    (2022-04-23) DERİCİOĞLU, VOLKAN; EKER, NURŞAH; BUĞDAYCI, ONUR; YARGI, BERRU; KURŞUN, MELTEM; SEVİK, MEHMET ORKUN; TOKUÇ, AYŞE GÜLNUR; ŞAHİN, ÖZLEM; Dericioğlu V., Eker N., Buğdayci O., Yargi B., Kurşun M., Sevik M. O. , Tokuç A. G. , Şahin Ö.
    Amaç:Optik gliom nedeniyle takip edilen pediatrik hastaların en iyi düzeltilmiş görme keskinliği (EİDGK, logMAR), flaş görsel uyarılmış potansiyeller (fVEP) ve manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG) sonuçlarının karşılaştırılması.Yöntem:Marmara Üniversitesi Göz Hastalıkları, Pediatrik Onkoloji ve Radyoloji bölümlerince takip edilen 22 pediatrik optik gliom hastasının 38 gözü çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastaların başlangıç ve son takipteki EİDGK’leri, MRG’deki optik sinir kalınlıkları (OSK), kontrast tutulumları, sinyal değişimleri ve fVEP’te P2 dalgasının amplitüd ve latansları değerlendirildi.Bulgular:Hastaların yaş ortalamaları 12±5.7 yıl ve kız/erkek oranı 13/9 idi. Ortalama takip süresi 63.95±24.5 ay olarak bulundu. Gözlerin ilk ve son EİDGK’leri sırasıyla, ortanca (1.ve 3. çeyrekler aralığı) 0.2 (0-2.18) ve 0.2 (0-2.3) logMAR (p=0.586); MRG’de ölçülen ortalama OSK’leri sırasıyla, 6.51±6.03 ve 6.31±7.84 mm (p=0.650); fVEP P2 dalga ortalama amplitüdleri sırasıyla, 16.68±14.21 ve 17.93±11.96 mV (p=0.577) ve ortalama latansları sırasıyla, 149.38±50.30 ve 133.39±29.78 ms (p=0.009) olarak saptandı. Son logMAR EİDGK ile OSK (r=0.434, p=0.015), P2 amplitüdü (r=-0.432, p=0.014)) ve P2 latansı (r=0.614, p<0.001) arasında anlamlı orta düzeyde korelasyon olduğu görüldü. fVEP P2 dalga parametreleri ile OSK arasında korelasyon saptanmadı (p>0.05). P2 latansı ile MRG’de görülen sinyal (r=0.426, p=0.013) ve kontrast tutulumu (r=0.386, p=0.027) değişiklikleri arasında anlamlı korelasyon olduğu görüldü.Sonuç:Optik gliom hastalarında fVEP P2 dalga amplitüdleri ve latansları EİDGK ile ilişkili gözükmektedir. Ayrıca, P2 dalga latansının MRG’de görülen sinyal ve kontast tutulumu değişiklikleri ile de ilişkili olduğu görülmektedir. Bu bulgular, özellikle preverbal yaştaki optik gliom hastalarının değerlendirilmesinde ve hastalık ilerlemesinin takibinde fVEP’in kulanılabileceğini göstermektedir.

    The effect of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions on neovascular AMD patients treated with treat-and-extend protocol
    (SPRINGER, 2021-09) ÖZKAN, GAMZE; Sevik, Mehmet Orkun; Aykut, Aslan; Ozkan, Gamze; Dericioglu, Volkan; Sahin, Ozlem
    Purpose To investigate the adherence rate of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) patients in treat-and-extend (TAE) protocol to their anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) intravitreal injection (IVI) appointments and to evaluate the functional and anatomical outcomes of the patients who attended and did not attend their IVI appointments during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) restriction period (RP). Methods The patients with nAMD having IVI appointments between March 16 and June 1, 2020 (RP in Turkey) were included in this retrospective study. For adherence analysis, the patients who attended (Group 1, n = 44) and who did not attend (Group 2, n = 60) their IVI appointment visits during the RP (V-RP) were evaluated according to their last visit before the RP (V-0). For outcome analysis, the patients who attend V-RP and have follow-up (Group 1a, 46 eyes) and who did not attend V-RP but later attended for follow-up (Group 2a, 33 eyes) were evaluated for functional (best-corrected visual acuity, BCVA [logMAR]) and anatomical (optical coherence tomography [OCT] disease activity) outcomes at the first visit after RP (V-1) and last visit within six months after RP (V-2). Patients received a complete ophthalmologic evaluation with anti-VEGF (Aflibercept) IVI administration at all visits. Results The adherence rate of the patients to V-RP was 42.3% (44/104). The patients in Group 1 were significantly younger (mean +/- SD years, 71.0 +/- 8.1 vs. 74.7 +/- 8.0, p = 0.024), had better median [IQR] BCVA at their first presentation (0.30 [0.54] vs. 0.61 [1.08], p = 0.023) and V-0 (0.40 [0.48] vs. 0.52 [0.70], p = 0.031), and had less hypertension (36.4% vs. 58.3%, p = 0.044) than Group 2. The mean +/- SD delay of planned IVI at V-RP in Group 2a was 13.9 +/- 6.2 weeks. Disease activity in OCT was significantly higher in Group 2a than Group 1a at V-1 (60.6% vs. 32.6%, p = 0.025). In Group 2a, the median (IQR) BCVA was significantly worse at V-1 (0.70 [0.58]) and V-2 (0.70 [0.59]) than V-0 (0.52 [0.40], p = 0.047 and p = 0.035, respectively). Conclusions More than half of the scheduled nAMD patients in TAE protocol missed their IVI visits during the RP, which resulted in a delay of their treatments. The delay of IVI treatment in those patients resulted in an increase in OCT disease activity and a decrease in BCVA.

