Article Synopsis
- A new posterior pole protocol effectively detects differences in retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell layer (GCL) thickness between multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and healthy controls, indicating its potential for early disease assessment.!* -
- Analysis involved 66 healthy eyes and 100 eyes from remitting-relapsing MS patients, categorized by the duration of their symptoms and disease conversion for better understanding of thickness variations.!* -
- Significant differences in layer thickness were found, with RNFL thickness strongly correlating to disability status (measured by EDSS) and GCL thickness being more closely tied to the duration of the disease.!*
Background: To evaluate the neuroretina and retinal vasculature of fibromyalgia (FM) patients and calculate a linear discriminant function (LDF) to improve retinal parameters' contribution to FM diagnosis.
Methods: Fifty FM patients and 232 healthy controls underwent retinal evaluation using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) angiography (Triton plus; Topcon) and spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) (Spectralis; Heidelberg). The macular (m) and peripapillary (p) retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell layer (GCL) were assessed, as was the macular vascular density.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how well swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) with angiography analysis (SS-OCTA) can identify changes in the retina and blood vessels of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and essential tremor (ET).
- A total of 42 PD patients, 26 ET patients, and 146 healthy controls were analyzed, focusing on specific retinal layers and macular vasculature, with results indicating significant neuro-retinal thinning in both PD and ET, but more pronounced in PD patients.
- Findings suggest that while SS-OCT can assist in diagnosing both conditions, its predictive diagnostic power, measured by a linear discriminant function, is only applicable to PD, indicating a lack of distinct differentiation
Retinal neurodegeneration in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without diabetic retinopathy.
Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol (Engl Ed)

In diabetes mellitus (DM) patients retinal complications were typically considered part of a vascular process. Recent research suggests that retinal degeneration in DM might also be caused by a neuropathy that could precede microvascular alterations. The present work reviews the currently available bibliography about neurodegeneration in patients with type 2 DM (DM2) without diabetic retinopathy (DR).

Methods: Thirty-eight patients with BD and 122 healthy subjects underwent visual acuity (VA) evaluation, contrast sensitivity vision testing (CSV) with the Pelli Robson and CSV 1000E tests, and retinal thicknesses measurement [ganglion cell layer (GCL) and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL)] using Spectralis Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). All subjects were re-evaluated after 5 years.
