Park C, Lee JH, Park YG. Changes in Neurodegeneration and Visual Prognosis in Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion after Resolution of Macular Edema. J Clin Med 2024; 13:812. [PMID: 38337506 PMCID: PMC10856372 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13030812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 12/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to examine the thicknesses of the ganglion cell layer (GCL) and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) in eyes with resolved macular edema (ME) in branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and determine their relationship with visual acuity (VA). This retrospective observational case-control study included 57 eyes of BRVO patients with resolved ME after treatment. The macular GCL thickness, peripapillary RNFL thickness, and central macular thickness (CMT) measured on swept-source optical coherence tomography scans with the contralateral eyes used as controls were evaluated. The mean CMT was 270.48 ± 32.7 μm; the mean RNFL thickness was 105.46 ± 25.94 μm in BRVO eyes. Although the average RNFL thickness was decreased in BRVO eyes compared to unaffected eyes, there was no significant difference between the groups. However, the temporal and nasal RNFL thicknesses were significantly different between the groups. The mean affected quadrant had a significantly thinner GCL compared to the corresponding opposite unaffected quadrant (p = 0.02). Final VA was significantly correlated with nasal and middle GCL thicknesses in the affected area (r = -0.512, p = 0.003 and r = -0.537, p = 0.001, respectively); no correlation was found between the average RNFL thickness and mean CMT. The peripapillary RNFL and GCL thicknesses of the affected area were reduced in BRVO eyes compared to unaffected eyes. VA significantly correlated with nasal and middle GCL thicknesses in the affected area. Inner retinal damage occurring in patients with ME secondary to BRVO may be related to the visual prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study seeks to examine potential risk factors for the development of retinal artery occlusions (RAO). METHODS We used data obtained from Danish nationwide registries to evaluate potential risk factors for RAO present up to 5 years prior to the RAO diagnosis. The study included 5312 patients diagnosed with RAO registered in the Danish National Patient Register and 26,560 controls assessed from the general population matched on sex and age at index date. Adjusted conditional logistic regression was used to estimate the odds ratio of included risk factors for RAO diagnosis. We conducted supplementary analyses stratified on sex and age, and on RAO subtype. In addition, interaction analyses were performed between strata in the stratified analyses. RESULTS Risk factors associated with the development of RAO included diabetes, arterial hypertension, ischemic heart disease, peripheral artery disease, stroke, renal disease, cataract, and glaucoma, with ORs ranging from 1.33 to 4.94. Atrial fibrillation and sleep apnea yielded effect measures close to equivalence. The presence of a risk factor was generally associated with higher odds of RAO among the population ≤ 55 of age. Arterial hypertension was stronger associated with RAO in male patients than in female patients. The association with arterial hypertension was stronger for CRAO than for BRAO subtype. CONCLUSION The investigated risk factors suggest that atherosclerosis and conditions changing the intraocular pressure are involved in the pathophysiology of RAO.

Comparison of multiple tractography methods for reconstruction of the retinogeniculate visual pathway using diffusion MRI. Hum Brain Mapp 2021; 42:3887-3904. [PMID: 33978265 PMCID: PMC8288095 DOI: 10.1002/hbm.25472] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2021] [Revised: 04/24/2021] [Accepted: 04/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
The retinogeniculate visual pathway (RGVP) conveys visual information from the retina to the lateral geniculate nucleus. The RGVP has four subdivisions, including two decussating and two nondecussating pathways that cannot be identified on conventional structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Diffusion MRI tractography has the potential to trace these subdivisions and is increasingly used to study the RGVP. However, it is not yet known which fiber tracking strategy is most suitable for RGVP reconstruction. In this study, four tractography methods are compared, including constrained spherical deconvolution (CSD) based probabilistic (iFOD1) and deterministic (SD-Stream) methods, and multi-fiber (UKF-2T) and single-fiber (UKF-1T) unscented Kalman filter (UKF) methods. Experiments use diffusion MRI data from 57 subjects in the Human Connectome Project. The RGVP is identified using regions of interest created by two clinical experts. Quantitative anatomical measurements and expert anatomical judgment are used to assess the advantages and limitations of the four tractography methods. Overall, we conclude that UKF-2T and iFOD1 produce the best RGVP reconstruction results. The iFOD1 method can better quantitatively estimate the percentage of decussating fibers, while the UKF-2T method produces reconstructed RGVPs that are judged to better correspond to the known anatomy and have the highest spatial overlap across subjects. Overall, we find that it is challenging for current tractography methods to both accurately track RGVP fibers that correspond to known anatomy and produce an approximately correct percentage of decussating fibers. We suggest that future algorithm development for RGVP tractography should take consideration of both of these two points.

