Ocular perfusion pressures in different types of glaucoma

Summary It is widely accepted that a disturbed blood supply of the optic disc may cause (in addition with an increased intraocular pressure) optic nerve fibre damage. Therefore we measured ocular perfusion pressures in 79 healthy subjects. In 18 patients with low tension glaucoma, in 27 patients suffering from ocular hypertension and in 49 glaucoma (OAG) patients. For measuring perfusion pressures we used the technique of oculooscillo-dynamography (OODG) as described by Ulrich. Additionally we measured intraocular pressure and systemic blood pressure. In OODG the IOP is simultaneously increased in both eyes by application of a suction cup. After increase of the IOP the negative pressure in the suction cup is slowly and linearly decreased. During this decrease the pulse-depending oscillations of each eye are recorded on a strip-chart-recorder. By means of this method retinal and ciliary perfusion pressures can be separated. As a result we could show that mean arterial blood pressure and systolic retinal perfusion pressure were comparable and not statistically significantly different between the groups examined. The systolic ocular perfusion pressures in patients with low tension glaucoma showed a highly statistically significant reduction compared with the other groups. Between healthy subjects, OAG-patients and patients suffering from ocular hypertension there was no difference in systolic ciliary perfusion pressure detectable.     

Extrapolating global visual field indices from local parameters in the nasal region

The local mean and the average difference of four pairs of test locations within the 26° visual field, situated above and below the horizontal nasal meridian, were used to predict the global field indices MD and CLV of the Gl glaucoma program. Out of 539 examinations (194 eyes suspected of having glaucoma), the local indices NDIFF (describing asymmetrical behavior around the nasal horizontal meridian), ND0 (the mean defect in the nasal region), and the global indices MD and CLV were calculated. Seven hundred fifty-five examinations (446 normal eyes) served as a control group. First and second examinations of 146 glaucoma suspect eyes were used to calculate the retest reliability scores for the indices in question. When analyzing the glaucoma suspects, the local index NDIFF, together with the local mean defect, ND0, yielded highly reliable estimates of the global indices MD and CLV, with a retest correlation r = 0.86 for NDIFF, and r = 0.96 for ND0. The covariance of NDIFF with CLV was r = 0.67, while the co-variance of MD with ND0 was r = 0.95.The ranges of the local indices ND0 and NDIFF were each classified into normal range and range of suspected pathology, in analogy to the normal and pathological ranges of the global field indices. Equivalence of the local indices with the corresponding ranges of MD and CLV was investigated and the results are shown. The establishment of local indices may prove to be a powerful tool in early detection of glaucomatous damage.     

白内障伴青光眼患者术后胰岛素抵抗及炎症因子水平与视觉质量的关系

目的分析白内障伴青光眼患者术后胰岛素抵抗及炎症因子水平变化与视觉质量的关系。 方法选取47例(47眼)白内障伴青光眼患者为研究对象,均接受超声乳化+小梁切除术治疗。术前、术后7天、术后3个月检测患者客观散射指数(OSI)、点扩散函数(PSF)、调制传递函数截止频率(MTF cutoff)、胰岛素敏感指数及白细胞介素(IL)-1β、IL-10、IL-2水平。采用Pearson法分析视觉质量参数与胰岛素抵抗情况及炎症因子的相关性。 结果与术前比较,术后7天和术后3个月最佳校正视力、MTF cutoff及胰岛素敏感指数升高,且术后3个月更高(P＜0.05);与术前比较,术后7天和术后3个月眼压、角膜内皮细胞计数、PSF、OSI及血清IL-1β、IL-2、IL-10水平降低,且术后3个月更低(P＜0.05)。Pearson分析显示,术前、术后7天和术后3个月,白内障伴青光眼患者OSI与胰岛素敏感指数呈负相关(P＜0.05),与血清IL-1β、IL-2、IL-10水平呈正相关(P＜0.05);MTF cutoff与胰岛素敏感指数呈正相关(P＜0.05),与血清IL-1β、IL-2、IL-10水平呈负相关(P＜0.05);PSF与血清IL-1β水平呈负相关(P＜0.05)。术后7天和3个月,PSF与胰岛素敏感指数呈正相关(P＜0.05),与血清IL-2、IL-10水平呈负相关(P＜0.05)。 结论超声乳化联合小梁切除术对视觉质量的改善可能与胰岛素抵抗及炎症因子变化密切相关。     

