Efficacy of B-cell Targeted Therapy With Rituximab in Patients With Active Moderate to Severe Graves' Orbitopathy: A Randomized Controlled Study

TL;DR: The better eye motility outcome, visual functioning of the quality of life assessment, and the reduced number of surgical procedures in patients after RTX seem to suggest a disease-modifying effect of the drug.
Journal ArticleDOI

Therapeutic outcomes of high-dose intravenous steroids in the treatment of dysthyroid optic neuropathy.

TL;DR: High-dose iv-MP was effective in permanently restoring visual function in about 40% of the eyes treated, and the presence of optic disc swelling at diagnosis and persistent active disease at two weeks were good predictors of unresponsiveness to steroids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Small dose of rituximab for graves orbitopathy: New insights into the mechanism of action

TL;DR: Bupropion is a common medication, and it is unclear why other cases have not been reported; the absence of other similar reports may reflect underreporting; alternatively, this patient may harbor a rare, private polymorphism that causes bupropion or one of its metabolites to become a particularly potent choroidal vasodilator.
