    Analysis of Choroidal Thickness in AP-ROP, Threshold Disease and ROP Without Laser Photocoagulation
    (2016) Gokgoz-Ozisik, G.; Akkoyun, Imren; Oto, S.; Bayar, S.

    Background. Enhanced depth imaging (EDI) and spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) provide high-definition cross-sectional images of the choroid. Information on alterations in choroidal thickness (CT) after laser photocoagulation (LC) in aggressive posterior retinopathy of prematurity (APROP) and threshold disease (TD) is rare. Patients and methods. A total of 75 eyes were retrospectively analyzed in 4 groups. Groups 1 and 2 included patients with APROP and TD, respectively, who underwent LC. Group 3 included ROP children who did not undergo LC and group 4 included full-term children. Infants aged >= 4 < 7, who had examination of subfoveal (SF) CT with SD-EDI-OCT, visual acuity (VA), spherical equivalent (SE), anterior segment and fundus examination, axial lenght (AXL) were included. The results of SFCT, VA and SE at the age of >= 4 < 7 years, AXL, gestational age (GA), birth weight (BW) and age at examination were compared between the groups. Potential risk factors (GA, BW, SE, AXL and SFCT) influencing visual acuity were evaluated by using multivariate linear regression analysis. Results. The results of SFCT and AXL were not significantly different between groups 2 and 3 or between groups 3 and 4. There was a significant difference between the other groups for SFCT and AXL and VA was significantly different between all groups. The SE was not significantly different between groups 3 and 4 but there was a significant difference for SE, BW and GA between the groups. Age at examination was not significantly different between the groups. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed SFCT for groups 1 and 2, GA for group 3 and GA, SFCT and AXL for group 4 as independent risk factors influencing visual acuity. Conclusion. The regression model used for groups 1-4 explains the variation of the dependent risk factor LogMar VA for groups 1-4 with 31.2 %, 43.5 %, 9.6 % and 69.4 %, respectively. These values expressed in percentage demonstrate that even more predictors may influence the dependent factor LogMar VA than evaluated in the study.

    Spectral domain optical coherence tomography findings in Turkish sickle-cell disease and beta thalassemia major patients
    (2019) Ulusoy, Mahmut Oguz; Turk, Hakan; Kivanc, Sertac Argun; 31528761
    Purpose: To assess probable structural changes using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) on sickle-cell disease (SCD) and beta thalassemia major (B-TM) patients, without any retinal abnormalities. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 32 B-TM, 34 SCD patients, and 44 healthy controls. One of the eyes of all participants was evaluated for SD-OCT and choroidal thickness, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, central macular thickness (CMT), ganglion cell complex (GCC). Results: Age, gender, and intraocular pressure (IOP) were not statistically different between the three groups. Hemoglobin (Hgb), hematocrite (Htc), and ferritin levels were not statistically different between the SCD and B-TM groups. Choroidal thickness at the subfoveal region was statistically higher in the control group (353.79 +/- 71.93) than in the B-TM (317.41 +/- 53.44) and SCD (283.21 +/- 63.27) groups. In addition, it was statistically higher in the B-TM group than the SCD group (P = 0.05). CMT did not differ among the three groups, average RNFL was only significantly thinner in SCD than in controls, and GCC thickness was significantly thinner in SCD than in controls and B-TM. Conclusion: In both diseases, we can show early structural changes even if proliferative or non-proliferative retinopathy or other ocular manifestations were not developed yet.
