Abstract

We aimed to compare the retinal nerve fiber layer, ganglion cell layer, inner plexiform layer, and the choroid thickness between patients with Behcet disease and healthy subjects by using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Ninety eyes of 45 healthy subjects and 104 eyes of 52 patients with Behcet disease were included in this study. Rheumatoid factor and C-reactive protein levels were measured by blood testing in the patients. The mean thickness of the retinal nerve fiber layer, ganglion cells layer, and inner plexiform layer were significantly lower in patients with Behcet's disease than in the healthy subjects. The mean choroidal thickness was significantly higher in the patients than in the healthy subjects. SD-OCT was a useful and non-invasive tool for the detection of retinal nerve degeneration and choroidal changes in patients with Behcet disease even in the absence of ocular involvement.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 14 June 2017.
All research outputs
#20,660,571
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Arquivos Brasileiros de Oftalmologia
#256
of 446 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#320,195
of 421,709 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Arquivos Brasileiros de Oftalmologia
#10
of 15 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 446 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.5. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 421,709 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 15 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
