概括
一个主动的抗血管内皮生长因子 (VEGF) 治疗新血管与年龄相关的黄斑变性 (nAMD) 的方案导致病变缩小和四年来更好的视力. 反应性策略导致病变扩张和更糟糕的结果.
科学领域:
- 眼科医生 眼科 眼科
- 视网膜疾病 视网膜疾病
- 医疗成像医学成像
背景情况:
- 神经血管与年龄相关的黄斑变性 (nAMD) 是导致视力丧失的主要原因.
- 抗血管内皮生长因子 (VEGF) 药物是对nAMD的标准治疗.
- 治疗策略各不相同,包括主动和反应性疗法.
研究的目的:
- 用抗VEGF药物治疗的nAMD眼睛4年内病变区域的变化进行比较.
- 在常规临床实践中评估主动与反应性治疗方案的疗效.
主要方法:
- 多中心,回顾性对比研究202个未经治疗的nAMD眼睛.
- 患者接受了至少4年的积极性 (n=105) 或反应性 (n=97) 抗VEGF治疗.
- 从串行光学连贯断层扫描 (OCT) 图像中划分的损伤边缘,以计算生长率.
主要成果:
- 积极组:平均损伤面积显著比基线减少 (在4年内从7.24毫米2减少到5.16毫米2,p<0.001).
- 反应组:平均损伤面积从基线显著扩大 (在4年内从6.33mm2扩大到9.24mm2,p<0.001).
- 治疗方案,基线面积和活跃病变比例影响了4年病变面积.
结论:
- 对nAMD的反动抗VEGF策略导致病变面积增加,并在4年后视觉结果恶化.
- 积极的治疗方案与较少的复发,病变缩和视力改善有关.
- 积极的治疗似乎更有效地管理nAMD病变的进展.

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment
481
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment
575
Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...

Glaucoma: Overview
629
Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure that damages the retina and optic nerve, leading to irreversible blindness if left untreated. The human eye has various components, including the cornea, iris, pupil, lens, and optic nerve. Aqueous humor is secreted by the epithelium of the ciliary body in the posterior chamber and flows through the trabecular meshwork and canal of Schlemm, maintaining normal intraocular pressure. The trabecular meshwork and the canal...
