To report visual field loss using static perimetry (SP) and kinetic perimetry (KP) over 4 years in the Rate of Progression of USH2A-related Retinal Degeneration (RUSH2A) study.
Prospective, observational cohort study.
SUBJECTS, PARTICIPANTS, AND/OR CONTROLS: Participants had USH2A-related rod-cone degeneration, visual acuity ≥20/80, and KP III4e ≥10° at baseline in the study eye. Preserved cohorts with baseline visual fields sufficient to detect progression were identified.
Participants were examined annually through 4 years. Mixed-effects models were used to estimate the annual, standardized rate, and percentage rates of change.
SP measures included hill of vision (total: V, central 30°: V, and peripheral: V) and centrally weighted mean sensitivity (MScw). Percentages with 4-year progression exceeding the coefficient of repeatability (CoR) and with change meeting Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-recommended criteria were estimated. KP seeing area (dB-steradian (sr)/degree) for I4e, III4e, and V4e isopters was calculated.
The average decline with SP (95% CI) was 1.94 (1.62, 2.25) dB-sr/y for V, 0.54 (0.45, 0.62) dB-sr/y for V, 1.37 (1.11, 1.63) dB-sr/y for V and 0.56 (0.48, 0.64) dB/y for MS. Average percentage decline per year was 8.6% (7.2, 10.0) for V, 6.4% (5.3, 7.5) for V, 13.6% (10.4, 16.7) for V, and 5.6% (4.7, 6.4) for MS. The standardized rate of change was greatest at -1.35 for MS. Rates were higher in the preserved cohorts. Progression exceeding the CoR was 18% (11, 28) for V, 21% (13, 31) for V, 21% (13, 31) for V and 17% (10, 27) for MS. Progression exceeding an FDA-recommended threshold was 5% (2%, 12%) for all SP points and 45% (35%, 55%) for functional transition points. Average KP annual percentage decline was 13.1% (7.5, 18.5) for I4e, 12.1% (8.1,15.9) for III4e, and 9.2% (6.3,12.0) for V4e.
All quantitative perimetry measures declined over 4 years. Progression was greater than the CoR in a relatively low percentage of eyes (17%-21%); 45% exceeded the FDA-recommended threshold when only functional transition points were considered. Standardized rate of change was greatest for MS. These measures are useful characterizations of vision loss in USH2A-related retinal degeneration.
报告在USH2A相关视网膜变性进展速率(RUSH2A)研究中,4年期间使用静态视野计(SP)和动态视野计(KP)检测到的视野丧失情况。
前瞻性观察性队列研究。
受试者、参与者和/或对照:研究眼基线时,参与者患有USH2A相关的视杆 - 视锥细胞变性,视力≥20/80,且KP III4e≥10°。确定了具有足以检测进展的基线视野的保留队列。
参与者每年接受检查,为期4年。使用混合效应模型估计年度标准化速率和变化百分比。
SP测量包括视力峰值(总计:V、中央30°:V和周边:V)以及中央加权平均敏感度(MScw)。估计4年进展超过重复性系数(CoR)以及变化符合美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)推荐标准的百分比。计算I4e、III4e和V4e等视线的KP可见面积(分贝 - 立体弧度(sr)/度)。
SP测量的平均下降(95%CI)为:V总计每年1.94(1.62, 2.25)dB - sr,中央30°的V每年0.54(0.45, 0.62)dB - sr,周边的V每年1.37(1.11, 1.63)dB - sr,MScw每年为0.56(0.48, 0.64)dB。每年平均下降百分比为:V总计8.6%(7.2, 10.0),中央30°的V为6.4%(5.3, 7.5),周边的V为13.6%(10.4, 16.7),MScw为5.6%(4.7, 6.4)。MScw的标准化变化率最大,为 - 1.35。保留队列中的变化率更高。进展超过CoR的比例为:V总计18%(11, 28),中央30°的V为21%(13, 31),周边的V为21%(13, 31),MScw为17%(10, 27)。超过FDA推荐阈值的进展在所有SP点为5%(2%, 12%),在功能转换点为45%(35%, 55%)。KP每年平均下降百分比为:I4e为13.1%(7.5, 18.5),III4e为12.1%(8.1, 15.9),V4e为9.2%(6.3, 12.0)。
所有定量视野测量指标在4年期间均下降。进展超过CoR的眼睛比例相对较低(17% - 21%);仅考虑功能转换点时,45%超过了FDA推荐的阈值。MScw的标准化变化率最大。这些测量指标有助于描述USH2A相关视网膜变性中的视力丧失情况。
