Clinical implications of aqueous humor studies in uveitis

R Witmer. Am J Ophthalmol. 1978 Jul.

Abstract

We studied the serologic findings in serum and aqueous humor samples from 693 cases of uveitis. Specimens were tested for the presence of humoral antibodies against tuberculosis, toxoplasmosis, antistreptolysin-O, herpes simplex and herpes zoster viruses, mumps virus, and adenovirus. Serologic analyses rarely indicated tuberculous or streptococcal infections, but frequently showed toxoplasmosis and viral diseases.
