先天性晶状体脱位的治疗及预后研究进展

Recent advances in research onthe treatment and prognosis of congenital ectopia lentis

:424-430
 
先天性晶状体脱位(congenital ectopia lentis, CEL)是一种罕见的遗传相关性疾病,其主要临床特征是晶状体悬韧带先天性发育异常,导致晶状体偏离正常解剖位置。随着病情的进展,CEL可引起高度屈光不正甚至弱视外,还可能导致继发性青光眼和视网膜脱离等严重的并发症。目前,手术仍是改善CEL患儿视觉质量及防治并发症的主要手段。常用的手术方式包括晶状体摘除术、前房型人工晶状体(intraocular lens, IOL)植入术、囊袋支撑装置联合IOL植入术及经巩膜IOL固定术等,这些手术方式各具特点,但目前最佳手术方式仍未有定论。既往大量文献表明,手术能够显著改善CEL患儿视力,但随着眼球的生长发育,CEL患儿术后屈光状态常出现近视漂移。此外,术后并发症如缝线暴露,IOL瞳孔夹持、IOL脱位、视网膜脱离等仍有可能发生,需要长期的严密随访。这些因素都使得CEL的治疗具有挑战性。为此,文章就CEL的手术方式、视力预后、术后屈光变化及术后并发症进行综述,旨在为该疾病的临床诊断及治疗提供更为全面和深入的理解。

Congenital ectopia lentis (CEL) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the displacement of the lens from its normal anatomical position due to abnormalities in the lens zonular. As the progression of the disease, CEL can lead to high refractive error, even amblyopia, as well as other serious complications such as secondary glaucoma and retinal detachment. Currently, surgical intervention remains the primary method to improve the visual quality and prevent complications in children with CEL.Common surgical options include lens extraction, anterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, IOL implantation combined with capsular tension devices, and transcleral fixation of IOL. Each surgical approach has its own characteristics, but there is currently no consensus on the best surgical method. Previous literature has shown that surgery can significantly improve vision in children with CEL; however, due to the growth of the eye, postoperative refractive status often experiences myopic shift. Additionally, complications such as suture exposure, IOL pupil capture, IOL dislocation, and retinal detachment may still occur, necessitating long-term close follow-up. These factors make the treatment of CEL challenging. This article reviews the surgical approaches, visual prognosis, postoperative refractive changes, and postoperative complications associated with CEL, aiming to provide a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Research progress of transcorneal electrical stimulation in the treatment of retinal diseases

:708-714
 
近年来,眼部电流刺激(electrical stimulation,ES)在不同方向的研究中逐渐揭示了其在多种视网膜疾病中的潜在治疗价值。其中,经角膜电刺激(transcorneal electrical stimulation,TES)作为一种非侵入性的治疗方法,能对视网膜、视神经、眼底血管及其相关结构产生积极的影响。TES能够改善视力,在保护感光细胞和减缓疾病进展方面显示出积极效果,提高患者的生存质量,还能够在不损伤眼球的情况下调节大脑中的神经元活动,为视网膜疾病的治疗提供一种新的选择。该文对近年来TES在视网膜色素变性(retinitis pigmentosa,RP)、年龄相关性黄斑变性(age-related macular degeneration,AMD)、视网膜血管病、青光眼以及视神经病变等疾病中的应用研究进行了综述。研究发现,TES治疗是一种安全且无需手术的辅助治疗工具,具有广泛的应用前景。该文旨在为临床医师提供一个全面的TES研究概述,并深入探讨其在眼科学领域的潜在应用价值。然而,TES治疗的具体机制仍需进一步探讨,以便更好地应用于临床实践。同时,未来研究还应关注TES与其他治疗方法相结合的效果,以期为患者提供更多有效的治疗选择。
In recent years, electrical stimulation of the eye (ES) has gradually revealed its potential therapeutic value in a variety of retinal diseasesin different directions. Among them, transcorneal electrical stimulation (TES), as a non-invasive treatment, can have a positive effect on the retina, optic nerve, fundus vessels and related structures. TES can improve vision, show positive effects in protecting photoreceptor cells and slowing disease progression, improve the quality of life of patients, and can regulate neuronal activity in the brain without damaging the eyeball, providing a new option for the treatment of retinal diseases. The research on the application on TES on retinitis pigementosa (RP), age-related macular degeneration (AMD), retinal angiopathy, glaucoma and optic neuropathy are reviewed in this article. It is found in the study that TES therapy is a safe and surgery-free adjuvant therapy tool, and has a wide application prospect. The purpose of this article is to provide clinicians with a comprehensive overview of TES research,and to explore its potential application value in the field of ophthalmology. However, the specific mechanism of TES therapy still needs to be further explored in order to better apply in clinical practice. At the same time, future studies should also focus on the effect of combining TES with other treatment methods, in order to provide more effective treatment options for patients.

