Abstract

To report the cumulative incidence of retinal detachment (RD) and glaucoma following phacoemulsification in Boston Terriers and Shih Tzu in the southeastern United States over a 14-year period and investigate the potential predisposing risk factors. Medical records of 83 Shih Tzu and 52 Boston Terriers that underwent phacoemulsification between 2000 and 2014, with or without intraocular lens placement, were reviewed. For a comparison population, phacoemulsification data from 45 Labrador Retrievers, 73 Schnauzers, and 159 Bichon Frises were evaluated. Information collected included signalment, concurrent systemic diseases, preoperative findings, surgical details, postoperative complications, and duration of follow-up. Percentages of patients to develop RD and glaucoma were assessed, as well as potential risk factors. Minimum of 3 months of follow-up after surgery was required for inclusion. Retinal detachment occurred in 7.7% (7/91 eyes) and 8.9% (11/123 eyes) and glaucoma occurred in 38.0% (35/91 eyes) and 29.3% (36/123 eyes) of Boston Terriers and Shih Tzu, respectively. Mean follow-up time was 804 days. Neither Boston Terriers nor Shih Tzu were at increased risk for RD or glaucoma when compared to the other breeds, and no significant risk factors for either breed were identified in the final multivariate analysis. The cumulative incidence of RD in Boston Terrier and Shih Tzu reported here was in agreement with previously reported nonbreed specific percentages (2.7-8.4%). The cumulative incidence of glaucoma in this population of Boston Terriers and Shih Tzu was higher than previously reported nonbreed specific percentages (5.1-18.8%).

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 May 2023.
All research outputs
#14,511,467
of 24,477,448 outputs
Outputs from Veterinary Ophthalmology
#224
of 1,051 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#164,442
of 321,522 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Veterinary Ophthalmology
#2
of 20 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,477,448 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,051 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.3. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 321,522 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 20 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its contemporaries.
