Preoperative aqueous humour flare values do not predict proliferative vitreoretinopathy in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) who develop postoperative proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) have been found to have higher preoperative laser flare values than patients with RRD who do not develop this complication. Measurement of laser flare has therefore been proposed as an objective, rapid and non-invasive method for identifying high-risk patients. T...
متن کاملProliferative vitreoretinopathy.
PURPOSE. The migration, proliferation, differentiation, and adhesion of cells and other cellular functions are influenced by the surrounding extracellular matrix, in normal and wound-healing conditions. The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of enzymes that degrade and remodel the extracellular matrix and, thus, play a central role in the wound-healing process. Proliferative vitreore...
متن کاملIntravitreal Injection of Bevacizumab as Adjunctive Treatment for Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy
Objectives: To evaluate the midterm anatomical and functional outcomes of intravitreal injection bevacizumab in silicone oil–filled eyes as an adjunctive treatment for proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Material/patients and Method: The study included all 16 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy for treatment of proliferative vitreoretinopathy grade C or D, who received pars plana vitrecto...
متن کاملApoptosis in proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
PURPOSE To study the involvement of apoptosis using different apoptosis markers in PVR pathogenesis. METHODS The presence of mRNA coding for Fas, Fas ligand (FasL), and TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) was investigated in vitreous samples from 46 consecutive patients-25 with PVR, 11 with retinal detachment (RD) not complicated by PVR, and 10 with macular hole (MH)-using RT-PCR. F...
متن کاملO20: NK Cells as Surrogate Marker for Predicting Treatment Efficacy in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy
Natural Killer (NK) cells are part of our innate immune system with regulatory and effector functions. Different studies suggest that treatment with intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIg) has an immunomodulatory effect on NK cells. IVIg is a first-line treatment for various autoimmune diseases in particular in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). The lack of predictive markers ...