    A useful method for the practice of pneumatic retinopexy: Slit-lamp laser photocoagulation through the gas bubble
    (2023-05-01) SEVİK, MEHMET ORKUN; KUBAT, BETÜL; DERİCİOĞLU, VOLKAN; ŞAHİN, ÖZLEM; Aykut A., SEVİK M. O., KUBAT B., DERİCİOĞLU V., ŞAHİN Ö.
    This study aimed to demonstrate the laser retinopexy method through the gas bubble under a slit-lamp biomicroscope using a wide-field contact lens to treat rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with pneumatic retinopexy (PR) and report its anatomical and functional results. This single-center, retrospective case series included RRD patients treated with PR using sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). The demographics, preoperative factors, and anatomical and functional outcomes were collected from the patient files. The single-procedure success rate of PR at postoperative 6th months was 70.8% (17/24 eyes), and the final success rate after secondary surgeries was 100%. The BCVA was better in the successful PR eyes at postoperative 3rd (p = 0.011) and 6th month (p = 0.016) than in failed eyes. No single preoperative factor was associated with PR success. The single-procedure success rate of PR using the laser retinopexy method through the gas bubble with a wide-field contact lens system seems comparable to the PR literature.

    Choroidal vascularity index as an activity criterion and a treatment response measure in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy
    (2023-01-01) ŞAHİN, ÖZLEM; SEVİK, MEHMET ORKUN; ÇAM, FURKAN; DERİCİOĞLU, VOLKAN; SEVİK M. O., Aykut A., ÇAM F., DERİCİOĞLU V., ŞAHİN Ö.
    Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the choroidal vascularity index (CVI) as an activity criterion in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and as a measure of treatment response after full-dose-full-fluence photodynamic therapy (fd-ff-PDT). Methods: This fellow-eye-controlled, retrospective cohort study included 23 patients with unilateral chronic CSC treated with fd-ff-PDT (6 mg/m2; 50 μcm2; 83 s). Subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT, μm) and CVI (%) of the affected and fellow eyes at baseline as well as at 1, 3 and 6 months after fd-ff-PDT were compared. Results: The patients\" mean age was 43.4 ± 7.3 years, and 18 (78.3%) were male. CVI was comparable between the affected and fellow eyes at baseline (66.09 ± 1.56 vs. 65.84 ± 1.57, p = 0.59). However, it became significantly lower in the affected eyes 1 (64.45 ± 1.68 vs. 65.87 ± 1.19, p = 0.002), 3 (64.21 ± 2.08 vs. 65.71 ± 1.59, p = 0.009) and 6 (64.47 ± 2.19 vs. 65.62 ± 1.52, p = 0.045) months after fd-ff-PDT. The mean SFCT and the mean CVI were significantly decreased in the affected eyes at all follow-up visits compared with baseline after fd-ff-PDT (p < 0.001). Conclusion: At baseline, CVI was comparable between affected and fellow eyes. Therefore, its use as an activity criterion in chronic CSC patients is questionable. However, it was significantly decreased in fd-ff-PDT-treated eyes, supporting its role as a measure of treatment response in chronic CSC.

