Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 2024;65(1):16-26
Purpose:
To compare the accuracy of nine intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas.
Methods:
This study is retrospective consecutive case series. A total of 228 eyes of 228 patients who underwent uncomplicated cataract surgery between October 2015 and March 2021 were included. The accuracy of nine IOL calculation formulas (Kane, Emmetropia verifying optical version, Hill-radial basis function, Olsen, Barrett Universal II [Barrett II], Haigis, Holladay, Hoffer, and SRK/T) was compared and analyzed using differences between the predicted refractive power and actual refractive power at 2 months after cataract surgery. Mean prediction error (ME), mean absolute error (MAE), median absolute error (MedAE), and the percentage of eyes that were within ± 0.50 diopters (D), ± 0.75 D, and ± 1.00 D of the target refraction were calculated for each formula.
Results:
For all eyes, Haigis formula was the most accurate in MAE, followed by Barrett II formula. Comparing the probability of MAE within 0.50 D, Haigis formula showed the highest accuracy. A total of 20 eyes of 20 patients had more than 25 mm axial length. Regarding MAE, Hoffer Q was the most accurate, followed by the Olsen formula. Comparing the probability of MAE within 0.50 D, the Hoffer Q formula was the most accurate. A total of 24 eyes of 24 patients had more than 46 D keratometry. Regarding MAE and MedAE, Haigis was the most accurate, followed by the Barrett II formula. Comparing the probability of MAE within 0.5 D, Holladay formula was the most accurate.
Conclusions
Barrett II and Haigis formulas showed greater accuracy for all patients when we determined IOL power before cataract surgery. Hoffer Q, Olsen, and Barrett II formulas showed higher accuracy for long axial length. And Haigis and Barrett II were the most accurate for steep keratometry.

Coronary restenosis is still regarded as Achilles' Hill of interventional cardiology despite relentless efforts of many investigators. Recent experimental and clinical studies have suggested that both gamma and beta radiation can be reduce restenosis after angioplasty. Currently, intracoronary brachytherapy for the prevention of restenosis has become a new evolving treatment modality in interventional cardiology. This report discusses a physical aspect of gamma and beta radiation, initial clinical results and delivery systems used in intracoronary brachytherapy. We shall take a brief overview of methods and their advantages in intracoronary brachytherapy. Future work should provide further insight for the best way of treating restenosis.

A closing wedge distal femoral osteotomy is a procedure to reduce pain and delay the progression of degenerative arthritis of knee by moving the weight bearing line from the lateral compartment to the medial side while preserving the knee joint. Age, weight bearing line, and the degree of arthritis are the essential factors to be considered at the time of surgery. The indications for distal femoral osteotomy are as follows. All patients are aged less than 65 years old, normal medial compartment of the knee with normal patello femoral joint, valgus deformity with lateral degenerative arthritis, younger patients with lateral osteochondritis, congenital osteochondrosis, and recurrent patellar dislocation with genu valgum. The distal femoral osteotomy provides the advantages of rapid pain reduction and short rehabilitation in young and active patients and patients who are subjected to heavy loads on the knee.

The present study reports a case of eosinophilic granuloma of the mandibular condyle. Eosinophilic granulomas on the mandibular condyle are very rare, but there are several common clinical and radiographic presentations. The clinical presentations involve swelling on preauricular area, limitation of opening, TMJ pain, etc. The radiographic presentations involve radiolucent lytic condylar lesion with or without pathologic fracture. Sometimes new bone formations are observed. The purpose of the article is to add new cases to the literatures.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the CT findings in patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) involving the orbit. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Orbital CT scans of six children with pathologically proven LCH were retrospectively analyzed. Follow-up CT (n = 5) and MR (n = 1) imaging findings were also revi ewed. RESULTS: Initial CT scans revealed varying degree of bone destruction with soft-tissue masses, and on nonenhanced images the mean attenuation value was 44 Hounsfield units(HU). All masses showed mild to moderate enhancement with a mean attenuation value of 74 HU. The bony margins abutting onto soft tissue masses were irregular but clearly demarcated. No evidence of calcification or periosteal reaction was noted. Suprasellar mass and rib involvement was noted in one patient and hepatos-plenomegaly in two. Follow-up CT and MR images showed that the soft tissue masses were almost completely resolve d, with bone remodeling and reossification. CONCLUSION: A soft tissue mass with irregular but clearly demarcated bone destruction is thought to be a characteristic finding of LCH involving the orbit. Follow-up images after treatment showed bone remodeling and reossification.

