Study design: Retrospective cohort study. Methods: The cohort included 3178 patients with primary RD registered in the Japan Retinal Detachment Registry between February 2016 and March 2017. Surgery data were divided into holiday and workday groups. A descriptive analysis of primary RD characteristics was performed, and the outcomes for each surgical intervention were assessed. The primary outcome was anatomical failure at 6 months post-surgery classified as follows: level 1, inoperable state; level 2, anatomical recovery with silicone-oil use; and level 3, additional surgery required for RD repair. Results: The holiday group comprised 108 and the workday, 3070 cases of primary RD. Compared with those in the workday group, surgery in the holiday group took longer (PPV, P < 0.0001; SB, P = 0.047) and was performed by less experienced surgeons (P = 0.014). However, there were no statistically significant differences in surgical failure 6 months post-surgery between the workday and holiday groups. Conclusion: Although surgery conducted on holidays and workdays was not significantly different in terms of outcome, some surgery should be postponed with proper preoperative interim measures to limit RD progress until it can be conducted on workdays by a well-prepared team.

This study was a retrospective observational multicenter study. All patients were registered with the Japan-Retinal Detachment Registry. We analyzed 1887 eyes with RRD that had undergone vitrectomy and were observed for 6 months between February 2016 and March 2017. We compared the baseline characteristics and postoperative outcomes between eyes with and without drainage retinectomy. We then performed propensity score matching using preoperative findings as covariates to adjust for relevant confounders. Of 3446 eyes, 1887 met the inclusion criteria. Among them, 559 eyes underwent vitrectomy with drainage retinotomy, and 1328 eyes underwent vitrectomy without drainage retinotomy. After propensity score matching, each group comprised 544 eyes. There was no significant difference between the two groups in BCVA at 6 months after vitrectomy (0.181 vs. 0.166, P = 0.23), the primary anatomical success rate (6.3% vs. 4.4%, P = 0.22), or the rate of secondary surgery for ERM within 6 months (1.5% vs. 1.3%, P = 1.0). Drainage retinectomy does not increase the risk of decreased postoperative BCVA, surgical failure, or secondary surgery for ERM within six months outcomes. DOI： 10.1038/s41598-024-58453-5 Scopus

The purpose of this study was to determine whether regional and sex differences exist in the treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD). We used Japan-RD Registry database of 2523 patients aged ≥ 40 years between February 2016 and March 2017 in 5 Japanese regions. Regional differences of patients’ perioperative factors were analyzed. The factors affecting the proportion of patients who underwent surgery within one week of the onset, defined as early-surgery, were examined by logistic regression. We observed regional differences in perioperative factors, especially in the use of phacovitrectomy, general anesthesia, and air-tamponade, which was higher in certain regions. (Fisher’s exact test, all P = 0.012) The proportion of early-surgery was significantly higher among men in Kyushu region (Odds ratio (OR) 1.83; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.08–3.12; P = 0.02), and it was also significantly higher after adjusting for covariates (OR 1.89; 95% CI 1.06–3.42; P = 0.02). Regional and sex differences exist in the treatment of RD in Japan. Although there was no significant differences in the anatomical outcomes, women in certain regions of Japan are less likely to receive early surgical intervention for RD.

Longitudinal changes of funduscopic optic disc size, color and cup-to-disc ratio in school children1994 · 担当区分： 筆頭著者 記述言語： 英語 掲載種別： 研究論文（学術雑誌） 出版者・発行元： International Journal of Retina and Vitreous Background: To investigate the relationship between changes in the optic disc size and color, cup-to-disc (C/D) ratio, and axial elongation in schoolchildren. Methods: A prospective cohort study was performed in 75 right eyes of elementary school students for six years (from 8.5 to 14.5 years old). In the first and last year, all participants underwent optical axial length measurement and color fundus photography. The optic disc color was calculated by dividing the intensity of red by the sum of the intensity of red, green, and blue. The optic disc area was calculated by modifying the number of pixels according to Bennett’s formula. The C/D ratio was calculated by dividing the vertical cup diameter by vertical optic disc diameter. Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to compare these optic disc parameters and axial length in the first and last year. Results: Mean axial length in the last year (24.82 mm) was significantly longer than that in the first year (23.34 mm). Likewise, the mean optic disc size was significantly smaller in the last year (41,946 pixels) than that in the first year (46,144 pixels). The mean optic disc color in the last year (0.49) was significantly more reddish than that in the first year (0.46), while the mean C/D ratio in last year (0.50) was significantly smaller than that in first year (0.52). Conclusions: During the period from 8.5 years to 14.5 years of age, both the optic disc size and C/D ratio became smaller, while the color became more red.
