Abstract in Portuguese
Objetivo: Avaliar os efeitos da panfotocoagulação a laser (PRP) comparando com a PRP associada com injeção de 0,5 mg de ranibizumabe intravítreo (IVR) em pacientes com retinopatia diabética proliferativa (RDP) com características de alto risco. Métodos: Estudo prospectivo incluindo pacientes portadores de RDP de alto risco sem tratamento prévio, distribuídos aleatoriamente em dois grupos: grupo PRP e grupo PRPplus. Avaliações oftalmológicas padronizadas, incluindo melhor acuidade visual corrigida (MAVC), de acordo com o Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS), medidas da área de vazamento de fluoresceína na angiofluoresceinografia (FLA), medida da espessura do subcampo macular (ESM) na Tomografia de Coerência Óptica (OCT) foram realizadas na visita inicial e nas semanas 16 (±2), 32 (±2) e 48 (±2), além de eletrorretinograma (ERG) de campo total, realizado na visita inicial e na semana 48 (±2). Resultados: Vinte e nove de 40 pacientes (n=29) completaram as 48 semanas do estudo. Na visita inicial, a média ± erro-padrão da média (EPM) de FLA (mm2) foi de 9,0 ± 1,3 e 11,7 ± 1,3 (p=0,1502); MAVC (logMAR), 0,31 ± 0,05 e 0,27 ± 0,06 (p=0,6645) e ESM (µm), 216,3 ± 10,7 e 249,4 ± 36,1 (p=0,3925), nos grupos PRP e PRPplus, respectivamente. Foi notada significativa (p<0,05) redução na FLA em todas as visitas do estudo em ambos os grupos; porém significativamente maior no grupo PRPplus, em relação ao grupo PRP, no final da visita 48 (PRP = 2.9 ± 1.3 mm2; PRPplus = 5.8 ± 1.3 mm2; p = 0.0291). Observou-se piora na MAVC em todas as visitas após o tratamento no grupo PRP (p<0,05), enquanto que no grupo PRPplus não foram encontradas mudanças na MAVC. Aumento significativo na ESM foi observado em todas as avaliações do estudo no grupo PRP e significativa diminuição na ESM foi detectada na semana 16 do grupo PRPplus, e não foi encontrada diferença significativa, em relação à visita inicial, nas semanas 32 e 48. Quanto ao ERG, foi notada significativa diminuição na amplitude da onda-b dos bastonetes para 46 ± 5% (p<0,05) do valor da visita inicial no grupo PRP e para 64 ± 6% no grupo PRPplus. Essa regressão foi significativamente maior no grupo PRP do que no grupo PRPplus (p=0,024). Resultados similares foram observados para resposta máxima combinada (MC) da amplitude da onda-b, com redução na semana 48, comparada com a visita inicial, de 45 ± 4% no grupo PRP e 62 ± 5% no grupo PRPplus. A diminuição deste parâmetro foi significativamente maior no grupo PRP do que no grupo PRPplus (p=0,0094). A MC da amplitude da onda-a, os potenciais oscilatórios (PO) e a resposta ao flicker de 30 Hz mostraram redução estatisticamente significativa na análise intragrupos, mas sem diferenças na análise entre os grupos. Conclusão: Após a PRP foi associado IVR com maior redução na FLA na semana 48, comparado com PRP isoladamente, em olhos com RDP de alto risco, sendo que o uso adicional de IVR à PRP parece proteger contra discreta perda de acuidade visual e espessamento macular observado em olhos tratados com PRP isoladamente. Na análise do ERG, resultados sugerem que o tratamento de RDP de alto risco com PRP associado com IVR é efetivo para o controle da RDP e permite menor uso do laser, que, consequentemente, leva à perda funcional menor da retina do que o tratamento com PRP isoladamente.

Abstract in English
Objective: To evaluate the effects of panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) compared with PRP plus intravitreal injection of 0.5 mg of ranibizumab (IVR) in patients with high-risk proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Methods: Prospective study included patients with high-risk PDR and no prior laser treatment randomly assigned to receive PRP (PRP group) or PRP plus IVR (PRPplus group). Standardized ophthalmic evaluations including best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measured according to the methods used in the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS), fluorescein angiography to measure area of fluorescein leakage (FLA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) for the assessment of central subfield macular thickness (CSMT), were performed at baseline and at weeks 16 (±2), 32 (±2) and 48 (±2). Eletroretinographic (ERG) was measured according to ISCEV standards at baseline and at week 48 (±2). Results: Twenty-nine of 40 patients (n = 29 eyes) completed the 48-week study follow-up period. At baseline, mean ± SE FLA (mm2) was 9.0 ± 1.3 and 11.7 ± 1.3 (p = 0.1502); BCVA (logMAR) was 0.31 ± 0.05 and 0.27 ± 0.06 (p = 0.6645); and CSMT (µm) was 216.3 ± 10.7 and 249.4 ± 36.1 (p = 0.3925), in the PRP and PRPplus groups, respectively. There was a significant (p < 0.05) FLA reduction at all study visits in both groups, with the reduction observed in the PRPplus group significantly larger than that in the PRP group at week 48 (PRP = 2.9 ± 1.3 mm2; PRPplus = 5.8 ± 1.3 mm2; p = 0.0291). Best-corrected visual acuity worsening was observed at 16, 32 and 48 weeks after treatment in the PRP group (p < 0.05), while no significant BCVA changes were observed in the PRPplus group. A significant CSMT increase was observed in the PRP group at all study visits, while a significant decrease in CSMT was observed in the PRPplus group at week 16, and no significant difference in CSMT from base- line was observed at weeks 32 and 48. ROD b-wave amplitude was significantly reduced to 46 ± 5 % (p<0.05) of baseline in the PRP group and 64±6% (p<0.05) in the PRPplus group. This reduction was significantly larger in the PRP group than in the PRPplus group (p=0.024). Similar results were observed for the dark-adapted Combined Response (CR) b-wave amplitude, with a reduction at 48 weeks compared to baseline of 45 ± 4 % in the PRP group and 62 ± 5 % in the PRPplus group; the reduction in CR b-wave amplitude was significantly larger in the PRP group than in the PRPplus group (p=0.0094). CR a-wave, oscillatory potentials, cone single flash, and 30 Hz flicker responses showed statistically significant within-group reductions, but no differences in between-group analyses. Conclusions: Intravitreal ranibizumab after PRP was associated with a larger reduction in FLA at week 48 compared with PRP alone in eyes with high-risk PDR, and the adjunctive use of IVR appears to protect against the modest visual acuity loss and macular swelling observed in eyes treated with PRP alone. In ERG analyses, the results suggest that treating high-risk PDR with PRP plus IVR is effective for PDR control, and permits the use of less extensive PRP which, in turn, induces less retinal functional loss, than treatment with PRP alone.
