In this PRISMA-compliant systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to assess the efficacy of golimumab (GOL) against non-infectious uveitis (NIU).
We included eight articles in the meta-analysis. The primary outcome was inflammation remission. Secondary outcomes were changes in the number of uveitis relapses/attacks, mean best-corrected visual acuity, central macular thickness, and systemic corticosteroid-sparing effects.
In total, eight case series with 172 patients (43.6% female) were collected. Patients had 75% (95% CI: 56-87%) of remission; 42% (0.12-0.80) of patients showed improved visual acuity. The average central macular thickness decline was 38 μm (-56.51-18.54). The pooled results showed a significant decrease in the use of systemic corticosteroids.
This study was limited by the use of non-RCT designs, limited sample sizes for outcomes, and heterogenetic underlying diseases. Our results suggest that GOL is effective against NIU. However, further evidence and analyses are required. (Funding: None; PROSPERO registration: CRD42021266214.).
在这项符合 PRISMA 标准的系统评价和荟萃分析中,我们旨在评估戈利木单抗(GOL)治疗非感染性葡萄膜炎(NIU)的疗效。
我们将 8 篇文章纳入荟萃分析。主要结局是炎症缓解。次要结局是葡萄膜炎复发/发作次数、最佳矫正视力均值、中央黄斑厚度和全身皮质类固醇节省效应的变化。
共收集了 8 项病例系列研究,共 172 例患者(43.6%为女性)。患者的缓解率为 75%(95%CI:56-87%);42%(0.12-0.80)的患者视力得到改善。平均中央黄斑厚度下降 38 μm(-56.51-18.54)。汇总结果显示,全身皮质类固醇的使用显著减少。
本研究受到非随机对照设计、结局样本量有限以及潜在疾病异质性的限制。我们的结果表明 GOL 对 NIU 有效。然而,还需要更多的证据和分析。(资金来源:无;PROSPERO 注册号:CRD42021266214。)