The long-tube single plate Molteno implant for the treatment of recalcitrant glaucoma

One hundred cases of recalcitrant glaucoma were operated with a long tube single-plate Molteno implant (LSMI). At the median follow-up of 15 months an intraocular pressure of 19 mm Hg was obtained in 64 of the 87 eyes (73%) which have a minimum follow-up of 6 months (secondary non-neovascular glaucomas=19; congenital glaucomas=26; secondary neovascular glaucomas=12). The interval probability (percentage±standard error) of obtaining a successful result (IOP19 mmHg) was 79% (±13) at twelve months from surgery, and 53% (±24) at the eighteen month interval. The least favorable results were obtained in the secondary non-neovascular glaucomas. Complications observed included choroidal detachment (24%), tube exposure (4%), tube-endothelium contact (6%), plus band keratopathy, fibrous ingrowth, traction retinal detachment and corneal ulcers.Seventeen cases needed repeate surgery for the management of complications. In order to decrease the post-operative hypotony, we have been using a tourniquet suture around the tube at the time of implantation to occlude it temporarily and limit the outflow.

Interstitial Stress and Fluid Pressure Within a Growing Tumor

A solid tumor is composed of a population of cells that is expanding as a result of cell division. With dense cell packing, the solid matrix of the interstitial tissue is subject to residual stress. In addition, elevated interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) has been reported by researchers for a number of solid tumors. These features were incorporated into a mathematical model that predicts the mechanical response of a solid tumor within its host environment. A theoretical framework accounting for volumetric expansion, transvascular exchange and extravascular transport of fluids was developed using poroelastic theory, and applied to a spherical, vascularized, alymphatic tumor undergoing small growth increments. Simulations of tumor IFP were similar to those predicted by Jain and Baxter (Ref. 23), showing elevated IFP that is driven by microvascular fluid pressure. Tumor growth, tissue stiffness, and IFP contribute to the compressive stresses predicted in the solid tumor interior. Tensile and compressive stresses were predicted in adjacent host tissues corresponding to radial and circumferential directions, respectively. An application of this model includes a solid stress-based framework for predicting regions of vascular collapse within the tumor interior. © 2003 Biomedical Engineering Society.

PCR-based assays for the detection of monoclonality in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma: application to formalin-fixed,paraffin-embedded tissue and decalcified bone marrow samples

In crucial cases the diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) still represents a challenge to the pathologist since morphological criteria do not always help to distinguish between reactive and malignant lymphoproliferations. Clonality assays are a useful supplement since monoclonal cell proliferation is strong evidence for malignancy. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be utilized to establish the clonal origin of B-or T-cell lymphocyte populations by amplification of rearranged immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor (TCR) genes. In the present study DNA was isolated from a variety of neoplastic and nonneoplastic formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded lymph nodes (n=62), cutaneous tissue (n=9), samples of miscellaneous origin (n=11), and, reported here for the first time, decalcified bone marrow samples (n=35). These samples were submitted to PCR-based assays directed against the immunoglobulin heavy-chain (IgH), immunoglobulin light-chain (IgL), and TCR chain genes. The impact of various decalcifying agents on the ability to amplify DNA was investigated by PCR-based amplification of a single copy gene. Buffered and nonbuffered EDTA was found not to impede amplification of DNA fragments up to 300 bp in length. In lymph node and cutaneous specimens monoclonality was detected in 83% of B-NHL cases using a seminested PCR approach for the amplification of IgH, whereas the same approach gave rise to monoclonal bands in 80% of bone marrow samples. The subsequent amplification of IgL helped to raise the sensitivity of detection to 94%. Monoclonality was detected in seven of nine T-cell NHLs by amplification of TCR. Most of the false-negative results were related to DNA extracted from centroblastic-centrocytic lymphoma and lymphoplasmocytic immunocytoma (37% negative each). PCR-based rearrangement analysis of immunoglobulin and TCR chain genes should be used in diagnostic pathology for cases which are histopathologically and immunohistochemically questionable. The application of clonality assays to bone marrow samples previously decalcified with EDTA provides a new tool for the detection of minimal residual disease.Abbreviations BALT bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue - dNTP deoxynucleoside triphosphate - Ig immunoglobulin - IgH immunoglobulin heavy chain - IgL immunoglobulin light chain - MALT mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue - NHL non-Hodgkin's lymphoma - PCR polymerase chain reaction - TCR T-cell receptor
