“…There are two possible explanations for the phenomenon. Firstly, the relatively few outcome numbers of the three diseases, which might lead to some statistical bias because of the low general incidence of them [ 34 , 35 , 36 ]. Second, the endophthalmitis infectious keratitis would deteriorate to endophthalmitis in some conditions [ 37 ].…”

Background and objectives: We aimed to evaluate the correlation between periodontal disease (PD) and following ocular diseases via the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Subjects were regarded as having PD according to the diagnostic codes. For comparison, each subject with PD was matched to one non-PD individual from the database after exclusion. The main outcome was defined as the development of infectious keratitis, endophthalmitis, orbital cellulitis, lacrimal duct infection, uveitis and infectious scleritis. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to yield the adjusted hazard ratios (aHR) of ocular diseases between the study and control groups. Results: A total of 426,594 subjects were enrolled in both the study and control groups. In the multivariable analysis, significantly higher rates of infectious keratitis (aHR: 1.094, 95% CI: 1.030–1.161), uveitis (aHR: 1.144, 95% CI: 1.074–1.218) and infectious scleritis (aHR: 1.270, 95% CI: 1.114–1.449) were found in the study group. Concerning the PD interval, infectious keratitis (aHR: 1.159, 95% CI: 1.041–1.291) and infectious scleritis (aHR: 1.345, 95% CI: 1.055–1.714) would significantly occur in PD patients with an interval shorter than two years, individuals with a PD interval that ranged from two to five years were under a higher risk of developing uveitis (aHR: 1.184, 95% CI: 1.065–1.315) and infectious scleritis (aHR: 1.386, 95% CI: 1.125–1.708), and the rate of uveitis (aHR: 1.149, 95% CI: 1.038–1.272) was significantly higher if PD persisted more than five years. Conclusions: The presence of PD was moderately associated with the risk of developing infectious keratitis, uveitis and infectious scleritis.

“…Dacryocystitis is the most common infection of lacrimal apparatus with unknown etiology. In the literature, it has been reported that female gender is a risk factor for the development of dacryocystitis [9]. Narrower nasolacrimal canal in females compared to males and hormonal changes may play a role [9][10][11].…”

Purpose – to study the prevalence of endonasal pathology in patients with chronicdacryocystitis (CD) and to justify the expediency of simultaneous operations in suchpatients.Material and methods. The study included 109 patients with CD, who were examinedand operated on in 2004-2014 at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Faculty ofInternship and Postgraduate Education "Donetsk National Medical University of theMinistry of Health of Ukraine". Examination of patients included consultation with anophthalmologist, lavage of the lacrimal ducts, endoscopy of the nasal cavity, computedtomography. All patients underwent tearing by performing endonasal endoscopicdacryocystorhinostomy (EEDCR).Results. Endonasal pathology was detected in 85.3% of patients: curvature of the nasalseptum - in 71.6% of patients, hypertrophy of the inferior turbinate - in 59.6%, bulloushypertrophy of the middle turbinate - in 5.5%, hypertrophy of the uncinate process- in 6.4%, hyperpneumatization of Agger nasi cells - in 14.7% of patients. The mostcommon combination was curvature of the nasal septum and hypertrophy of the inferiorturbinates - in 56.0% of cases. Inflammatory pathology in the paranasal sinuses wasin 38.5% of cases: ethmoiditis - in 26.6% of patients, maxillary sinusitis - in 13.8%,sphenoiditis - in 1.8% of patients. In 94.6% of patients, the correction of intranasalpathology was performed simultaneously with EEDCR. In 6.4% of these patients therewere complications - nosebleeding after removal of tampons. Simultaneous operationsdid not significantly increase the percentage and variants of complications comparedwith isolated endonasal operations.Conclusion. The vast majority of patients with chronic dacryocystitis have pathologyof the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, which may contribute to the developmentof dacryocystitis and relapse of the disease after operation. Surgical correction ofconcomitant endonasal pathology in patients with chronic dacryocystitis should beperformed simultaneously with endonasal endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy.
