“…In addition, studies 34 , 35 showed that advanced age, history of diabetes and seasonal factors were also important risk factors of endophthalmitis after cataract surgery. The univariate analysis of the history of advanced age and diabetes mellitus in our study showed that it had no effect on the incidence of endophthalmitis (P=0.067, P=0.845).…”

Objective Intended to investigate the epidemiological characteristics, risk factors and incidence trend of endophthalmitis after cataract surgery in recent 12 years. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on the patients who underwent cataract surgery in Qingdao Eye Hospital from January 1, 2008, to December 31, 2019, including age, sex, history of diabetes, intraoperative operation and complications. In addition, the related risk factors and incidence trend of acute infective endophthalmitis were analyzed. The incidence of endophthalmitis and its related factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results A total of 55,612 cases of cataract surgery were performed in our hospital in 12 years, and 42 cases of acute infective endophthalmitis occurred (the incidence rate was 0.076%). The average occurrence time was 10.57 days ± 11.17, with eye pain as the main complaint and anterior chamber fibrin exudation as the main clinical manifestation. In addition, there were eight cases of anterior chamber hypopyon and 18 cases of vitreous reaction, the results of anterior aqueous humor or vitreous fluid culture in 10 patients were positive. Univariate analysis showed that intraoperative rupture of posterior capsule, non-use of antibiotics and non-use of behind-the-lens washout were the risk factors of infectious endophthalmitis after cataract surgery (P=0.032, P=0.000, P=0.000). Besides, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that intraoperative rupture of posterior capsule was the main risk factor. Conclusion The occurrence of endophthalmitis after cataract surgery is mainly related to intraoperative rupture of posterior capsule, absence of antibiotics and behind-the-lens washout. In addition, the incidence of endophthalmitis after cataract surgery decreased during the past 12 years.

Aims To assess the prevalence and time trends of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in the overall population of Poland from 2013 to 2017 and diagnose the risk factors of occurring DR among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods Data from all levels of healthcare services at public and private institutions recorded in the National Health Fund (NHF) database were evaluated. International Classification of Diseases codes (ICD-9 and ICD-10) and unique NHF codes were used to identify DM type 1 and type 2 patients, DR and treatment procedures including laser photocoagulation, pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), anti-VEGF and steroid intravitreal injections. Results The overall registered prevalence of DR in the entire population of Poland was 0.81%. The mean prevalence of DR was 20.01% in the population with type 1 DM and 9.70% in the population with type 2 DM. In the study period, women represented 56.36% of all individuals registered with DR and 55.09% of all DM patients. In Poland, only 6.34% of all DM patients with DR received specific treatment with laser photocoagulation of the retina (82.32%), PPV (11.56%), anti-VEGF or steroid injections (5.15% and 0.97%, respectively). Cox regression hazard analysis showed that the risk of DR was associated with DM treatment only by GPs, female sex, coexisting systemic diseases and urban residence in both type 1 and type 2 DM. Conclusions A 5-year retrospective analysis reveals the mean prevalence of DR in the population with type 1 and type 2 DM in Poland was rather low.

Background: The present study aimed to investigate the incidence and characteristics of retinoblastoma in the overall population of Poland. Methods: The retrospective survey of both National Health Fund (NHF) and National Cancer Registry (NCR) databases were performed to identify all retinoblastoma cases in Poland in the years 2010–2017. Results: During 2010–2017, the mean age-standardised incidence of retinoblastoma (the unit of incidence is per 1,000,000 person-years) was 10.15 (95% CI 7.23–13.08) among children aged 0 to 4 years and 5.39 (95% CI 4.18–6.60) in those aged 0 to 9 years. During 2010–2014 (to allow 5 years of follow-up), the mean incidence of retinoblastoma by birth cohort analysis in Poland was 4.89 (95% CI 4.04–5.74) per 100,000 live births, corresponding to an incidence of 1 per 20,561 (95% CI 15,855–25,267) live births. In Poland, 14.6% of children with retinoblastoma had enucleation of the eye globe, 76.8% received different types of chemotherapy combined with focal treatment, 5.9% were treated with external beam radiotherapy, and 2.7% were treated with focal treatments only. Conclusions: The incidence of retinoblastoma and the pattern of medical management of retinoblastoma in Poland was similar to that reported in developed countries in Western Europe, Asia, and North America.
