Electroretinogram in Normal Adult SD Rat

:103-106
 

目的:探讨正常成年 SD 大鼠的明视视网膜电图(Electroretinogram,ERG)特征。

方法:选取正常 9~12 周 SD 大鼠 60 只,使用罗兰视觉电生理仪记录大鼠右眼的明视闪光 ERG。使用 SPSS 统计分析 a 波、b 波和明视负波反应(Photopic negative response,PhNR)的隐含期和振幅。比较雄性和雌性 SD 大鼠明视 ERG 特征。

结果:每只 SD 大鼠均能记录到稳定的 a 波、b 波和 PhNR,其中 a 波的隐含期和 PhNR 的隐含期及振幅均符合正态分布,而其余指标均不符合正态分布。PhNR 的隐含期为 124.6±8.5 ms,其变异系数最小(0.07)。PhNR 的振幅为(11.3±4.2)μV,变异系数为 0.37。雄性和雌性 SD 大鼠明视 ERG 的各反应波之间无显著差异。

结论:在正常成年 SD 大鼠,明视闪光 ERG 是一项客观评价大鼠明视状态下视网膜功能的手段,PhNR 可以作为一项稳定的评价内层视网膜功能的指标。

Purpose: To study the characteristics of photopic flash electroretinogram (ERG) in normal adult SD rats.

Methods: Sixty normal adult SD rats aged 9 to 12 weeks old were enrolled in this study. Photopic flash ERG was recorded from these 60 SD rats. The results were analyzed with SPSS.

Results: Stable a, b and PhNR waves could be recorded in each rat. The implicit time of a wave, implicit time and amplitude of PhNR fit normal distribution. The implicit time of PhNR was (124.6 ± 8.5) ms with the smallest coefficient of variation of 0.07. The amplitude of PhNR was (11.3 ± 4.2) μV and the coefficient of variation was 0.37. There was no difference between the results of female and male rats.

Conclusion: Photopic flash ERG is an objective method in evaluating the retinal function in rats and PhNR can be used as a sensitive index of inner retinal function. 

Treatment options for the wet form of age-related macular degeneration—a perspective

Treatment options for the wet form of age-related macular degeneration—a perspective

:266-271
 
Treatment of the wet form of age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD) has been revolutionized a decade ago with the introduction of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) blockers that reduce neovascularization and macular edema. Two approved drugs are marketed for the treatment of wet AMD—ranibizumab and aflibercept, but there is a third drug, bevacizumab, which is widely used offlabel; a cancer drug that also blocks VEGF but was never tested in pivotal trials and never approved for ophthalmic indications including wet AMD. Similarity of bevacizumab to ranibizumab led to off-label use and even to government-sponsored studies comparison the approved ranibizumab head-to-head to the offlabel cancer drug bevacizumab in wet AMD, like the Comparison of Age-related Macular Degeneration Treatments Trials (CATT) study, discussed in this perspective paper. Recent publication of 5-year follow-up from the initial 2-year CATT study provided the occasion to discuss the similarities and differences between these two drugs and the lessons learned from the last decade of anti-VEGF therapy for wet AMD. Clinical efficacy is comparable, with an advantage for ranibizumab. Likewise, safety finding favor ranibizumab over bevacizumab in some aspects. The latest addition of approved anti-VEGF drugs for wet AMD, aflibercept, may provide even more benefit to patients. In this perspective we discuss results of CATT and other longterm follow-up and comparative studies. While all demonstrate clinical benefit of anti-VEGF, all reveal that most patients’ loose visual acuity (VA) in real-life situations over 5–7 years. This loss is based on—what we believe—significant under-treatment of wet AMD patients, due to economic or practical limitations and overestimation of perceived risks as geographic atrophy. We compare own data that showed more intensive treatment (more than twice the CATT-follow-up injections) with ranibizumab or aflibercept can maintain a sustained gain in VA in wet AMD patients after 6 years. We encourage retina specialists to treat wet AMD patients more aggressively and frequently in order to provide the maximum benefit for their patients.

Primary retinal ganglion cells for neuron replacement therapy

Primary retinal ganglion cells for neuron replacement therapy

:272-274
 
Optic nerve damage as a result of trauma, ischemia, glaucoma or other forms of optic neuropathy disease, leads to disconnection between the eye and brain and death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), causing permanent loss of vision. Therapeutic options for treating optic neuropathy are limited and represent a significant unmet medical need. Development of a regenerative strategy for replacement of lost RGCs lies at the core of the future cell-based therapy for these conditions. Successful long-term restoration of visual function depends on the type of cells for transplantation. Primary RGCs of neonatal mice are now reported to have the potential for serving such a purpose.

早产儿和足月儿屈光不正的分布和临床特点

Refractive Error's Distribution and Clinical Characteristics of Preterm and Full-term Children

:93-95
 

目的:观察和分析儿童眼科门诊就诊的屈光不正 3~7 岁患儿,有早产史和足月产史的患儿的屈光不正的特点和差异。

方法:屈光不正 179 例(358 眼),分为 2 组:早产史者 51 人,足月产者 128 人。1%阿托品眼膏散瞳进行视网膜带状光剪影验光。

结果:足月儿的屈光不正患儿中,以远视多见,占 157/256 眼(61.3%),对比有早产儿屈光不正的远视发病 25/102(24.5%),差异有统计学意义(P < 0.05)。有早产儿屈光不正中,以散光发病为主,占 81/102 眼(79.4%),尤以高度散光、混合散光多见,相对与足月儿,其散光发病,高度散光发病和混合散光发病眼数的差异均有显著性(P < 0.05)。

结论:散光,尤其是高度散光、复杂的混合散光是有早产儿童视力低下的重要原因。临床上散光与弱视的形成关系密切相关,因此不能忽略早产儿童视力发育,最早可提前到 2 岁即可进行屈光筛查。

Purpose: To observe the abnormal refractive state and clinical characteristics in preterm and full-term children of the Department of Pediatric Ophthalmology.

Methods: The ocular refraction status of 358 eyes in 51 preterm and 128 full-term children were checked by retinoscopy in dilated pupil after being used atropine eye drops.

Results: There were 157 eyes with hyperopia accounting for 61.3% in preterm children, and 25 eyes with hyperopia accounting for 24.5% in full-term children. The main type of refractive errors in preterm children is astigmatism, especially in high astigmatism and mixed astigmatism. The morbidity of astigmatism, hyper astigmatism, and mixed astigmatism in preterm children is higher than that in full-term children.

Conclusion: Astigmatism, especially high astigmatism and complex mixed astigmatism, are important reasons for low vision in preterm children. Clinically, there is a close relationship between astigmatism and amblyopia. Therefore, the visual development of preterm children should not be ignored, and refractive screening could be brought forward to two years old.

Ophthalmic complications related to dengue fever: a case report

Ophthalmic complications related to dengue fever: a case report

:178-181
 
Two patients aged of 30 and 22 (female in cases 1, and male in case 2) both complained of unilateral blurring of vision and scotoma within a week of being diagnosed with dengue fever. No other abnormal findings were found in their anterior segment. Retinal examination revealed blurring of the optic disc margin and several white spots in the posterior in both cases. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) imagery revealed that the white spots were only located in the retinal outer layers. Macular cystic foveolitis were also found in case 1 and diff used macular edema in case 2. In case 1, visual and retinal recovery were seen to resolve spontaneously. In case 2, patient had complete visual recovery two months after onset of the disease after being treated with steroids but central scotomata has continued to persist.
