ABSTRACT
In recent years, with the development of ophthalmic therapeutic drugs, the vitreous body, as a channel for the treatment of ophthalmic diseases, especially fundus diseases, has opened up a new therapeutic approach for various choroidal neovascular diseases, macular edema, uveitis and other diseases associated with fundus diseases, which is represented by wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD). The drugs administered through the vitreous body mainly include ocular anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections, microplasmin and hormones. For this kind of ophthalmic products, there are no clear technical guidelines and norms for non-clinical research at home and abroad. This article combines review practices and cases of marketed products to sort out the research progress and considerations on non-clinical studies of ophthalmic drugs dosing through the ocular vitreous body, in order to provide references for the research and evaluation of such drugs.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of cyclocryosurgery,intravitreal injection of conbercept combined with Ahmed glaucoma drainage valve implantation,intravitreal injection of conbercept combined with compound trabeculectomy in the treatment of neovascular glaucoma(NVG). METHODS:A total of 39 NVG patients(40 eyes)selected from Sichuan People's Hospital during Jun. 2014-Aug. 2016 were divided into group A(16 cases,16 eyes),B(13 cases,14 eyes),C (10 cases,10 eyes)according to different treatment methods. Group A received cyclocryosurgery;group B received Ahmed glaucoma drainage valve implantation after given intravitreal injection of Conbercept ophthalmic injection(0.05 mL,for consecutive 7 d);group C received compound trabeculectomy after given intravitreal injection of Conbercept ophthalmic injection (0.05 mL,for consecutive 7 d). The intraocular pressures of 3 groups were observed before and after treatment,and the rate of intraocular pressure control,visual changes and the incidence of complications were observed after treatment. The occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in intraocular pressure among 3 groups(P>0.05). Seven days,one month,three months and six months after treatment,intraocular pressures of 3 groups were decreased significantly compared to before treatment;intraocular pressure of group B was significantly lower than those of group A and C;group C was significantly lower than group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in intraocular pressure among 3 groups three and six months after treatment(P>0.05). The rates of intraocular pressure control in 3 groups were 62.5%,85.7% and 70.0% six months after treatment. Vision of 16 eyes in group A kept stable;vision of 3 eyes in group B were improved,that of 1 eye was decreased and those of 10 eyes kept stable;vision of 1 eye in group C was improved, that of 1 eye was decreased,and those of 8 eyes kept stable;there was no statistical significance in rate of intraocular pressure or vision among 3 groups(P>0.05).The incidence of exudation of anterior chamber in group A was significantly higher than group B and C,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of other complications(P>0.05). Two patients of group A suffered from the increase of blood pressure during the operation,and recovered to normal after symptomatic treatment. No obvious ADR was found in other patients during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Three kinds of therapy plans can effectively reduce intraocular pressure of NVG patients,and do not influence vision with less adverse reactions. Intravitreal injection of conbercept combined with Ahmed glaucoma drainage valve implantation or compound trabeculectomy can effectively reduce intraocular pressure in short time and the fromer is better than the latter. Above 2 regimens cause low incidence of complications.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the value of MR imaging in diagnosing autologous lashes within rabbit vitreous body.Methods 5 lashes were placed into the right vitreous bodys in 24 experimental animals.All of the experimental animals underwent MRI examination with and without overlying moist swab and 2% lidocaine retrobulbar anesthesia after operations 2 hours later.Results The intravitreous lashes could be demonstrated on T_2WI in 6 animals and 17 animals without and with overlying moist swab and 2% lidocaine retrobulbar anesthesia,respectively.Conclusion The methods of artifacts-suprresing is useful for diagnosing intravitreous lases foreign body within rabbits at MR imaging examination.