Research progress of gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy in the treatment of glaucoma

:478-488
 
房角镜辅助的内路360°小梁切开术(Gonioscopy-Assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy,GATT)是近年来国内外开展的新型微创青光眼手术,是一种改良的小梁切开术。GATT将微导管(iTrack)环穿Schlemm's管后,利用微导管张力全周切开小梁网及Schlemm's管内壁,重建生理性房水流出通道,避免小梁网阻力,实现房水从前房直接进入集液管,通过增加房水流出机制降低眼压。GATT适应证广泛,主要应用于开角型青光眼,包括原发型开角型青光眼和继发性开角型青光眼,同时可运用于闭角型青光眼。GATT微创、不依赖滤过泡、能明显减少降眼压药物的使用、中远期疗效稳定、安全性高、较少发生威胁视力的并发症,可作为开角型青光眼的首选手术方式。本文将对GATT在青光眼中的应用、手术步骤、作用机制、有效性、并发症及影响疗效的因素等进行综述,以期为其临床运用提供参考。
As a modifed trabeculotomy, Gonioscopy-Assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy (GAT) is a new type of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery developed at home and abroad in recent years. GAT inserts a microcatheter (iTrack) into the Schlemm's canal and advance the catheter through the canal circumferentially 360°, then circumferentially fracture the trabecular meshwork and inner wall of Schlemm’s canal. Tis method can reduce intraocular pressure by increasing the outfow of aqueous humor. Te physiological outfow pathway of aqueous humor is reconstructed, which can avoid the resistance of trabecular meshwork and realizing the direct entry of the aqueous humor directly into the collector channel from the anterior chamber. With a wide range of indications, GAT is mainly used in open-angle glaucoma, including primary open-angle glaucoma and secondary open-angle glaucoma, and is also used in primary closed- angle glaucoma. Additionally, GATT can be the preferred surgical modality for open-angle glaucoma, as it has the following advantages: minimally invasive, independent of fltration bleb, can signifcantly reduce the use of medications, stable medium- and long-term efcacy, high safety, and has fewer sight-threatening complications. In order to provide a reference for clinical application, this article reviews the indications, mechanism of action, surgical procedures, efectiveness, complication and factors afecting therapeutic efect.

NMOSD合并HIV感染/AIDS的诊疗:病例报告并文献复习

Diagnosis and treatment of NMOSD associated with HIV infection/AIDS: case report and literature review

