The pathogenesis of DR is still unclear. The complement system, as an important component of the innate immune system in addition to defending against the invasion of foreign microorganisms, is involved in the occurrence and development of DR through 3 widely recognized complement activation pathways, the complement regulatory system, and many other pathways. Molecules such as C3a, C5a, and membrane attacking complex, as important molecules of the complement system, are involved in the pathologenesus of DR, either through direct damaging effects or by activating cells (microglia, macroglia, etc.) in the retinal microenvironment to contribute to the pathological damage of DR indirectly.

Retinal alterations in RA can function as biomarkers as early risk indicators for developing sight-threatening conditions. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides high-resolution images of the retina and its component’s thickness measures. The purpose of this review is to compare the choroidal thickness (CT) of RA patients and healthy controls. We examined the databases of PubMed, Scopus, and Embase. Depending on the heterogeneity, an appropriate model was used for the meta-analysis. Additionally, meta-regression, publication bias, subgroup analyses, and quality evaluation were carried out. We evaluated 8 studies involving 363 RA patients and 343 healthy controls. Our findings demonstrated that RA participants had significantly lower CT at 500 and 1500 µm nasal and temporal to the fovea compared to controls. The subfoveal, 1000 µm temporal and nasal to the fovea, and average CT, however, did not demonstrate statistical significance. The results of this study demonstrate that choroidal thickness is different in RA patients from healthy controls in several areas. OCT measurements may be related to both the visual acuity and the possibility of developing several rheumatic-ophthalmic problems. Future research is thus needed to get more firm findings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22102,"journal":{"name":"Survey of ophthalmology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139672717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The process can be divided into 3 stages: (1) donor evaluation and selection before tissue harvest performed by the retrieval team, (2) tissue analysis during the storage phase conducted by the eye bank technicians after the retrieval, and, (3) tissue quality checks undertaken by the surgeons in the operating room before transplantation.

Despite the variety of diagnostic techniques, it is unclear which modality is most accurate in the diagnosis of PVRL. A systematic literature search was conducted on Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane Controlled Register of Trials for studies published between January, 2000, and June, 2023. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reporting on the following diagnostic tools used to diagnose patients with PVRL were included: cytology, flow cytometry, MYD88 L265P mutation, CD79B mutation, interleukin 10/interleukin-6 (IL-10/IL-6) ratio, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for monoclonal immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) and immunoglobulin kappa light chain (IgK) rearrangements, and imaging findings. The aggregated sensitivity of each diagnostic modality was reported and compared using the chi-squared (χ2) test. A total of 662 eyes from 29 retrospective studies reporting on patients diagnosed with PVRL were included. An IL-10/IL-6 ratio greater than 1 had the highest sensitivity (89.39%, n = 278/311 eyes, n = 16 studies) for PVRL, where the sensitivity was not significantly different when only vitreous samples were drawn (88.89%, n = 232/261 eyes, n = 13 studies) compared to aqueous samples (83.33%, n = 20/24, n = 2) (p = 0.42).

Overall, our systematic review found that an IL-10/IL-6 ratio greater or equal to one may provide the highest sensitivity in identifying patients with PVRL.
