Characterization of the Disorganization of the Inner Retinal Layers in Diabetics Using Increased Axial Resolution Optical Coherence Tomography.
Purpose: To compare a novel high-resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) with improved axial resolution (High-Res OCT) with conventional spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT) with regard to their capacity to characterize the disorganization of the retinal inner layers (DRIL) in diabetic maculopathy.
Methods: Diabetic patients underwent multimodal retinal imaging (SD-OCT, High-Res OCT, and color fundus photography). Best-corrected visual acuity and diabetes characteristics were recorded. DR was graded using the international clinical diabetic retinopathy severity scale (DRSS). In each OCT B-scan, retinal layers were segmented and the loss of discernibility was annotated. DRIL areas were analyzed in en face projection using FIJI plugins. The Wilcoxon test and regression models were used for statistical analysis.
Results: In 93 eyes of 93 patients (mean age, 61.8 ± 12.9 years) DRIL was identified in 48 eyes. DRIL was most frequent in the central subfield (27%). In DRIL eyes, DRSS was significantly higher (4.43 ± 1.01 vs. 2.12 ± 1.66; P < 0.001), BCVA was significantly worse (0.34 ± 0.38 vs. 0.13 ± 0.22; P < 0.001), and the loss of discernibility of the individual inner retinal layers was significantly smaller in High-Res OCT compared with SD-OCT (0.21 ± 0.29 vs. 1.21 ± 1.21 mm2; P < 0.001). The discernibility loss was greatest in the retinal nerve fiber layer and ganglion cell layer.
Conclusions: DRIL occurs in eyes with advanced diabetic retinopathy, with a characteristic spread: from the inner toward the outer retina. High-Res OCT shows significantly smaller DRIL areas compared with SD-OCT, because of a more precise delineation of the inner retinal layers.
Translational relevance: Using OCT with increased axial resolution could enhance our understanding of DRIL development and progression, providing deeper insights into pathophysiological aspects, including malperfusion in the inner capillary plexus.
期刊介绍：
Translational Vision Science & Technology (TVST), an official journal of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO), an international organization whose purpose is to advance research worldwide into understanding the visual system and preventing, treating and curing its disorders, is an online, open access, peer-reviewed journal emphasizing multidisciplinary research that bridges the gap between basic research and clinical care. A highly qualified and diverse group of Associate Editors and Editorial Board Members is led by Editor-in-Chief Marco Zarbin, MD, PhD, FARVO.
The journal covers a broad spectrum of work, including but not limited to:
Applications of stem cell technology for regenerative medicine,
Development of new animal models of human diseases,
Tissue bioengineering,
Chemical engineering to improve virus-based gene delivery,
Nanotechnology for drug delivery,
Design and synthesis of artificial extracellular matrices,
Development of a true microsurgical operating environment,
Refining data analysis algorithms to improve in vivo imaging technology,
Results of Phase 1 clinical trials,
Reverse translational ("bedside to bench") research.
TVST seeks manuscripts from scientists and clinicians with diverse backgrounds ranging from basic chemistry to ophthalmic surgery that will advance or change the way we understand and/or treat vision-threatening diseases. TVST encourages the use of color, multimedia, hyperlinks, program code and other digital enhancements.
