La sensibilidad foveal en el edema macular diabético con agudeza visual 20/20 es menor en ojos con edema macular clínicamente significativo sin engrosamiento del centro de la mácula y agudeza visual 20/20. Determinar el valor pronóstico de esta disfunción requiere una evaluación adicional para identificar si se necesita tratamiento temprano en esto...

En pacientes con edema macular diabético se presentan diferentes patrones fenotípicos de autofluorescencia retiniana con los sistemas de cámara de flash. Una clasificación fenotípica más precisa pudiera ayudar a establecer factores pronósticos de pérdida visual o al diseño de ensayos clínicos relativos a edema macular diabético.

To determine the efficacy of switching to ranibizumab in patients with diabetic macular oedema refractory to treatment with bevacizumab, and to evaluate the outcomes when switching back to bevacizumab. A prospective study was conducted that included 43 eyes of 31 patients refractory to previous bevacizumab treatment. The patients were switched to r...

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an essential role in development of diabetic macular edema (DME). While there is evidence suggesting that silymarin, a flavonoid extracted from Silybum marianum, could be useful for prevention and treatment of diabetic nephropathy, no studies have been conducted in diabetic retinopathy (DR). The aim o...

Objetivo: Comparar la efectividad de ranibizumab intravítreo (RIV) para el tratamiento del edema macular diabético (EMD) en ojos con y sin vitrectomía previa. Procedimientos: Evaluamos de manera prospectiva la mejor agudeza visual corregida (MAVC) y el grosor macular central (GMC) tras el tratamiento con RIV durante 6 meses. Resultados: No se obser...

To compare subfoveal choroidal thickness (GCSF) in patients with diabetic macular oedema (DMO) and healthy subjects using swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). Cross-sectional study including 50 eyes of 36 patients with DMO, and 47 eyes of 34 patients as a control group. GCSF was measured in both groups, analysing between the eyes wit...

Macular oedema is a form of diabetic retinopathy that can be treated with photocoagulation. The expected effect of treatment varies, and may depend on the previous characteristics of retinal thickening. To determine whether the change in retinal thickness after focal photocoagulation for diabetic macular oedema varies due to the presence of anatomi...

There was no statistical difference in the proportion of eyes with visual improvement between patients treated with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and in those where they were not used. There is no support for the inhibition of angiotensin II in addition to photocoagulation for improving the outcome in patients with diabetic macular oedem...

Retinal thickening and visual acuity improved or did not change in 71.3% of eyes with diabetic macular oedema with a single photocoagulation procedure. Retinal variables that are usually evaluated were unable to identify the remaining 28.7%, which could lose vision after that treatment, and would require additional interventions.
