Combined steroid and antibiotic therapy vs antibiotics alone

Complete resolution of endophthalmitis at 3 months' · eyes with acute endophthalmitis following an intraocular procedure (e.g. surgery, intravitreous injection)

It is very uncertain whether combined steroid and antibiotic therapy changes complete resolution of endophthalmitis at 3 months' compared with antibiotics alone (very low certainty).

Combined steroid and antibiotic therapy vs antibiotics alone

Visual acuity · eyes with acute endophthalmitis following an intraocular procedure (e.g. surgery, intravitreous injection)

Combined steroid and antibiotic therapy may leads to higher visual acuity 6/6 to 6/18 at 3 months' compared with antibiotics alone (low certainty).

Combined steroid and antibiotic therapy vs antibiotics alone

Adverse events at 3 to 12 months' · eyes with acute endophthalmitis following an intraocular procedure (e.g. surgery, intravitreous injection)

Combined steroid and antibiotic therapy showed no clear difference in adverse events at 3 to 12 months' compared with antibiotics alone (low certainty).

Tocilizumab every 4 weeks vs placebo

Proportion of participants with sustained remission (as defined by study investigators) at ≥ 12 months · adults aged over 50 years with giant cell arteritis

Tocilizumab every 4 weeks probably leads to higher proportion of participants with sustained remission (as defined by… compared with placebo (moderate certainty).
