endophthalmitis.Conclusion. - Large volume posterior segment IOFBs are associated with poor initial VA, initial VH and corneoscleral injury. Nevertheless, PPV and IOFB extraction under favorable conditions may provide significant visual improvement in eyes with large volume IOFBs. (C) 2021 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
