PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to analyze the retinal sensitivity under photopic, mesopic, and scotopic conditions in a cohort of patients affected with KCNV2-associated retinopathy. METHODS: Cross-sectional evaluation of molecularly confirmed individuals was conducted. Data were obtained prospectively. The main microperimetry parameters analyzed were mean sensitivity (MS) and number of floor effects (noF) in the central macular zone (CMZ; central 6 degrees) and peripheral macular zone (PMZ; 6 to 10 degrees). Interocular symmetry was also assessed. RESULTS: The MS under photopic, mesopic, and scotopic conditions were, respectively, 20.2 (6.3-29.5, ±6.5), 16.2 (3.7-23.1, ±5.3), and 1.3 (0-13.3, ±3.8) in the right eyes, and 21.1 (9.8-28.9, ±6.1), 16.8 (9.6-23.5, ±4.0), and 1.1 (0-12.4, ±3.5) in the left eyes. MS was highly symmetric between eyes (Pearson correlation coefficient) in photopic (r = 0.96, P < 0.0001), mesopic (r = 0.9, P < 0.0001), and scotopic (r = 0.98, P < 0.0001) testing conditions. MS was also highly symmetric (Pearson coefficient) in the photopic CMZ (r = 0.97, P = 0.0001) and PMZ (r = 0.95, P = 0.0002), mesopic CMZ (r = 0.94, P = 0.0003), and PMZ (r = 0.92, P = 0.0009), and scotopic CMZ (r = 0.99, P < 0.0001) and PMZ (r = 0.99, P < 0.0001).The mean noF (± standard deviation [SD]; range) was 4.6 (SD = ±5.3, range = 0-16) in photopic, 5.0 (SD = ±5.4, range = 0-15) in mesopic, and 23.2 (SD = ±8.6, range = 0-28) in scotopic conditions. Subject 01-041 was the only affected individual in which no floor effect was found. Simple linear regression revealed a significant inverse relationship between age and MS, and a direct relationship between age and noF. CONCLUSIONS: KCNV2-associated retinopathy is a largely symmetric disease from a functional perspective. Despite the early decrease in scotopic retinal sensitivity, our data suggests a large window for photoreceptor rescue with novel treatments, such as gene therapy.
目的:本研究旨在分析患有KCNV2相关性视网膜病变的一组患者在明视、中间视觉和暗视条件下的视网膜敏感度。 方法:对经分子确诊的个体进行横断面评估。数据为前瞻性获取。分析的主要微视野参数为中心黄斑区(CMZ;中心6度)和周边黄斑区(PMZ;6至10度)的平均敏感度(MS)和最低点效应数量(noF)。还评估了双眼对称性。 结果:右眼在明视、中间视觉和暗视条件下的MS分别为20.2(6.3 - 29.5,±6.5)、16.2(3.7 - 23.1,±5.3)和1.3(0 - 13.3,±3.8),左眼分别为21.1(9.8 - 28.9,±6.1)、16.8(9.6 - 23.5,±4.0)和1.1(0 - 12.4,±3.5)。在明视(r = 0.96,P < 0.0001)、中间视觉(r = 0.9,P < 0.0001)和暗视(r = 0.98,P < 0.0001)测试条件下,双眼间MS具有高度对称性(皮尔逊相关系数)。在明视CMZ(r = 0.97,P = 0.0001)和PMZ(r = 0.95,P = 0.0002)、中间视觉CMZ(r = 0.94,P = 0.0003)和PMZ(r = 0.92,P = 0.0009)以及暗视CMZ(r = 0.99,P < 0.0001)和PMZ(r = 0.99,P < 0.0001)中,MS也具有高度对称性(皮尔逊系数)。明视条件下平均noF(±标准差[SD];范围)为4.6(SD = ±5.3,范围 = 0 - 16),中间视觉条件下为5.0(SD = ±5.4,范围 = 0 - 15),暗视条件下为23.2(SD = ±8.6,范围 = 0 - 28)。受试者01 - 041是唯一未发现最低点效应的受影响个体。简单线性回归显示年龄与MS之间存在显著负相关,年龄与noF之间存在正相关。 结论:从功能角度来看,KCNV2相关性视网膜病变在很大程度上是一种对称性疾病。尽管暗视视网膜敏感度早期下降,但我们的数据表明,基因治疗等新疗法在挽救光感受器方面有很大的空间。