:214-224
 
报告一例视神经脊髓炎谱系疾病(neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders,NMOSD)合并人体免疫缺陷病毒(human immunodeficiency virus,HIV)感染/获得性免疫缺陷综合征(acquired immune deficiency syndrome,AIDS),并通过文献复习,总结其发病机制、临床特征、治疗及预后。检索文献包括7篇英文文献(8个病例),1篇中文文献,共报道9例NMOSD合并HIV感染/AIDS病例,结合本文报道的1例共10例,其中5例为女性,5例为男性,3例HIV感染/AIDS为新发,其他病例的HIV感染/AIDS发病均早于NMOSD。临床表现上,7例均为视神经炎和脊髓炎同时或相继发生,2例表现为单相病程或复发性脊髓炎,1例仅表现为双眼相继发生的视神经炎,10例患者头或脊髓MRI均有典型的视神经或脊髓异常信号,伴或不伴强化。2例患者未进行水通道蛋白4(aquaporin protein-4,AQP4)抗体IgG检测,其余8例中5例AQP4抗体阳性、3例阴性。针对AIDS的治疗,10例患者中,8例接受了高效抗逆转录病毒治疗(highly active antiretroviral therapy,HAART)。针对NMOSD的治疗,10例患者中,急性期有8例患者接受糖皮质激素冲击治疗、3例患者接受血浆置换、2例接受丙种球蛋白治疗,序贯治疗期有6例患者接受免疫抑制剂治疗,其中1例因高胆红素血症停药。发生视神经炎的7例中,2例患者经治疗仍失明、5例视力部分恢复,发生脊髓炎的8例中,5例患者遗留截瘫或轻瘫、3例肌力部分恢复。1例因严重并发症去世。NMOSD合并HIV感染/AIDS临床较罕见,预后差,往往遗留严重的视力障碍及瘫痪等,临床治疗较为棘手,糖皮质激素和免疫抑制剂并非使用禁忌证,但制定治疗决策前需要充分考虑风险与获益的平衡。
A case of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders(NMOSD) complicated with human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) infection/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome(AIDS) was reported, and the pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis were summarized through the literature review. The retrieved literatures included seven English literatures (eight cases) and one Chinese literature, in which a total of nine cases of NMOSD co-infected with HIV infection/AIDS were reported. Combined with the case reported in this paper, the total number of cases was ten, among which five cases were female and five cases were male, three cases of HIV infection/AIDS were newly developed, and the other cases had earlier onset of HIV infection/AIDS than NMOSD. In terms of clinical manifestations, seven cases all had simultaneous or sequential optic nerve and myelitis, two patients presented with a uniphasic course or recurrent myelitis, and one case presented only with bilateral optic neuritis occurring sequentially in both eyes. All ten patients had typical abnormal signals of the optic nerve or spinal cord with or without enhancement on cranial or spinal MRI. Two patients did not undergo AQP4 antibody IgG testing , and of the remaining seven cases, five were positive for AQP4 antibodies and three were negative. For AIDS treatment, eight of the ten patients received highly active antiretroviral therapy(HAART). For NMOSD treatment, among the ten patients, eight patients received intravenous methylprednisolone,three patients received plasmapheresis, and two patients received intravenous immunoglobulin in the acute phase. Six patients received immunosuppressive therapy during the sequential treatment period, and one of them was discontinued due to hyperbilirubinemia. Of the seven cases with optic neuritis, two patients remained blind after treatment and five had partial recovery of vision. Of the eight cases with myelitis, five patients were left with paraplegia or mild paralysis, and three had partial recovery of muscle strength. One case died due to serious complications.NMOSD combined with HIV infection/AIDS is rare in clinic and has a poor prognosis. Patients are often left with severe visual impairment and paralysis. Clinical treatment is quite difficult, hormones and immunosuppressive agents are not considered as contraindications. Treatment decisions need to be made with fully considered about the balance of risks and benefits.

