Aqueous humor monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 predicted long-term visual outcome of proliferative diabetic retinopathy undergone intravitreal injection of bevacizumab and vitrectomy.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

We aim to investigate the risk factors associated with the prognosis of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) after a sequential treatment of intravitreal injection of bevacizumab (IVB) and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV).

Methods

In this cohort study, 63 eyes from 55 patients (21 females) diagnosed with PDR, who needed PPV for non-clearing vitreous hemorrhage or fibrovascular membrane proliferation were enrolled. All the eyes underwent IVB followed by PPV. Anterior chamber tap was performed at the beginning of both procedures to evaluate the concentration of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1.

Results

Forty-seven patients (54 eyes) were followed over six months, averaging 12±5 (6-19) months. The concentration of VEGF significantly decreased after IVB (P<0.001), while other cytokines did not change significantly. The aqueous humor level of IL-8 after IVB (R = 0.378, P = 0.033), MCP-1 before (R = 0.368, P = 0.021) and after (R = 0.368, P = 0.038) IVB, and combined phacoemulsification (R = 0.293, P = 0.032) was correlated with the logMAR visual acuity at the last follow-up. Multivariate analysis showed that MCP-1 was the predictor for a worse visual outcome (B = 0.108, 95% CI 0.013-0.202; P = 0.027).

Conclusions

MCP-1 was a predictor for the unfavorable visual outcome of PDR after IVB pretreatment and PPV.

Project description:BackgroundDiabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of visual loss in the working population. Pars plana vitrectomy has become the mainstream treatment option for severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) associated with significant vitreous haemorrhage and/or tractional retinal detachment. Despite the advances in surgical equipment, diabetic vitrectomy remains a challenging operation, requiring advanced microsurgical skills, especially in the presence of tractional retinal detachment. Preoperative intravitreal bevacizumab has been widely employed as an adjuvant to ease surgical difficulty and improve postoperative prognosis.Aims: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of preoperative intravitreal bevacizumab in reducing intraoperative complications and improving postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing vitrectomy for the complications of PDR.MethodsA literature search was conducted using the PubMed, Cochrane, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases to identify all related studies published before 31/10/2020. Prespecified outcome measures were operation time, intraoperative iatrogenic retinal breaks, best-corrected visual acuity in the last follow-up visit, the presence of any postoperative vitreous haemorrhage and the need to re-operate. Evidence synthesis was performed using Fixed or Random Effects models, depending on the heterogeneity of the included studies. Heterogeneity was assessed using Q-statistic and I2. Additional meta-regression models, subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses were performed as appropriate.ResultsThirteen randomized control trials, with a total of 688 eyes were included in this review. Comparison of the intraoperative data showed that bevacizumab reduced operation time (p < 0.001), minimized iatrogenic retinal breaks (p < 0.001), provided better long-term visual acuity outcomes (p = 0.005), and prevented vitreous haemorrhage (p < 0.001) and the need for reoperation (p = 0.001 < 0.05). Findings were strongly corroborated by additional sensitivity and subgroup analyses.ConclusionPreoperative administration of bevacizumab is effective in reducing intraoperative complications and improving the postoperative prognosis of diabetic vitrectomy.PROSPERO registration number: CRD42021219280.

Project description:IntroductionTo compare the efficacy and safety of intravitreal injections of ranibizumab (IVR) before and at the end of vitrectomy in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) patients.MethodsA prospective comparative study was performed on 60 eyes of 52 PDR patients who received ranibizumab injection (0.5 mg/0.05 ml) 3-5 days before vitrectomy (preoperative group) and 55 eyes of 50 PDR patients who received ranibizumab injection (0.5 mg/0.05 ml) at the end of vitrectomy (intraoperative group). Intra- and postoperative indices were collected for further comparison.ResultsPostoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in preoperative group was better than in intraoperative group at 1 week after surgery (P < 0.05) but comparable at 1- and 3-month follow-up (P = 0.20 and P = 0.37, respectively). Central retinal thickness (CRT) in preoperative group was lower than in intraoperative group at 1 week postoperatively (P < 0.05), but comparable at 1- and 3-month follow-up (P = 0.39 and P = 0.77, respectively). The average surgery time was significantly shorter in preoperative group than in intraoperative group (61.50 ± 11.44 min vs. 74.49 ± 12.01 min, P < 0.01). The incidence of intraoperative bleeding was significant lower in preoperative group than in intraoperative group (21.7% vs. 40.0%, P < 0.05). Moreover, the incidence of intraocular electrocoagulation use, iatrogenic retinal breaks, relaxing retinotomy and silicone oil tamponade were all significantly lower in preoperative group than that in intraoperative group (P < 0.05, respectively). The incidences of postoperative vitreous hemorrhage (VH), neovascular glaucoma (NVG), recurrent retinal detachment, postoperative fibrovascular proliferation progression and reoperation showed no statistical differences between the two groups (P > 0.05, respectively). Both groups had no ocular or system adverse events during observation period.ConclusionIn vitrectomy for PDR, preoperative IVR can significantly reduce surgery time and lower the incidence of intraoperative bleeding, intraocular electrocoagulation use, iatrogenic retinal breaks, relaxing retinotomy and silicone oil tamponade during surgery and gain short-term better postoperative BCVA and thinner CRT.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov (identifier, NCT05408416).
