Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial es to learn about the short term effects of intravitreal dexamethasone implant (IDI) in patients with refractory diabetic macular edema. The main question it aims to answer is: How fast does the diminishing in central retinal thickness has statistical significance after IDI in patients with refractory diabetic macular edema? Patients will be evaluated by OCT before and after the implant.
Diabetic macular edema (DME) is the main cause of vision loss in patients with diabetes. At present, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) intravitreal injection is the first-line therapy for DME, nevertheless, some patients do not respond well to anti-VEGF agents and often require multiple injections, which increases the psychological and economic burden of patients. Microinvasive pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) has been proven to be safe and effective for refractory DME. However, there are few studies on treatment-naïve DME. The purpose of this study is to explore whether early PPV combined with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling can reduce the treatment burden of DME patients, prevent vision loss, and maintain long-term stabilization of diabetic retinopathy.
Physical appearance is a factor that contributes to an individual's self-esteem. Maintaining a healthy appearance is a growing quest by the population, and aging is the main cause of discomfort for men and women. There are several aesthetic treatments capable of mitigating or delaying the effects of aging in all its layers of alteration (dermis, hypodermis, musculature and bone), and the combination of therapies has been increasingly proposed in search of a positive synergy. The dermal application of polydioxanone threads (PDO) and the low-power red LED (photobiomodulation - PBM) are individual options of resources for which there already are reports in the literature about their mechanisms of action in the proliferation of fibroblasts and collagen production. However, the joint application of these techniques requires further studies. A total of 40 patients, aged between 30 and 60 years old, phototypes I-IV in Fitzpatrick scale, Glogau 3-4, presenting static wrinkle at the glabellar region will be recruited and distributed among 2 groups: PDO thread + PBM or PDO thread + sham PBM. The treatments will consist of 30 days, with one application of PDO thread and PBM twice a week (total of 9 sessions).
Prospective or cohort study to compare the effects of grid macular laser, topical bromfenac 0.09% and placebo (carboxymethyl cellulose 0.5%) medication in diabetic macular edema. 60 eyes with macular edema of two types i.e. cystoid macular edema (CME) and clinically significant macular edema (CSME) were divided into three groups with 20 patients in each group. One group was treated with grid laser photocoagulation, the second group was treated with topical bromfenac 0.09% drops two times a day and the third group was treated with topical carboxy methyl cellulose 0.5% three times a day (placebo treatment).
The objective of this trial is to assess the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of RZ402 in patients with Diabetic Macular Edema.
This study is designed to assess the safety and initial evidence of efficacy of the novel compound SOM-401 (K8), a derivative of a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, in subjects with untreated, clinically significant, diabetic macular edema (DME).
To determine safety, pharmacokinetics, and duration of effect of periocularly administered AIV007 gel suspension in subjects with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) or diabetic macular edema (DME).
The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare safety, tolerability, efficacy, and durability of two dose levels of suprachoroidal sustained-release OXU-001 (dexamethasone microspheres; DEXAspheres®) using the Oxulumis® illuminated microcatheterization device compared with intravitreal dexamethasone implant (OZURDEX®) in subjects with diabetic macular edema.
To investigate whether the addition of Fibralign's BioBridge® Collagen Matrix (BioBridge) devices to the standard surgery for vascularized lymph node transfer will improve the outcome of surgical treatment in lymphedema of the upper arm.
ADMIRE was a prospective, observational cohort study of patients with diabetic macular edema (DME). Efficacy was assessed by change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness (CRT) from baseline to months 12, 24 and 36 after treatment with intravitreal aflibercept in treatment-naïve patients and previously treated patients. Safety was evaluated by recording any patients-reported events.