Abstract
Background: To characterize the longitudinal changes of macular vessel density in young adults and its associated factors. Methods: The right eyes of 309 participants (75 high myopic, 194 mild-to-moderate myopic, and 40 healthy) were followed up for 21 months. OCTA images were acquired at two visits using follow-up scans. Macular vessel density was calculated globally and in the nine early treatment diabetic retinopathy study (ETDRS) subfields of the macula superficial layer. Results: The macular vessel density significantly decreased in young myopes after a 21-month follow up (p < 0.05), with variations among sectors. Compared with healthy eyes, HM group exhibited a faster reduction in global macular vessel density (p = 0.0307) as well as in sectors of inner-inferior (II), inner-temporal (IT), and outer-temporal (OT) (all p < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that longer baseline axial length (AL) was significantly associated with larger reduction of macular vessel density in the inner-inferior, inner-temporal and outer-temporal sectors (all p < 0.05). Conclusions: Compared with emmetropes, high myopes presented greater loss of macular vessel density over time in global and in the inner-inferior, inner-temporal and outer-temporal sectors. A longer baseline AL was associated with larger changes of macular vessel density in the inner-inferior, inner-temporal and outer-temporal sectors.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the clinical manifestations and prognosis of eyes with cilioretinal artery sparing central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 90 eyes diagnosed with complete CRAO, including 16 cases of cilioretinal artery sparing CRAO. Clinical features, visual outcome, papillomacular bundle involvement, and remnant visual field were analyzed according to cilioretinal artery sparing. Results Among eyes with complete CRAO, the proportion of cilioretinal artery sparing CRAO was 17.8% (16 / 90). Mean initial best-corrected visual acuities (BCVAs) (2.04 ± 0.69 vs. 2.34 ± 0.47, p = 0.039) and final BCVAs (1.65 ± 0.87 vs. 2.22 ± 0.84, p = 0.001) were significantly better in eyes of the cilioretinal artery sparing group than the non-sparing group. The proportion with poor visual outcome (final BCVA <20 / 200) was 81.3% in the cilioretinal artery sparing group and 97.3% in the non-sparing group (p = 0.01). In sub-group analysis within cilioretinal artery sparing CRAO eyes, ischemic involvement of the papillomacular bundle at disease onset was significantly more frequent in the poor vision group (BCVA <20 / 200, 12 / 13 [92.3%]) than in the good vision group (BCVA ≥20 / 200, 1 / 3 [33.3%], p = 0.016) and it was associated with preserved central visual field. Conclusions Although cilioretinal artery sparing is common in CRAO and has a better prognosis than complete CRAO, the visual outcome is generally poor and only a small proportion of eyes has preserved small central visual field. Ischemic injury of the papillomacular bundle at the acute stage of CRAO correlates with poor visual outcome and could be a prognostic sign.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS The papillomacular bundle (PMB) area is an important anatomical site associated with central vision. As preventive medicine and health screening examinations are now becoming commonplace, the incidental detection of papillomacular bundle defect (PMBD) on fundus photography has been increasing. However, clinical significance of incidental PMBD has not been well documented to date. Thus, through long-term and longitudinal observation, we aimed to investigate the risk factors for the development and progression of PMBD and its predictive role associated with systemic diseases and glaucoma. METHODS This longitudinal study included subjects who had undergone standardized health screening. We retrospectively reviewed patients for whom PMBD had been detected in fundus photography and followed up for more than 5 years. For a comparative analysis, non-PMBD groups of age- and gender-matched healthy controls were selected. RESULTS A total of about 67,000 fundus photographs were analyzed for 8.0 years, and 587 PMBD eyes were found. Among them, 234 eyes of 234 patients who had had fundus photographs taken for more than 5 years were finally included. A total of 216 eyes (92.3%) did not progress during the 8.1 ± 2.7 years, whereas 18 eyes (7.7%) showed progression at 7.6 ± 2.9 years after initial detection. A multivariate logistic regression analysis using 224 non-PMBD healthy controls revealed low body mass index (BMI < 20 kg/m2), systemic hypertension, and sclerotic changes of retinal artery as the significant risk factors for the development of PMBD. Regarding PMBD progression, low BMI, concomitant retinal nerve fiber layer defect (RNFLD) at non-PMB sites, optic disc hemorrhage, and higher vertical cup/disc ratio were individual significant risk factors. CONCLUSION PMBD is associated with ischemic effects. Although the majority of PMBD do not progress, some of cases are associated with glaucomatous damage in a long-term way. PMBD might be a personalized indicator representing ischemia-associated diseases and a predictive factor for diagnosis and preventive management of glaucoma.

