    Choroidal vascularity index changes with phacovitrectomy for vitreoretinal interface disorders
    (2022) Ercan, Zeynep Eylul; Gokgoz, Gulsah; Yilmaz, Gursel; 35918960
    Purpose: Vitreomacular interface disorders have long been argued to change choroidal structure. The aim of this study was to determine the choroidal vascularity index (CVI) changes following internal limiting membrane peeling for epiretinal membrane (ERM) and full thickness macular hole (FTMH). Methods: Fifty-nine patients with unilateral ERM and 56 with unilateral FTMH were induded in the study. Axial length, pre- and post-surgery intraocular pressure, baseline and post-phacovitrectomy CVI were calculated and compared with the normal fellow eyes. To compare the baseline and the final measurements, Wilcoxon test was used. Mann-Whitney U test was used for independent data comparisons. Median and standard deviations were compared. Results: Axial length, pre- and post-surgery intraocular pressure differences were insignificant between study and fellow eyes within all groups. CVI were significantly lower in post-vitrectomy study eyes of all groups compared with pre-surgery (P < 0.001). There were no significant changes before and after the surgeries in fellow eyes. Baseline CVI of ERM study eyes (median 65.90%) and FTHM study eyes (median 65.59%) did not differ significantly between groups (U = 1336, P = 0.07, r = 0.16). Conclusion: There are conflicting results of vitreoretinal interface disorders CVI in the literature. In this study, both FTMH and ERM eyes showed reduced CVI postoperatively compared with the baseline. Preoperatively, there were no difference between study eyes and the fellow eyes.

    Retinal Scan with Optical Coherence Tomography in Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
    (2021) Tunel, Munevver; Sahinoglu Keskek, Nedime
    Objective: In this study, the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thicknesses were compared between adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) cases and healthy controls. Method: The study included adults diagnosed with ADHD based on the DSM-5 criteria and age and gender matched healthy controls. Spectral area optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed on the 52 eyes of 26 participants with ADHD and the 52 eyes of the 26 healthy control individuals. Results: Comparing the data on the 52 eyes of 26 ADHD participants and the 52 eyes of 26 healthy control participants indicated that the central macular thickness (CMT) and the RNFL thicknesses, the ganglion cell complex (GCC), the mean inner macular ring (MIRAVG) and the mean outer macular ring (MOR-AVG) thicknesses were significantly lower in the ADHD group. Conclusion: This is the first study in the literature on the RNFL thickness in adult ADHD patients. Our findings demonstrated that RNFL thickness is lower in ADHD cases as the unmyelinated axons are reduced in ADHD. Hence, the quantitative and reproducible nature of Spectral Domain-OCT thickness measurements can be used as biomarkers to monitor disease progression in ADHD cases.

    The Diagnostic Ability of Ganglion Cell Complex Thickness-to-Total Retinal Thickness Ratio in Glaucoma in a Caucasian Population
    (2020) Sezenoz, Almila Sarigul; Gungor, Sirel Gur; Akman, Ahmet; Ozturk, Caner; Cezairlioglu, Sefik; Aksoy, Mustafa; Colak, Meric; 0000-0002-0294-6874; 0000-0002-7030-5454; 0000-0001-6178-8362; 0000-0003-1513-7686; 0000-0002-1507-8148; 32167260; AAA-4360-2021; AAJ-4860-2021; AAD-5967-2021
    Objectives: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the macular ganglion cell complex-to-total retinal thickness (G/T) ratio in a Caucasian population. Materials and Methods: A total of 86 patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Patients were divided into 4 groups: healthy; ocular hypertension; preperimetric glaucoma; and early glaucoma. Macular ganglion cell complex (mGCC) thickness, total retinal thickness, and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) in one randomly selected eye of each patient were measured with measured with Heidelberg HD spectral domain optical coherence tomography (Heidelberg Engineering, Inc., Heidelberg, Germany). G/T ratio (%) was calculated as (mGCC thickness / total retinal thickness) x100. The ability of each parameter to diagnose glaucoma was examined by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) analysis and sensitivity evaluation at a fixed level of specificity. Unpaired t test was used to compare the measured values between the healthy subjects and the different patient groups. Results: The study included 9 healthy individuals, 18 patients with ocular hypertension, 28 with preperimetric glaucoma, and 31 with early glaucoma. Total retinal thickness, mGCC thickness, RNFLT, and G/T ratio were highest in the healthy group and decreased progressively in patients with ocular hypertension, preperimecric glaucoma, and early glaucoma. All comparisons between the groups were significant for these parameters (p<0.001 for all). Average RNFLT, average GCC, and total retinal thickness showed consistently higher AUROC than G/T ratio in the differentiation between healthy individuals and patients with ocular hypertension, preperimetric glaucoma, and early glaucoma. Conclusion: G/T ratio does not contribute to separation of ocular hypertension, preperimetric glaucoma, and early glaucoma patients from the healthy population. Compared to the other parameters investigated, G/T had lower diagnostic value