    Incidence, Risk Factors and Screening Evaluation of Retinopathy of Prematurity in High Birthweight Infants: A Large Cohort Study in Turkey
    (TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC) ŞAHİN, ÖZLEM; Dericioglu, Volkan; Butur, Sedat; Celiker, Hande; Sahin, Ozlem
    Purpose: To report and evaluate the incidence and risk factors of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and to assess the sensitivity and specificity of Turkish national screening guideline (NSG) in heavier infants with a birth weight (BW) of >1500 g. Methods: The data of 1784 preterm infants with BW>1500 g, who were screened between 2009 and 2016 in a university hospital in Turkey, were analyzed retrospectively. The rates of any stage and severe (treatment-requiring) ROP incidence were investigated. The possible protective and risk factors were evaluated with univariate analyses and logistic regression analysis. Results: The rate of any stage ROP was 14.1% (n = 251). Severe ROP was observed in 11 infants (0.6%), and 2 of the infants (0.1%) had a gestational age (GA)>32 weeks, which fell outside of the NSG. In logistic regression analysis, BW, GA, O-2 therapy duration, and exchange transfusion were determined to be independent risk factors (respectively, p < .001, p < .001, P = .055, and P = .033). Furthermore, antenatal steroid therapy was determined to have a highly significant protective effect on ROP development (p < .001). The sensitivity of Turkish NSG in identifying severe ROP increased from 82% to 100% with the inclusion of risk factors in addition to GA and BW. Conclusion: This study shows the presence of severe ROP in mature and heavy infants in Turkey. The positive effect of antenatal steroid use and the negative impact of exchange transfusion have been demonstrated for ROP development in mature infants. Possible risk factors should be evaluated with GA and BW to avoid missing severe ROP.

    Neurodegeneration in ocular and central nervous systems: optical coherence tomography study in normal-tension glaucoma and Alzheimer disease
    (TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2015) ÇERMAN, EREN; Eraslan, Muhsin; Cerman, Eren; Cekic, Osman; Balci, Sevcan; Dericioglu, Volkan; Sahin, Ozlem; Suer, Devran; Chabou, Biman; Tuncer Elmaci, Emine Nese
    Background/aim: To evaluate, in vivo, the optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex (GCC) in patients with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) and those with Alzheimer disease (AD) in comparison with healthy subjects. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study included 18 patients with NTG, 20 with AD, and 20 control subjects. An ophthalmologic examination and OCT scans of both eyes were performed in all patients. Results: There was a significant reduction in peripapillary RNFL thickness and macular GCC thickness and a significant increase in the global loss volume (GLV) rate in both the NTG and AD patients when compared to the control subjects (P = 0.004, P = 0.006, P < 0.001, respectively). The statistical evaluation showed no difference in any RNFL or GCC parameters between the AD and NTG groups (P > 0.05). There was a negative correlation between disease duration and average RNFL and GCC thicknesses (r = -0.350, P = 0.027 and r = -0.471, P = 0.002, respectively) and a positive correlation between duration and GLV (r = 0.427, P = 0.006) in the AD group. Conclusion: The average RNFL thickness, GCC thickness, and GLV rates may help in the diagnosis of AD as an additional examination and may provide some important clues about the duration of the disease.

    Choroidal vascularity index changes during the Valsalva manoeuvre in healthy volunteers
    (2021) ÇAM, FURKAN; Sevik, Mehmet Orkun; Çam, Furkan; Aykut, Aslan; Dericioğlu, Volkan; Şahin, Özlem
    PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of the Valsalva manoeuvre (VM) on the choroidal vascularity index (CVI) in healthy volunteers. METHODS: This prospective, cross-sectional study included 60 eyes of 30 healthy volunteers. Enhanced depth imaging-optical coherence tomography scans of both eyes involving the fovea were taken, and a 1500 μm subfoveal choroidal area was selected for image binarization with open-access Fiji software. The binarized image was segmented into the stromal area (SA) and luminal area (LA), and CVI was calculated as the ratio (%) of LA to the total choroidal area (TCA). CVI, subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), IOP, systolic and diastolic blood pressure were evaluated at rest and during the VM. RESULTS: During the VM, a mean ± standard deviation increase in LA (0.02 ± 0.05 mm2 , p < 0.001) and CVI (1.72 ± 2.83%, p < 0.001) was observed, whereas SA (-0.02 ± 0.05 mm2 , p < 0.001) decreased. There was no significant change in TCA (0.00 ± 0.03 mm2 , p = 0.55) or SFCT (1.05 ± 10.92 μm, p = 0.46). There was a moderate positive correlation between the spherical equivalent refractive error (SE) and SFCT both at rest and during VM (r58  = 0.49, p < 0.0005 and r58  = 0.49, p < 0.0005, respectively). However, there was no significant correlation between SE and CVI either at rest or during VM (p = 0.11 and 0.06, respectively). In a multiple linear regression analysis, CVI was only associated with SFCT; however, SFCT was also associated with SE, both at rest and during VM (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Valsalva manoeuvre increases CVI by choroidal vascular dilation as demonstrated by an increase in LA and a decrease in SA. Researchers should be careful about unintentional VM during examinations.