Abstract
: Abstract: A loss or lack of blood supply to the eye can result in acute loss of vision. The site of ischemia may be at the level of the retinal arterioles, the central retinal artery, or further back at the ophthalmic and internal carotid artery. Recognizing the symptoms and signs are important to help prevent permanent ischemic and irreversible blindness. The objective of this review article is to provide the general ophthalmologists with information on how to recognize the symptoms and to best manage these patients. The management is to investigate for the cause of the transient monocular visual loss and to apply secondary prevention to address atherosclerotic risk factors to prevent further ischemic events like a stroke.

Abstract
Iatrogenic ophthalmic artery occlusion (IOAO) is a rare but devastating ophthalmic disease that may cause sudden and permanent visual loss. Understanding the possible etiologic modalities and pathogenic mechanisms of IOAO may prevent its occurrence. There are numerous medical etiologies of IOAO, including cosmetic facial filler injection, intravascular procedures, intravitreal gas or drug injection, retrobulbar anesthesia, intraarterial chemotherapy in retinoblastoma. Non-ocular surgeries and vascular events in arteries that are not directly associated with the ophthalmic artery, can also cause IOAO. Since IOAO has a limited number of treatment modalities, which lead to poor final visual prognosis, it is imperative to acknowledge the information regarding medical procedures that are etiologically associated with IOAO. We accumulated all searchable and available IOAO case reports (our cases and previous reported cases from the literature), classified them according to their mechanisms of pathogenesis, and summarized treatment options and responses of each of the causes. Various sporadic cases of IOAO can be categorized into three mechanisms as follows: intravascular event, orbital compartment syndrome, and increased intraocular pressure. Embolic IOAO, which is considered the primary cause of the condition, was classified into three subgroups according to the pathway of embolic movement (retrograde pathway, anterograde pathway, pathway through collateral channels). Despite the practical limitations of treating spontaneous (non-iatrogenic) retinal artery occlusion, this article will contribute in predicting and improving the prognosis of IOAO by recognizing the treatable factors. Furthermore, it is expected to provide clues to future research associated with the treatment of retinal artery occlusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of MRI-tractography to explore the human neuroretina is yet to be reported. Track-weighted imaging (TWI) was recently introduced as a qualitative tractography-based method with high anatomical contrast. PURPOSE To explore the human retina in healthy volunteers and patients with anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) using TWI reconstructions. STUDY TYPE Prospective. POPULATION Twenty AION patients compared with 20 healthy volunteers. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3.0T MRI diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with b-value of 1000 s/mm2 and 60 diffusion-weighting noncollinear directions. ASSESSMENT We performed constrained spherical deconvolution from the diffusion-weighted signal and volumetric tractography method, whereby 10 million streamlines are initiated from seed points randomly distributed throughout the orbital area. We then reconstructed TWI maps with isotropic voxel size of 300 μm. STATISTICAL TESTS We tested the effect of the number of diffusion-weighting directions, ocular laterality, and ocular dominance on healthy retinal fascicles distribution. We then performed factorial analysis of variance to test the effects of the presence/absence of the fascicles on the visual field defect in patients. RESULTS In healthy volunteers, we found more temporal fascicle in right eyes (P = 0.001), more superior fascicles in dominant eyes (P = 0.014), and fewer fascicles with tractography maps based on 30 directions than those based on 45 directions (P = 9 × 10-8 ) and 60 directions (P = 6 × 10-7 ). Eight out of 20 AION patients presented with complete absence of neuroretinal fascicle, side of the disease, which was correlated with visual field mean deviation at the 6-month visit [F(1,17) = 6.97, P = 0.016]. Seven patients presented with a temporal fascicle in the injured eye; this fascicle presence was linked to visual field mean deviation at the 6-month visit [F(1,17) = 8.43, P = 0.009]. DATA CONCLUSION In AION patients, the presence of the temporal neuroretinal fascicle in the affected eye provides an objective outcome radiological sign correlated with visual performance.

Abstract
Intraocular foreign body (IOFB) in cases of penetrating eye injury accounts for an important indication of vitreoretinal intervention following ocular trauma. Vascular occlusion as a complication of IOFB is rare. Here we present a case of a 34-year-old male with post-traumatic cataract and an intraocular metallic foreign body (IOFB) lodged in the superficial layers of the retina inferotemporal to the disc, causing an inferotemporal branch retinal artery occlusion. The case was managed by lensectomy with pars plana vitrectomy and IOFB removal followed by a second procedure of secondary IOL implantation. Final best-corrected visual acuity improved to 6/24. This case highlights an unusual sequelae following penetrating ocular trauma.
