title: [The effects and related risk factors on cataract surgery in Shandong province].
abstract: Objective:To explore the efficacy and related risk factors on cataract surgery in Shandong province.Methods:A total of 108 190 cataract surgeries which were reported from 17 cities of Shandong province during January 2013 to December were reviewed. The demographic information, preoperative examination, surgery related information (including date of surgery, surgical methods, and intraoperative complications), and postoperative situations (naked eye visual acuity, curative efficacy after three days, and postoperative complications) were reviewed. Wilcoxon signed-ranks, univariate and orderly multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used according to nature of the data.Results:There were 64 852 female patients (59.9 %) and 43 338 male patients (40.1%) in all 108 190 cases. About 36.5% patients (39 496 cases), the highest proportion, were 71 to 80 years of age, 31.26% patients (33 711 cases) were 61 to 70 years old and 13.6% patients (14 720 cases) were over 81 years old. Visual acuity increased significantly after surgery (Z=165.24,P<0.01). Simple factor Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative corrected visual acuity less than 0.1 (OR=2.30 95%CI:0.59 to 1.07), complications (OR=8.50,95%CI: 1.34 to 2.94), congenital cataract (OR=1.69, 95%CI: 0.22 to 0.83), extracapsular cataract extraction (OR=1.99, 95%CI:0.57 to 0.81), postoperative complications in three days (OR=7.46, 95%CI:1.77 to 2.25) were predictors of worse outcome after cataract surgery. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the efficacy of cataract surgery were influenced by history of diabetes (OR=1.79, 95%CI: 0.46 to 0.71), history of hypertension (OR=3.49, 95%CI: 1.07-1.43), postoperative complications in three days (OR=3.91, 95%CI: 1.53 to 1.20) and extracapsular cataract extraction (OR=1.54, 95%CI: 0.20 to 0.66). Young male patients (OR=0.82, 95%CI:-0.28 to -0.12), normal preoperative intraocular pressure (OR=0.79, 95%CI: -0.38 to -0.10) and pupil (OR=0.42, 95%CI:-1.17 to -0.57) were predictors of better outcome.Conclusions:Visual acuity improved significantly after cataract surgery in Shandong province. The efficacy of cataract surgery was influenced by many factors. It is important to control systemic diseases and to choose modern operation method. (Chin J Ophthalmol,2016,52: 929-935).
