Ophthalmic Diseases in Meningitis Within the Pediatric Population
CONCLUSION: This chart review highlights the ocular abnormalities found in children who suffer from meningitis and present to a tertiary-care centre in a high sociodemographic index country. Complications may be lasting. Treating ophthalmologists should be cognizant of potential ocular abnormalities among meningitis patients. We advocate for increased awareness of this association among health care providers.PMID:38036046 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcjo.2023.11.002 (Source: Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology)

Prevalence and risk factors of lymphatic dysfunction in cirrhosis patients with refractory ascites: An often unconsidered mechanism
CONCLUSION: Lymphatic dysfunction is common in cirrhosis patients with RA. Significant indicators of its presence include hypoproteinemia and lymphocytopenia, which are likely due to the loss of lymphatic fluid from the circulation. Future efforts to mobilize fluid in these patients should focus on methods to improve lymphatic drainage.PMID:37970615 | PMC:PMC10642429 | DOI:10.4254/wjh.v15.i10.1140 (Source: World Journal of Hepatology)
