Abstract
Background
Few predictors of visual outcome after myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) auto-antibody disease optic neuritis (ON) have been reliably elucidated. We evaluate whether between-study differences in ON neuroimaging regional enhancement features may underlie heterogeneity in reported visual prognosis.
Methods
PROSPERO (CRD42024580123). We systematically review within-study analyses correlating neuroimaging ON findings with visual outcome. Between studies, a meta-regression was conducted using ON segmental and regional inflammation (intraorbital, pre-chiasmal, intra- or post-chiasmal, and longitudinal extension) as predictors of final and change-from-baseline visual acuity (VA; LogMAR).
Results
We identified 26 reports (n = 1197 participants), eleven of which reported VA analyses or data stratified by enhancement region. Despite conflicting reports on the association between final VA and enhancement region, most studies report against this association. Meta-regression across all studies similarly determined that, at the study level, there was no significant association of any ON segment nor region with final or change-from-baseline VA. Risk of bias analysis indicated generally favourable quality across included studies.
Conclusion
Studies with poorer VA outcome did not significantly differ in the proportion of patients with various ON regional enhancement patterns. Future studies stratifying VA by neuroimaging findings with raw data reported are needed.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Neurological Sciences provides a medium for the prompt publication of original articles in neurology and neuroscience from around the world. JNS places special emphasis on articles that: 1) provide guidance to clinicians around the world (Best Practices, Global Neurology); 2) report cutting-edge science related to neurology (Basic and Translational Sciences); 3) educate readers about relevant and practical clinical outcomes in neurology (Outcomes Research); and 4) summarize or editorialize the current state of the literature (Reviews, Commentaries, and Editorials).
JNS accepts most types of manuscripts for consideration including original research papers, short communications, reviews, book reviews, letters to the Editor, opinions and editorials. Topics considered will be from neurology-related fields that are of interest to practicing physicians around the world. Examples include neuromuscular diseases, demyelination, atrophies, dementia, neoplasms, infections, epilepsies, disturbances of consciousness, stroke and cerebral circulation, growth and development, plasticity and intermediary metabolism.