Strabismusis a prevalent ophthalmic disorder predominantly affects children. For a long time, its diagnosis and treatment have heavily relied on traditional methods, which are highly dependent on clinical expertise. This reliance often leads to inefficiency, poor patient compliance, and delayed treatment. These issues can severely impair visual function and hinder psychosocial development. Recently, there have been significant advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR), both of which are cutting-edge digital technologies. These innovations have brought about a revolution in the screening, diagnosis, and treatment of ophthalmic diseases, driving the intelligent transformation of strabismus management. AI demonstrates remarkable capabilities in the automated detection of strabismus types and deviation angles. It achieves this through robust image recognition and analysis techniques, enabling a comprehensive evaluation of the disease. By analyzing vast amounts of data, AI can predict surgical parameters, assists in personalized surgical planning, and objectively assesses postoperative outcomes. This significantly enhances diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic efficiency. At the same time, VR technology enables holistic ocular alignment measurements and dynamic analysis via eye-tracking and simulated dynamic environments. During surgical procedures, VR offers surgeons an enhanced visualization of ocular structures and improves operational accuracy through simulated trials. As a result, it helps reduce surgical risks. After surgery, immersive VR-based visual training programs can optimize rehabilitation outcomes. This review systematically examines innovative applications of AI and VR in strabismus care, highlighting their unique technical advantages and clinical value. The synergistic integration of AI and VR has catalyzed an intelligent paradigm shift in strabismus management. This shift promises to inject new momentum into ophthalmic medicine and propel the field towards unprecedented advancements.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of microscopic radiofrequency ablation in treating of distichiasis and aberrant lashes. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis on 18 patients with trichiasis (distichiasis and aberrant lashes) who underwent microscopic radiofrequency ablation treatment. All patients were followed up for a minimum of 3 months after the operation. The outcome measures included trichiasis clearance rate, the number of treatment sessions  needed to achieve success, complications, and patient satisfaction. Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between the baseline characteristics of patients and the number of treatment sessions. Results: The study included 18 patients with a total of 30 eyes. Immediately after the operation,  the trichiasis clearance rate achieved through microscopic radiofrequency ablation was 100%. Among the eyes, 5 eyes (16.7%) were  successful treatment after just one session, 11 eyes (36.7%) required 2 treatment sessions, 13 eyes (43.3%) needed 3 treatment sessions, and 1 eye (3.3%) required more than 3 treatment sessions to achieve success. The major complications included dry eye in 13 cases (43.3%) and eyelid margin inflammation in 1 case (3.3%). Notably, no severe complications such as eyelid deformity or scarring were observed. According to the patient satisfaction survey, 16 cases (88.9%) reported being very satisfied, and 2 cases (11.1%) were basically satisfied, resulting in an overall satisfaction rate of 100%. The correlation analysis indicated that the number of trichiatic eyelashes was significantly positively correlated with the number of treatment sessions (rs=0.672, P=0.002). Conclusions: Microscopic radiofrequency ablation for distichiasis and aberrant lashes treatment boasts serveral advantages, including precise localization, effective destruction of hair follicle, short treatment duration, minimal trauma, rapid recovery, and high safety. With a high level of  patient satisfaction, it serves as an effective treatment method for distichiasis and aberrant lashes.

A case of recurrent neuromyelitis optica with an 11-year follow-up: current status and future prospects in the treatment of NMO

:665-674
 
视神经脊髓炎谱系疾病(neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, NMOSD)是一种罕见的中枢神经系统自身免疫性疾病,主要表现为视神经炎和纵向广泛性横贯性脊髓炎,复发率高,反复发作可导致不可逆的神经功能损害。文章报告了一例44岁女性的NMOSD患者,以反复发作的视神经炎为特征,经过长达11年的随访,共历经4次临床发作。患者首次发作时,因治疗过程中糖皮质(激素)减量过快和自行停药导致病情恶化,后续发作中采用了规范的急性期治疗和缓解期预防复发方案,包括大剂量激素冲击、免疫抑制剂(硫唑嘌呤、吗替麦考酚酯)和静脉注射免疫球蛋白(intravenous immunoglobulin, IVIG)等,显著延长了缓解期。最近一次复发中,患者首次使用了新型生物制剂伊奈丽珠单抗(CD19单克隆抗体)预防复发治疗。文章通过具体病例分析和文献综述,反映NMOSD急性期和缓解期预防复发治疗策略的时代变迁,并探索新型生物制剂使用过程中需要注意的问题。
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. It is predominantly characterized by optic neuritis and longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis. Given its high relapse rate, repeated attacks of NMOSD can result in irreversible nerve damage. The article details the case of a 44-year-old female patient with NMOSD, whose primary manifestion was recurrent optic neuritis.The patient was followed up over an 11-year span, during which she experienced a total of four clinical relapses. During the initial attack, the patient's condition deteriorated because of the rapid tapering of steroid therapy and her self-initiated discontinuation of medication. In subsequent attacks, standardized treatments for the acute phase and strategies for preventing relapses were implemented. These included high-dose steroid pulses, immunosuppressants (azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil), and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). These interventions significantly prolonged the remission period. During the most recent relapse, the patient received treatment with the novel biologic agent inebilizumab, which is  a CD19 monoclonal antibody. Through a comprehensive case analysis and a review of relevant literature , this report sheds light on the evolving treatment strategies for managing the acute phase and preventing relapses during remission in NMOSD. It also highlights key considerations in the practical application of the new biologic therapies.

