Purpose

To assess the efficacy of slanted bilateral lateral rectus recession (S-BLR) versus conventional bilateral lateral rectus recession (C-BLR) in children with convergence insufficiency intermittent exotropia (CI-IXT).

Design

Multicentre, randomized controlled trial.

Methods

Chinese children aged 5–12 years with CI-IXT were consecutively enrolled, and randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either S-BLR or C-BLR. The primary outcome was the 12-month overall success rate, defined as a postoperative residual deviation between 10Δ of exodeviation and 5Δ of esodeviation with near-distance disparity (NDD) < 10Δ.

Results

A total of 200 participants were enrolled, and 188 (97 S-BLR, 91 C-BLR) were finally included in the modified intention-to-treat analysis. The median age was 8 (6−9) years, and 90 (48 %) were male. The 12-month overall success rates did not differ significantly between the groups (group difference 8 %, P = 0.27, adjusted P = 0.36). However, S-BLR exhibited a lower rate of near undercorrection (group difference −12 %, P = 0.06), more collapse of NDD (-2.00Δ, P = 0.001), less residual near exodeviation (-4.00Δ, P < 0.001), better control of near exodeviation (0.00, P = 0.01), and a higher proportion of improved stereoacuity (12 %, P = 0.06). Subgroup analysis for NDD≤ 15Δ revealed a higher success rate of near deviation (86 % versus 69 %, P = 0.02), and a lower rate of near undercorrection (13 % versus 30 %, P = 0.01) in S-BLR group. Aside from undercorrection and overcorrection, no additional long-term suboptimal surgical outcomes were observed.

Conclusions

Although the overall success rates did not differ, S-BLR showed potential superiority at near in children with CI-IXT. More participants with NDD> 15Δ, and a longer follow-up are needed to validate these findings.
目的:评价斜向双侧直肌收缩术(S-BLR)与常规双侧直肌收缩术(C-BLR)治疗会敛功能不全儿童间歇性外斜视(CI-IXT)的疗效。设计:多中心、随机对照试验。方法:连续入组5-12岁CI-IXT患儿,按1:1比例随机分为S-BLR组和C-BLR组。主要结果是12个月的总成功率,定义为10Δ外偏和5Δ内偏之间的术后剩余偏差与近距离差异(NDD)。结果:总共有200名参与者入组,188名(97名S-BLR, 91名C-BLR)最终被纳入改进的意向治疗分析。中位年龄为8岁(6-9岁),男性90例(48%)。组间12个月总成功率无显著差异(组间差异8%,P = 0.27,调整后P = 0.36)。然而,S-BLR表现出较低的近矫正不足率(组差-12%,P= 0.06),更多的NDD塌陷(-2.00Δ, P= 0.001),更少的残余近外偏差(-4.00Δ, P < 0.001),更好的控制近外偏差(0.00,P=0.01)和更高的立体视力改善比例(12%,P= 0.06)。NDD≤15Δ的亚组分析显示,S-BLR组的近偏差成功率较高(86%对69%,P = 0.02),近欠校正率较低(13%对30%,P = 0.01)。除矫正不足和矫正过度外,未观察到其他长期次优手术结果。结论:虽然总体成功率没有差异,但S-BLR在CI-IXT患儿中显示出潜在的优势。需要更多患有NDD>15Δ的参与者和更长的随访来验证这些发现。

As the world’s population ages, the focus of healthcare is shifting from extending life span to promoting health span. There is an unmet need to identify sensitive and reliable markers of health span through more cost-effective and non-invasive methods, to enable early and effective intervention on modifiable aging factors. The eye offers a unique window into systemic health, providing direct visualization of the body’s vascular and neural health. This review presents an overview of how various ocular structures can serve as biomarkers of health span—drawing on insights from ocular imaging, metabolomics, and proteomics, with evidence from basic science, animal models, and human clinical trials. The role of artificial intelligence (AI) in predicting biological age and the risk of age-related systemic conditions is also highlighted, with a focus on current applications and how AI is being integrated to synthesize and interpret multimodal data.
随着世界人口老龄化,医疗保健的重点正从延长寿命转向促进健康寿命。通过更具成本效益和非侵入性的方法确定敏感和可靠的健康跨度标志,以便能够对可改变的衰老因素进行早期和有效的干预,这一需求尚未得到满足。眼睛为观察全身健康提供了一个独特的窗口,提供了对身体血管和神经健康的直接可视化。这篇综述概述了各种眼部结构如何作为健康跨度的生物标志物,利用眼部成像、代谢组学和蛋白质组学的见解,以及基础科学、动物模型和人体临床试验的证据。还强调了人工智能(AI)在预测生物年龄和与年龄相关的系统性疾病风险方面的作用,重点是当前的应用以及如何将人工智能集成到综合和解释多模态数据中。

Purpose

To evaluate 1-year efficacy and safety of aflibercept 8 mg in Asian patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) in the PULSAR (NCT04423718) trial.

