Macular thickness as a predictor of loss of visual sensitivity in ethambutol-induced optic neuropathy

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2016
Ethambutol is a common cause of drug-related optic neuropathy. Prediction of the onset of ethambutol-induced optic neuropathy and consequent drug withdrawal may be an effective method to stop visual loss.

Risk of Non‐Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy in Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Patients Treated with GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) have demonstrated significant weight‐reducing effects and may offer benefits in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH); however, recent concerns about the risk of non‐arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) have emerged.

Clinical Characteristics of Methanol-Induced Optic Neuropathy: Correlation between Aetiology and Clinical Findings

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Purpose. To show the clinical characteristics, identify the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) features, and observe the visual outcome of methanol-induced optic neuropathy. Methods. Clinical data were retrospectively

Compound Heterozygote Friedreich Ataxia Patients With Covert Proximal FXN Gene Deletions

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present Friedreich ataxia patients with frataxin gene deletions. Data and records were collected at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia from patients enrolled in the FACOMS natural history study. Patients with proximal deletions initially diagnosed with only one GAA expanded allele had more severe disease than their homozygous expansion

Hyperhomocysteinemia in bilateral anterior ischemic optic neuropathy after conventional coronary artery bypass graft: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2018
Background The incidence of anterior ischemic optic neuropathy after coronary artery bypass graft procedures ranges from 1.3 to 0.25%. The mechanisms of anterior ischemic optic neuropathy after cardiovascular procedures remain undefined but many systemic

Sertraline Treatment Can Mimic Niemann‐Pick Type C Biomarker Profile: A Diagnostic Pitfall

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oxysterols (cholestane‐3β,5α,6β‐triol and 7‐ketocholesterol) and N‐palmitoyl‐O‐phosphocholineserine (PPCS) are sensitive biomarkers for Niemann‐Pick disease type C (NPC) screening. However, false‐positive results occur, with a biomarker profile suggestive of NPC despite the absence of pathogenic variants in genes involved in NPC or ...

Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy in a patient with papilledema from idiopathic intracranial hypertension

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2020
Patients may lose vision in idiopathic intracranial hypertension from worsening papilledema and optic nerve dysfunction. Acute vision loss may also occur in this context from anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.

Neuroprotection in Optic Neuropathy

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology, 2019
Almost all optic neuropathies are untreatable, motivating the search for new therapies that address the final common pathway of optic nerve disease, retinal ganglion cell loss. These neuroprotective strategies have been primarily studied in glaucoma, the most common optic neuropathy, but increasing also tested at the laboratory and animal model level ...
