To investigate the association between the time of occurrence of intraocular pressure (IOP) peaks during the water-drinking test (WDT) and visual field damage in a cohort of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients.
In this retrospective, cross-sectional study, 98 eyes from 49 consecutive POAG patients were followed in a referral clinical practice. The relationship between the time when IOP peaks occurred during the WDT and the visual field mean deviation (MD) assessed with 24-2 visual field was tested with mixed-effects models.
MD value was significantly associated with the time of IOP peak occurrence ( = 0.020) when adjusting for the number of medications, but not with the IOP peak values ( 0.238).
The time of IOP peaks occurrence during the WDT was associated with glaucoma severity among treated POAG patients.
在一组原发性开角型青光眼(POAG)患者中,研究饮水试验(WDT)期间眼压(IOP)峰值出现时间与视野损害之间的关联。
在这项回顾性横断面研究中,对一家转诊临床机构中连续49例POAG患者的98只眼睛进行了随访。采用混合效应模型检验了WDT期间IOP峰值出现时间与用24-2视野评估的视野平均偏差(MD)之间的关系。
在调整用药数量后,MD值与IOP峰值出现时间显著相关(P = 0.020),但与IOP峰值无关(P = 0.238)。
在接受治疗的POAG患者中,WDT期间IOP峰值出现时间与青光眼严重程度相关。