Design

Subgroup analysis of the Phase 3 PULSAR trial.

Methods

Patients aged ≥ 50 years with nAMD were randomized to receive intravitreal aflibercept 8 mg every 12 (8q12) or 16 (8q16) weeks, or aflibercept 2 mg every 8 weeks (2q8), following 3 initial monthly injections. Outcomes included change from baseline in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central subfield retinal thickness (CRT), durability, and safety at week (W) 48.

Findings

Overall, 234 Asian patients participated and received study treatment (8q12 [n = 74], 8q16 [n = 77], and 2q8 [n = 83]). At W48, the least squares (LS) mean (95 % CI) BCVA change from baseline was + 9.9 (6.9, 12.9), + 9.2 (7.1, 11.2), and + 7.6 (4.7, 10.5) letters in the 8q12, 8q16, and 2q8 groups, respectively. The LS mean (95 % CI) change in CRT from baseline to W48 for the 8q12, 8q16, and 2q8 groups was −141 (−152, −129), −156 (−167, −146), and −142 (−155, −129) µm, respectively. Most patients receiving 8q12 (85 %) or 8q16 (87 %), maintained their randomized dosing interval, through W48. The safety profile of aflibercept 8 mg was comparable to aflibercept 2 mg.

Conclusions

Aflibercept 8 mg was effective and well tolerated in Asian patients with nAMD, with demonstrated improvements in functional and anatomic outcomes comparable to aflibercept 2 mg at W48. Aflibercept 8 mg outcomes were achieved with fewer injections than with aflibercept 2 mg, consistent with overall PULSAR results.
目的:在PULSAR (NCT04423718)试验中评估阿非利赛普8mg治疗亚洲新生血管性年龄相关性黄斑变性(nAMD)患者1年的疗效和安全性。设计:3期PULSAR试验的亚组分析。方法:年龄≥50岁的nAMD患者随机接受每12周(8q12)或16周(8q16)周玻璃体内注射阿非利塞普8mg,或每8周(2q8)注射阿非利塞普2mg,最初每月注射3次。结果包括第48周最佳矫正视力(BCVA)和中央亚视野视网膜厚度(CRT)、耐久性和安全性从基线的变化。结果:总体而言,234名亚洲患者参与并接受了研究治疗(8q12 [n = 74], 8q16 [n = 77], 2q8 [n = 83])。在W48时,8q12、8q16和2q8组的最小二乘(LS)均值(95% CI) BCVA较基线变化分别为+9.9(6.9,12.9)、+9.2(7.1,11.2)和+7.6(4.7,10.5)个字母。8q12、8q16和2q8组CRT从基线到W48的LS平均值(95% CI)变化分别为-141(-152,-129)、-156(-167,-146)和-142(-155,-129)µm。大多数接受8q12(85%)或8q16(87%)治疗的患者在W48期间维持其随机给药间隔。阿伯西普8mg的安全性与阿伯西普2mg相当。结论:阿非利西普8mg对亚洲nAMD患者有效且耐受性良好,与阿非利西普2mg在W48时相比,在功能和解剖结果方面有明显改善。与阿非利西普2mg相比,阿非利西普8mg的注射次数更少,与总体PULSAR结果一致。

Postoperative endophthalmitis rate associated with routine off-label reuse of single-use phacoemulsification cassettes in more than 1,000,000 consecutive surgeries 在超过100万例连续手术中,术后眼内炎发生率与常规超说明书重复使用一次性超声乳化盒相关。

According to a 2025 APAO survey, reuse of phacoemulsification tubing and cassettes appears to be more common in Asian-Pacific countries compared to Europe and North America. We analyzed the phacoemulsification postoperative endophthalmitis (POE) rate from 2016 to 2024 at the Aravind Eye Care System’s 15 hospital network. Single-use phacoemulsification cassettes were routinely reused all day (off label) at every facility during this 9-year period. The POE rate was 0.01 % in 1,133,959 consecutive cases. This rate was consistent from year to year and compared favorably with contemporaneous POE data from the American Academy of Ophthalmology Intelligent Research in Sight (IRIS) Registry (0.06 %), where presumably no reuse of phacoemulsification cassettes would have been allowed. We found no evidence that reusing the same phacoemulsification tubing and cassette all day increased the rate of POE.
根据2025年APAO的一项调查,与欧洲和北美相比,重复使用超声乳化术管和盒在亚太国家似乎更为普遍。我们分析了2016年至2024年在Aravind眼科保健系统的15家医院网络中超声乳化术术后眼内炎(POE)的发生率。在这9年期间,在每个设施中,一次性超声乳化盒都被常规地全天重复使用(标签外)。在连续1133959个案例中,POE率为0.01%。这一比率每年都是一致的,并且与同期美国眼科智能研究中心(IRIS)登记的POE数据(0.06%)相比是有利的,后者可能不允许重复使用超声乳化盒。我们没有发现整天重复使用相同的超声乳化管和超声乳化盒会增加POE发生率的证据。
