When weapon test data are insufficient, Bayesian analyses in small sample circumstance should be considered and the test data should be provided by simulations. The several Bayesian approaches are discussed and some limitations are founded. An improvement is put forward after limitations of Bayesian approaches available are analyzed and the improved approach is applied to assessment of some new weapon performance.展开更多

Methods:.A total of 255 cases (301 eyes) who received small incision extracapsular cataract extraction through a superotemporal incision with IOL implantation in the Department of Ophthalmology, Yuyan District Hospital of Guiyang were enrolled in this clinical trial..Postoperative best-corrected visual acuity and astigmatism were measured. The patients underwent 24-week follow-up. Results: In total, 166 patients (65.1%, 166 eyes) completed follow-up..Astigmatism gradually declined between 1 and 12-week postoperatively, and stabilized after 12 weeks. Among 166 patients,.125(75.3%).had astigmatism > 0.5 D at 24 weeks post-operatively,.showing mostly with-the-rule astigmatism. Visual acuity steadily improved up to 12 weeks, and tended to stabilize subsequently..Over the period of 24-week postoperatively,.visual acuity was negatively correlated with astigmatism (r=-0.691,P<0.05). Conclusion:Superotemporal small incision extracapsular extraction combined with IOL implantation is associated with modest astigmatism which declines over the post-operative period.展开更多
