Photon radiation therapy (PhRT) is the most common treatment for sight-threatening ONSM. Proton beam therapy (PBT) is less commonly used because it is more expensive and because there are questions about its efficacy specifically in relation to ONSM. PBT has the theoretical advantage of reducing radiation exposure to adjacent structures. We report the visual outcome of patients with primary ONSM managed at the Fondation Ophtalmologique Adolphe de Rothschild, Paris, France, and treated with PBT at the Centre de Protonthérapie, Institut Curie, Orsay, France.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We conducted a retrospective review of all patients with primary ONSM who received PBT (either by itself or following surgery) between January 2006 and January 2019. Neuro-ophthalmic examinations were performed at presentation and after radiotherapy, and, when applicable, after surgery. Meningiomas were measured at the time of diagnosis and at each follow-up MRI examination.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Sixty patients (50 women, 10 men; mean age, 45.2±11.1y) were included, of whom 29 underwent surgery. At presentation, 52 (87%) of them had decreased vision (average visual acuity: 0.6 logMAR). Fundus examination showed optic disc swelling (n=27; 46.5%), optic disc pallor (n=22; 37.9%), optic disc cupping (n=2; 3.4%), opto-ciliary shunt (n=8; 13.8%), or choroidal folds (n=5; 8.6%). Otherwise, it was unremarkable (n=7; 12.1%). After treatment, visual function was stable overall. Fundus examination showed pallor (n=47; 83.9%), swelling (n=3; 5.4%), or cupping (n=2; 3.4%) of the optic disc, or was unremarkable (n=5; 8.9%). The visual field of 8 patients worsened, while 3 developed asymptomatic retinal hemorrhages. Tumor shrunk significantly in 8 patients at 1 year after PBT and remained stable in size in all others.

Although numerous studies have reported ocular anomalies related to Down syndrome, it remains challenging to determine the impact of each anomaly upon the decreased visual acuity, as most such individuals have more than one ocular problem.

Pediatric ophthalmological examination is a critical component of a multidisciplinary approach to prevent and treat ocular complications and improve the visual outcome in children with Down syndrome.

We are aware of his many creative contributions to the field of glaucoma and neurodegeneration. We fully agree that impaired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics may play a crucial role in normal-tension glaucoma as well as in the pathophysiology of other neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer ́s and Parkinson ́s disease. Elevated Lipocalin-type prostaglandin D-synthase (L-PGDS) levels in the lumbar CSF in our cohort of normal-tension glaucoma patients compared to the concentration measured in healthy controls in other studies might indeed indicate generalized dysfunctional CSF dynamics in patients with normal-tension glaucoma. CSF and its content are distributed between the extracranial and the intercranial CSF spaces, eg, subarachnoid spaces, cisterns and ventricles. In order for CSF to perform its multiple functions, it also needs to be distributed within the parenchyma of the brain and the optic nerve itself. It therefore would be of great interest to know more about the concentration of proteins, such as L-PGDS, alpha synuclein and abetalipoprotein not only in the CSF surrounding the brain, but in the brain parenchyma (interstitial fluid) as well. The mechanism by which it is transported within parenchyma is still shrouded in mystery and should be subject of future studies.","PeriodicalId":51844,"journal":{"name":"Eye and Brain","volume":"13 ","pages":"157-158"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2021-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/f2/ce/eb-13-157.PMC8164671.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39055353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Retinal abnormalities observed in postmortem human tissues and animal models are similar to spinal cord changes in ALS. These findings are not dramatically unexpected because retina shares an ontogenetic relationship with the brain, and many genes are associated both with neurodegeneration and retinal diseases. Experimental studies have demonstrated that ALS affects many \"vulnerable points\" of the retina. Aggregate deposition, impaired nuclear protein import, endoplasmic reticulum stress, glutamate excitotoxicity, vascular regression, and mitochondrial dysfunction are factors suspected as being the main cause of motor neuron damage in ALS.
