This study showed better tear film stability after minocycline treatment and a biological effect on meibomian fatty acid composition in MGD patients. Minocycline was more effective than lid hygiene alone. Both interventions partly corrected fatty acid composition abnormalities. Among the fatty acids, isoC20 could be a biological marker of MGD.
Tocilizumab seems to be a promising treatment in refractory uveitis. A prospective study is needed to evaluate the role of this new agent in the management of refractory uveitis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