新型纳米材料介导治疗念珠菌角膜炎研究进展

Research progress on novel nanomaterials mediated treatment of candidal keratitis

:348-354
 

真菌性角膜炎是我国常见的致盲性眼病,其中排前3位的致病病原菌分别为曲霉菌、镰刀菌以及念珠菌。念珠菌作为一种条件致病真菌,在宿主免疫功能低下或眼表微环境失衡时易引发机会性感染,其发病率因免疫抑制药物的滥用以及隐形眼镜佩戴的增加等因素逐年上升。在机会感染后,由于念珠菌本身以及生物膜形成的特殊作用,常导致其对现用系统性抗真菌药物,如伏立康唑、两性霉素B、伊曲康唑及氟康唑等耐药性增加。近年来,关于纳米材料介导的药物传递系统作用于治疗念珠菌角膜炎的研究日益增多,新型纳米材料通过作为抗真菌药物的载体,增加药物溶解度,延长眼表停留时间,加强生物膜、角膜穿透性,提高了抗真菌药物对念珠菌的抗菌作用,为解决念珠菌感染耐药性难题提供了新思路。文章综述了纳米聚合物、纳米颗粒、纳米凝胶、脂质体载体、纳米立方体、纳米微针和纳米胶束等新型纳米材料作为治疗念珠菌角膜炎的新型给药载体的研究现状与进展,突破传统疗法的局限,为改善目前临床存在抗真菌治疗药物有限的问题提供新的可行思路。

Fungal keratitis is a prevalent blinding ocular disease in China, with Aspergillus, Fusarium, and Candida ranking as the top three pathogenic fungi. As an opportunistic pathogenic fungus, Candida readily causes opportunistic infections when host immunity is compromised or the ocular surface microenvironment is imbalanced. The incidence of Candida keratitis has been rising annually due to factors such as the misuse of immunosuppressive drugs and increased contact lens wear. Following infection, Candida itself and the formation of biofilms contribute to enhanced resistance against currently used systemic antifungal agents, including voriconazole, amphotericin B, itraconazole, and fluconazole, posing significant challenges to clinical treatment.Recently, research on nanomaterials-mediated drug delivery systems for treating Candida keratitis has burgeoned. Novel nanomaterials, serving as carriers for antifungal drugs, enhance therapeutic efficacy by improving drug solubility, prolonging ocular surface retention time, penetrating biofilms, and enhancing corneal permeability. These advancements offer new strategies to address drug resistance in Candida infections. This article reviews the research status and progress of emerging nanomaterialssuch as nanopolymers, nanoparticles, nanogels, liposomal carriers, nanocubes, nanoneedles, and nanomicellesas innovative drug delivery vectors for Candida keratitis. By overcoming the limitations of conventional therapies, these nanomaterials provide feasible solutions to the clinical challenges of limited antifungal options and drug resistance. The integration of nanotechnology holds promise for revolutionizing the treatment of Candida keratitis and advancing precision medicine for ocular surface fungal infections.
