Abstract Background Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is one of the possible conditions underlying ocular surface disorders (OSD). Prevalence of MGD in dogs affected by OSD has not yet been reported. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of MGD among OSD canine patients, which had been assessed by non-contact infrared meibography and interferometry, and to identify MGD associated factors that might guide its diagnosis. Medical records of canine patients examined for OSD between 2016 and 2019 were reviewed. The frequency of MGD was evaluated within different categories (skull conformation, gender, eye and STT-1). The putative MGD risk factors and frequency of MGD within grades of interferometry were evaluated in a regression analysis model and reported as odd ratios (ORs). Results One hundred fifty eyes from 81 dogs with OSD were included with median age 75 months (range 3–192) and female representation with 52%. MGD was present in 70% of the examined eyes. MGD risk was higher in males ORadj = 3.015 (95% CI: 1.395–6.514) (P = 0.005) and older patients ORadj = 1.207 (95% CI: 1.081–1.348) (P = 0.001). No significant differences were found between left and right eyes (P = 0.66) or between the two types of skull conformation (P = 0.477) and MGD presence. MGD was associated to the lowest lipid layer (LL) thickness, as assessed by interferometry (grade 0) OR = 16.00 (95% CI: 2.104–121.68) (P < 0.001). STT values were not significantly associated with the presence of MGD (P > 0.05). Conclusions MGD is a common underlying pathology in OSD. Being male and higher age are risk factors for MGD. An interferometry grade 0 may guide OSD diagnosis towards MGD.

Abstract Background To explore the research areas, hotspots, and progress of meibomian gland dysfunction through bibliometrics. Methods Related publications were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection from 2011 to 2020. VOSviewer1.6.16, Citespace.5.7.R2, and GraphPad Prism 8 were used to visualize the distribution of countries, research institutions, journals, authors, keywords, and annual publication numbers in this field. Results A total number of 716 relevant publications were retrieved. The United States and Keio University ranked the first among the countries and organizations with the most publications. Cornea, Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, and Ocular Surface were the top three journals with the highest publication counts and citations. The authors who contributed to this topic mainly formed three clusters which manifested the research areas, and the extracted keywords mainly formed four clusters which manifested the hotspots were explored. Conclusions The research areas and hotspots of meibomian gland dysfunction were as follow: (1) Pathogenesis or potential etiology of meibomian gland dysfunction; (2) Diagnosis of meibomian gland dysfunction; (3) Therapy of meibomian gland dysfunction and the International Workshop`s dedication to it; (4) Epidemiology of meibomian gland dysfunction.

The state of the ocular surface and visual functions depends on ocular adnexal tissues. Involutional changes of the eyelids and meibomian glands occur with age. There is a lack of information about possible relationship between involutional lower lid malposition and meibomian gland dysfunction. Purpose. To evaluate meibomian glands dysfunction in patients with lower eyelid malposition. Methods. Two groups of patients were enrolled: 26 patients (52 eyelids) with involutional lower eyelid malposition and a control group of 22 patients (44 eyelids) without eyelid malposition. Groups were comparable by age and sex. The clinical examination included general eye examination; evaluation of the degree of the eyelids laxity, signs of retractors dehiscence and clinical score of meibomian gland’s dysfunction (The International Workshop on Meibomian Gland Dysfunction, 2011). Results. Atonic eyelid changes and meibomian gland dysfunction were significantly more expressed in patients with involutional eyelid malposition (р < 0,05). Conclusion. Our study showed an age-independent clinical relationship between involutional lower eyelid malposition and dysfunction of meibomian glands.
