英文摘要

This study aimed to investigate the risk of ocular adverse events following COVID-19 mRNA vaccine administration. Researchers employed two study designs: matched cohort and self-controlled case series (SCCS) studies. Individuals who received the COVID-19 vaccine (BNT162b2) from February 2021 to September 2021 were included. The study analyzed individuals who developed ocular adverse events. The findings revealed no significant increase in the risk of uveitis, scleritis, retinal vein occlusion (RVO), or optic neuritis after vaccination.

However, there were some limitations, such as the inability to obtain detailed information about the eyes and potential unmeasured confounders in the matched cohort study. Despite these limitations, this research provides important insights into the association between COVID-19 vaccines and ocular adverse events.

中文摘要

本研究旨在調查2019冠狀病毒病(COVID-19) mRNA疫苗接種後眼科不良反應的風險。研究人員使用了兩種研究設計:配對隊列Matched cohort研究和自控病例序列self-controlled case series研究。從2021年2月至2021年9月接種COVID-19疫苗(BNT162b2)的個體被納入研究。研究人員分析了發生眼科不良反應的個體。研究發現疫苗接種後,葡萄膜炎、鞏膜炎、視網膜靜脈阻塞(RVO)和視神經炎的風險並無顯著增加。

然而,研究存在一些限制,如無法獲得眼睛的詳細信息,配對隊列研究中可能存在未測量的混淆因素等。儘管如此,這項研究為了解COVID-19疫苗與眼科不良事件之間的關聯提供了重要信息。

英文摘要

This case series describes four patients with novel benign intraretinal tumors of the inner nuclear layer (INL), which have not been previously reported. These patients underwent ophthalmic examinations, fundus photography, fluorescein angiography, OCT, OCT angiography, and whole exome sequencing. Two of the patients also had separate CHRPE lesions. The authors propose the term “benign lobular inner nuclear layer proliferation” for these lesions. The tumors were discovered incidentally in children or young adults and appeared as smooth, white-opaque masses on examination. OCT revealed homogeneous, hyperreflective lesions within the INL. No significant changes were observed during follow-up, suggesting a benign nature. The study also reports a possible predisposition to the development of both INL tumors and CHRPE lesions in some patients. Further research is needed to better understand the features, natural history, and potential associations of these novel tumors.

中文摘要

本病例系列描述了四名患有新型良性視網膜內核層(INL)腫瘤的患者,這些腫瘤以前從未被報導過。這些患者接受了眼科檢查、眼底攝影、螢光素眼底血管造影、OCT、OCT血管造影和全外顯子定序。結論: 我們描述了一種新型良性INL腫瘤,其中兩名患者與單獨的CHRPE病變相關。我們提出“良性分葉狀內核層增生”這個術語來描述這些病變。此類視網膜腫瘤源於神經感覺視網膜的固有細胞類型,罕見且與預後和全身關聯有不同的意義。

在本病例系列中,我們報告了4名患有良性視網膜內腫瘤的患者的臨床和影像學表現。其中兩名患者還表現出與CHRPE病變相關的特徵。OCT血管造影顯示病變為無血管,並且隨訪兩年內未觀察到病變變化。綜合以上資訊,我們認為這是一種未曾描述過的視網膜腫瘤類型。然而,進一步的研究和更多患者的數據仍然有助於進一步了解這些病變的特徵、自然史和潛在關聯。

在這個病例系列中,所有患者均為兒童或年輕人,腫瘤在眼底檢查中意外發現。較大的病變呈光滑的白色不透明質地,由多個小叶連接成弧形。如果這些單獨的病變是獨立形成的,那麼這可能意味著這些患者容易形成這些病變。這可能表明存在一種潛在的疾病,使患者容易患上兩種不同類型的後段病變。

在已知的視網膜內腫瘤中,良性分葉狀內核層增生具有特殊性,因為它們完全位於INL內。此外,其他已知視網膜內腫瘤的OCT特徵也已經描述得很詳細。在這些病例中,我們報告了從未在人類中描述過的具有此類細胞類型的腫瘤。

值得注意的是,病例2的患者有顱縫早閉導致斜頭症的病史,並在6個月大時接受手術治療。然而,根據目前的研究和數據,尚無法確定這些腫瘤是否與特定的基因變異或全身疾病有關。在隨後的研究中,需要更多的患者數據來確定這些腫瘤的特徵、自然史以及潛在的全身關聯。

總之,本病例系列報告了4名患有視網膜內核層良性腫瘤的患者,這些腫瘤與以前描述的腫瘤類型有所不同。雖然目前的研究和患者數據有限,但這些發現為未來進一步研究和了解這種新型視網膜腫瘤提供了基礎。

英文摘要

This study compared the efficacy of a novel binocular eye-tracking-based home treatment with traditional patching treatment in improving visual acuity in children with amblyopia. A total of 103 children aged 4 to 9 years with anisometropic, small-angle strabismic, or mixed amblyopia participated in the trial. The results demonstrated that the novel binocular treatment and conventional patching treatment had similar effects on visual acuity improvement after 16 weeks. Additionally, significant improvements in stereopsis and binocular visual acuity were observed in the binocular treatment group, despite a treatment duration twice as short as that of the patching group. No potential risks, such as diplopia, eye strain, and seizures, were observed in the binocular treatment group.

中文摘要

本研究比較了一種新型的雙目眼動追踪為基礎的家庭治療與傳統貼片治療在改善弱視兒童視力方面的成效。103名4至9歲患有不等視性、小角度斜視或混合性弱視的兒童參加了試驗。研究結果顯示,新型雙目治療與傳統貼片治療在16周後的視力改善方面具有相似的效果。此外,雙目治療組在立體視和雙眼視力方面也顯著改善,儘管治療時間是貼片組的兩倍短。雙目治療組未出現譬如雙視、眼部疲勞和癲癇發作等潛在風險。
