ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the ocular characteristics and treatment prognosis of ocular immune reconstruction inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) in patients with cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) complicated with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).Methods:
A serial case-observational study was conducted.Seventeen eyes from 15 male 21-to 43-year-old AIDS patients combined with CMVR, who were diagnosed with IRIS at Beijing You'an Hospital, Capital Medical University from February 2016 to December 2018 were included.The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of patients was recorded, and the intraocular pressure and anterior segment was measured with a non-contact tonometer and a slit-lamp microscope, respectively.The ocular fundus was observed by fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT). Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to measure the cytomegalovirus deoxyribonucleic acid (CMV-DNA) content in the aqueous humor during the occurrence of IRIS.The flow cytometry was employed to determine the peripheral blood CD4 + T lymphocyte count before highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and during the occurrence of IRIS.All patients were followed for 3 to 25 months, with an average of 15 months.The HAART time of patients was 17 to 104 days, with an average of (66.1±27.4) days.Patients with anterior segment inflammatory reactions were given the anti-inflammatory and mydriatic treatment.Patients with severe vitreous opacity were intravitreally injected with 4 mg of triamcinolone.Patients with macular edema were given 0.5 mg intravitreal injection of conbercept.The study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by an Ethics Committee of Beijing You'an Hospital, Capital Medical University (No.[2017]11). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to any examination.Results:
Anterior segment inflammation (Tyndall effect, KP, post-iris adhesion) was found in 9 eyes, vitreous opacities to varying degrees in 11 eyes, and macular edema in 2 eyes.The CMV-DNA content was negative (<500 copies/ml) in 15 eyes.The CD4 + T lymphocyte count in peripheral blood during IRIS was 67 (51, 99) cells/μl, which was significantly higher than 17(6, 20) cells/μl before HAART treatment ( Z=-4.48, P<0.01). Two of the 15 AIDS patients had tuberculosis.The BCVA of the patients was improved from 0.30 (0.10, 0.55) before treatment to 0.50 (0.35, 0.60) after treatment, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-2.34, P=0.019).Conclusions:
The anterior and posterior segment may be involved in IRIS patients with AIDS and CMVR, and the corresponding ocular treatment is effective.
