Relationship between distribution and severity of non-perfusion and cytokine levels and macular thickness in branch retinal vein occlusion (bibtex)
by Ryu, G, Noh, D, van Hemert, J, Sadda, SR and Sagong, M
Abstract:
We aimed to investigate the relationship between non-perfusion on ultra-widefield angiography (UWF FA) and aqueous cytokine levels and central macular thickness (CMT) in eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). Thirty-five eyes with treatment-naïve BRVO were included. Non-perfusion area (NPA) for partial and complete ischemia was manually segmented and the ischemic index (ISI) for each was calculated using stereographically projected UWF FA for four different retinal zones. Partial and complete ischemia had different regional predominance. Partial ischemia was predominant in the posterior regions, while complete ischemia was predominant in the periphery. And partial ischemic area, located posterior to far periphery, showed significant correlation with central macular thickness and concentrations of angiogenic and inflammatory cytokines, while complete ischemic area showed no correlation with any of the parameters. Taken together, partial but not complete ischemia, particularly in the more posterior retina, was associated with higher cytokine levels and more severe macular edema in eyes with BRVO. These findings would help us to better understand the different clinical significance of ischemia in BRVO depending on the severity and regional distribution.
