Canine Corneal Ulcer Outcomes After Conjunctival Graft Surgery, 34 Cases

Tássia Moara Amorim authored a clinical study evaluating the impact of uveitis score on vision recovery in 34 dog eyes with various corneal ulcers treated via bulbar conjunctival pedicle graft. The dataset likely contains patient records from the study, including ulcer type, uveitis severity, and post-operative visual status. The overall success rate for vision recovery was reported as 73.52%.

Use Cases

• Predicting vision recovery likelihood based on pre-operative uveitis score.
• Comparing surgical outcomes across different types of corneal ulcers (e.g., perforated vs. non-perforated).
• Analyzing breed predisposition, as brachycephalic breeds accounted for 91.11% of cases.

Strengths

• Study reports specific case counts for five distinct corneal conditions (deep ulcer, collagenolytic ulcer, descemetocele, perforation, iris prolapse).
• Provides statistical analysis results, including p-values for comparisons between visual outcomes and uveitis severity.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
