ABSTRACT: Objectives
The objective of this study is to evaluate the progression and new onset of macular retinoschisis (MRS) in the patients treated with intravitreal Conbercept injections for myopic choroidal neovascularization (mCNV).Methods
Post-hoc analysis of 160 mCNV patients included in SHINY study was performed to evaluate the impact of Conbercept injection on MRS in patients with mCNV undergoing intravitreal Conbercept injections. The patients were 3:1 randomized to the study group (three loading dose and thereafter pro re nata [PRN]) and the control group (3 months' sham injection, then one Conbercept injection at month 4 and thereafter PRN). MRS was assessed with optical coherence tomography by masked graders.Results
At baseline, 28 of 122 eyes in study group and 10 of 38 eyes in control group had MRS. At month 3, two patients showed MRS progression and one patient had new onset MRS in study group. No MRS progression nor new onset MRS was found in the control group. At final visit, the cumulative incidence of MRS was 1.3% (2/160). Both Spearman's correlation and multiple logistic regression demonstrated no association between the progression and new onset of MRS and intravitreal injection frequency (correlation coefficient?=?0.017, P?=?0.851 and odds ratio?=?0.996, P?=?0.982). In addition, baseline vitreoretinal adhesion was the most likely potential risk factor resulting in MRS progression (odds ratio?=?4.566, P?=?0.027). Furthermore, MRS progression was more likely to take place in outer retinal layers.Conclusions
The progression and new onset of MRS was not associated with the frequency of intravitreal Conbercept injections.