A 43-year-old male was admitted for reconstruction surgery to repair posterolateral rotatory instability of the knee. At the request of the surgeon, ranitidine was slowly administered intravenously immediately before the patient was transferred to the operating room to reduce the incidence of acid reflux. A few minutes later, during the transfer of the patient, anaphylaxis developed with hypotension, nausea, dyspnea, change in consciousness and urticaria. The patient had no previous history of any allergic tendency. After appropriate management, he recovered without complication. Following surgery, an allergic skin prick test was performed to determine if the patient was allergic to any of the drugs used during the surgery. According to the results, only ranitidine showed a positive reaction.

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the predictive factors associated with traffic injury severity and pregnancy outcomes in traffic accidents during pregnancy. METHODS: We performed a retrospective case review study to assess 109 pregnant women who were injured by traffic accidents and were admitted to Gangneung Asan Hospital and KyungHee University Hospital from September 1996 to January 2009. The clinical data of maternal age, parity, gestational age, symptoms of the patients that happened after accidents, accident location, seat position in vehicle, maternal injury severity which was quantified with injury severity score (ISS), pregnancy outcomes, and subchorionic hematoma were reviewed with the medical records or the telephone interviews. Adverse pregnant outcomes included abortion, preterm delivery and fetal death in uterus. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the predictive factors for injury severity and pregnancy outcomes after traffic accidents. RESULTS: Pedestrian injury and first trimester were significantly associated with severity of maternal injury. Multivariate analysis revealed that abdominal pain was independently predictive factor for the severity of maternal injury. The second trimester, pedestrian injury, right front seat of vehicle, severity of maternal injury and subchorionic hematoma were significantly associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Multivariate analysis revealed that severity of maternal injury and subchorionic hematoma were independently predictive factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes. CONCLUSION: According to predictive factors for pregnancy outcomes, the severity of maternal injury estimated with ISS score and subchorionic hematoma seems to be helpful indicators in the management of traffic accident injuries during pregnancy.

BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the effects of family type and sociodemographic factors on medical treatment, health behavior, and subjective health status in Koreans 60 years and older. METHODS: This study was based on data from the 5th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), a nationwide health interview survey using a rolling sampling design involving complex, stratified, multistage, probability cluster. Our subjects included those > or =60 years of age (n=1,946) participating in the KNHANES 2010. Family type was categorized into 7 groups according to cohabitation: alone, couple cohabitation (living with a spouse), parent(s) cohabitation (couple living with parent(s)), offspring cohabitation (no spouse, living with offspring), couple offspring cohabitation (couple living with offspring), couple offspring parents cohabitation (couple living with parent(s) and offspring), and others. Logistic regression analyses were used to examine the association of family type and sociodemographic factors with health care. RESULTS: The most common family type was couple cohabitation (38.26+/-1.8%). In this group, the percentage of non-receipt of needed medical care (odds ratio [OR], 0.60; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.42 to 0.87) and current smoking rate (OR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.20 to 0.50) were significantly lower than those living alone. Among the sociodemographic charicteristics, male gender, apartment dwelling, high middle household income, 2 member family, education higher than middle school, and possessing own house were associated with good health care behavior. CONCLUSION: This study shows that couples have better health care behavior than other family types, in particular, limited smoking, appropriate medical treatment, and positive subjective health status. Those living alone visit medical clinics less often and have a negative subjective health status.
