“…Exposures included were selected on the basis of association with development of chronic open-angle glaucoma in peer-reviewed literature. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42] Some exposures were 'by patient' while others were 'by eye'. Exposures were either be derived from baseline characteristics, for example, the presence of a or b parapapillary atrophy, or were obtained from sequential measurements made during routine clinical review, such as IOP variation during the study.…”

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate routine ophthalmic data to identify clinically useful risk factors for progressive visual field loss in patients with primary openangle glaucoma (POAG) already receiving intraocular pressure-lowering treatments. Methods A retrospective cohort study design was used. Routine ophthalmic data for all subjects were obtained from case records with the knowledge that baseline clinical data had been collected in a standardised manner. Progression was defined according to the AGIS visual field defect scoring system. Variables evaluated as candidate risk factors for progression were assessed by survival analysis. Factors exerting a significant effect on survival were subsequently tested in a Cox proportional hazards model. Results A cohort of 108 eligible POAG patients was followed over an average of 3.6 years, with an average visual field intertest interval of 8 months. The incidence rate of progressive loss among the cohort was 5.4 cases per 100 person years. Increasing age was found to be independently associated with a small but significantly increased risk of glaucomatous visual field defect progression (hazard ratio 1.07, P ¼ 0.022), and a borderline association was also demonstrated with being male (hazard ratio 2.76, P ¼ 0.057). Conclusions This retrospective investigation has provided preliminary information on factors associated with increased risk of progressive glaucomatous visual field loss that may inform clinical care strategies. Lack of concordance with other studies suggests that further prospective investigations are needed if risk stratification strategies are to be employed in caring for patients with chronic open-angle glaucoma.

“…Vários autores têm sugerido que anormalidades vasculares podem estar presentes na vasculatura periférica de pacientes com história de crises de enxaqueca (34)(35)(36) . Suporte a estes achados é fornecido pela observação de que pacientes com enxaqueca apresentam uma maior incidência de condições de origem presumivelmente vascular como glaucoma de pressão normal (37)(38)(39) , fenômeno de Raynaud (40,41) e angina variante (42,43) .…”

Análise da camada de fibras ner vosas da retina em portadores de enxaqueca com aura Objetivo: Avaliar as possíveis alterações na camada de fibras nervosas da retina (CFNR) em pacientes com enxaqueca com aura, detectada por meio da polarimetria de varredura a laser. Métodos: Vinte pacientes com enxaqueca com aura e vinte indivíduos normais foram estudados. Os critérios de inclusão para os dois grupos compreenderam: idade de pelo menos 18 anos; ausência de história de doenças oculares, exceto erro refracional ou estrabismo; e ausência de história familiar de hipertensão ocular ou glaucoma. Foram excluídos pacientes com erro refracional maior que 5 DE e/ou 2 DC; acuidade visual corrigida menor que 20/40; pressão intra-ocular maior que 21 mmHg; discos ópticos anômalos ou com escavação maior que 0,5 ou assimetria de escavação maior que 0,2; ou com presença de doenças retinianas concomitantes. Os pacientes foram submetidos a exame de campo visual (Humphrey 30-2) e análise da CFNR com a polarimetria a laser (GDx -Nerve Fiber Analyzer). Um olho de cada paciente foi randomizado para análise estatística. Resultados: Nenhum dos pacientes do grupo controle apresentou defeitos de campo visual. Nove olhos (45%) dos pacientes com enxaqueca tiveram anormalidades de campo visual além de 95% do intervalo de confiança do normal, como indicado pelos índices MD, CPSD ou GHT. Os valores de retardo no setor superior da CFNR dos pacientes com enxaqueca foram significativamente menor que no grupo controle (p=0,005). Não houve diferença significativa entre os valores de retardo dos dois grupos nas medidas globais e nos setores inferior, nasal e temporal. Conclusão: As medidas de retardo obtidas com a polarimetria a laser foram significativamente menores na porção superior da CFNR dos pacientes com enxaqueca com aura, sugerindo possível dano isquêmico às fibras nervosas, relacionadas à enxaqueca.Retinal nerve fiber layer measurements in patients with migraine with aura
