Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
PURPOSE: To compare rates of early postoperative hypotony and intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation between 23-gauge sutureless vitrectomies with and without phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. METHODS: This study reviewed the medical records of 302 eyes of patients who underwent primary 23-gauge sutureless vitrectomy for the complications of proliferative diabetic retinopathy. A case series of 207 eyes that underwent combined vitrectomy and cataract surgery (combined group) was compared with that of 95 eyes that underwent vitrectomy only (vitrectomy group): The eyes that remained phakic after the vitrectomy were excluded from this study. The main outcome measures were postoperative hypotony (IOP < 6 mmHg or IOP < 10 mmHg with choroidal detachment) and IOP elevation (>30 mmHg). RESULTS: Postoperative hypotony was identified in 4 (1.9%) of 207 eyes in combined group, but in 7 (7.4%) of 95 eyes in vitrectomy group (P = 0.048). Rate of IOP elevation was very low and not different between the two groups. The multivariate analysis showed that vitrectomy without cataract surgery was associated with the postoperative hypotony (odds ratio = 4.6, P = 0.045). CONCLUSION: The incidence of early postoperative hypotony was lower in combined sutureless vitrectomy and cataract surgery than in sutureless vitrectomy alone and that of IOP elevation was very low in both groups. The maintenance of a stable IOP with a low risk of IOP fluctuation may be an additional advantage of sutureless diabetic vitrectomy combined with cataract surgery. © Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
