PURPOSE: To evaluate macular morphology and function in diabetic macular edema (DME) over the course of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment with Ranibizumab. METHODS: A consecutive series of 39 study eyes with centre-involving DME were included in this study. In all subjects, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) according ETDRS protocol, fluorescein angiography (FA), microperimetric macular sensitivity (MP) and Spectral Domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) cross-sectional scans were obtained before treatment and after 3 monthly applied intravitreal Ranibizumab injections. Six different morphological qualities [IS/OS layer integrity, outer nuclear layer (ONL) cysts, ONL cyst size, inner nuclear layer (INL) cysts, blocking phenomenon and subretinal fluid] were graded of each cross-sectional OCT scan before and over the course of treatment by two experienced graders. Correlation analyses between functional and morphological parameters were obtained. RESULTS: Mean BCVA increased from 26 ± 14 to 33 ± 13 letters after 3 consecutive monthly applied Ranibizumab injections (p < 0.001). Central retinal thickness (CRT) decreased from 504 ± 144 to 387 ± 122 μm (p < 0.001). Over the course of treatment, IS/OS continuity improved (index: 0.56 ± 0.52 to 0.43 ± 0.49, Z = -1.415, p = 0.157), ONL cyst prevalence and size decreased significantly (index: 0.61 ± 0.44 to 0.56 ± 0.35, Z = -3.41, p = 0.001 and 1.75 ± 0.88 to 1.17 ± 1.05, Z = -4.02, p < 0.001), INL cyst prevalence decreased (index: 0.35 ± 0.52 to 0.28 ± 0.52, Z = -1.60, p = 0.109), blocking phenomenon did not change significantly (index: 00.12 ± 0.16 to 0.13 ± 0.15, Z = -0.45, p = 0.656) and subretinal fluid almost disappeared (index: 0.10 ± 0.24 vs. 0.00 ± 0.01, Z = -2.56, p = 0.011). Correlation analyses revealed highest significant correlations between ONL cyst prevalence and their size and CRT as well as BCVA and MP before treatment and over the course of treatment. CONCLUSIONS: ONL cysts and their size as morphological parameters correlate with retinal function measured with BCVA and microperimetry before and over the course of anti-VEGF therapy with Ranibizumab in patients with DME.
目的:评估玻璃体内抗血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)治疗Ranibizumab 治疗糖尿病性黄斑水肿(DME)过程中的黄斑形态和功能。
方法:本研究纳入了 39 只中心性 DME 研究眼的连续系列。在所有受试者中,均根据 ETDRS 方案、荧光素血管造影(FA)、微视野黄斑敏感性(MP)和谱域光学相干断层扫描(SD-OCT)进行最佳矫正视力(BCVA),并在治疗前和 3 个月后获得横截面 OCT 扫描。两名经验丰富的评分员对每个横截面 OCT 扫描的 6 种不同形态质量[IS/OS 层完整性、外核层(ONL)囊肿、ONL 囊肿大小、内核层(INL)囊肿、阻塞现象和视网膜下液]进行分级。获得功能和形态参数之间的相关分析。
结果:连续 3 次每月应用 Ranibizumab 注射后,平均 BCVA 从 26 ± 14 增加到 33 ± 13 个字母(p < 0.001)。中央视网膜厚度(CRT)从 504 ± 144 降至 387 ± 122 μm(p < 0.001)。在治疗过程中,IS/OS 连续性改善(指数:0.56 ± 0.52 至 0.43 ± 0.49,Z = -1.415,p = 0.157),ONL 囊肿的发生率和大小显著降低(指数:0.61 ± 0.44 至 0.56 ± 0.35,Z = -3.41,p = 0.001 和 1.75 ± 0.88 至 1.17 ± 1.05,Z = -4.02,p < 0.001),INL 囊肿的发生率降低(指数:0.35 ± 0.52 至 0.28 ± 0.52,Z = -1.60,p = 0.109),阻塞现象无明显变化(指数:00.12 ± 0.16 至 0.13 ± 0.15,Z = -0.45,p = 0.656),视网膜下液几乎消失(指数:0.10 ± 0.24 与 0.00 ± 0.01,Z = -2.56,p = 0.011)。相关性分析显示,在治疗前和治疗过程中,ONL 囊肿的发生率及其大小与 CRT 以及 BCVA 和 MP 之间存在最高显著相关性。
结论:在 DME 患者中,抗 VEGF 治疗 Ranibizumab 治疗过程中,ONL 囊肿及其大小等形态学参数与视网膜功能(通过 BCVA 和微视野测量)相关。
