Background Researches determined that the pathogenesis of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is associated with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in Caucasian population.However,the relationship between RVO and POAG in Asian population is unclear.Objective This study was to survey the percentage of POAG in RVO patients in China.Methods A prospective cross-sectional observational study based on hospital was performed.Three hundred and seventy five patients with newly diagnosed RVO by fluorescein fundus angiography (FFA) were consecutively enrolled in Peking University Third Hospital from October 2011 to May 2013,and gonioscopy was carried out in all the patients.Glaucoma was diagnosed according to the criteria of the International Society of Geographical and Epidemiological Ophthalmology (ISGEO).RVO was classified into central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO),hemicentral retinal vein occlusion (HRVO) and branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) based on fundus photograph and FFA,or classified into arteriovenous crossing RVO (AV-RVO),optic cup RVO (OC-RVO),optic nerve RVO without optical nerve head swelling (NONHS-RVO) and RVO with optical nerve head swelling (ONHS-RVO) based on the sites of venous occlusion.The percentages of POAG in different types of RVO were calculated.This study was approved by Ethic Committee of Peking University Third Hospital,and written informed consent was obtained from each patient before entering study cohort.Results Three hundred and seventeen RVO patients finished screening of glaucoma,with the response rate 84.5%.The percentage of POAG is 8.2% in RVO patients,including 7.1% in the CRVO patients,23.5% in HRVO patients and 6.2% in BRVO patients.The percentage of POAG was significantly higher in OC-RVO patients (27.9%) and NONHS-RVO patients (13.2%) than that in AV-RVO patients (4.7%) and ONHS-RVO patients (1.3%) (all at P<0.05).Conclusions The overall percentage of POAG in RVO patients in China is 3-4 times higher than general population.Higher percentage of POAG is found in OC-RVO patients and NONHS-RVO patients,suggesting that pathogenesis of RVO is probably associated with the glaucomatous anatomic changes of optical nerve head.

Objective:To investigate the incidence and risk factors of neonatal asphyxia in twin pregnancy.Methods:This study retrospectively recruited 2 035 women with twin pregnancy and their 4 070 twin neonates in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University from January 2010 to December 2018. There were 211 cases suffered from neonatal asphyxia (asphyxia group) and 3 859 did not (non-asphyxia group). The demographic information of the women and their newborns and the incidence of perinatal complications were compared between the two groups by two independent samples t-test and Chi-square test. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of neonatal asphyxia in twin pregnancy. Results:The age of 2 035 women was (31.8±4.4) years old (17-52 years old). The gestational age of the twins at delivery was (35.2±2.2) weeks (25-40 weeks). There were 1 330 (65.4%) premature births, including 997 (49.0%) born at ≥34 weeks. Monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies accounted for 22.6% (460/2 035). The total incidence of neonatal asphyxia was 5.2% (211/4 070), 5.0% (102/2 035) in the first- and 5.4% (109/2 035) in the second-born twin infants, and the three figures were all decreased with the increase of gestational age ( χ2trend=1 601.965, 549.693 and 1 089.709, all P<0.001) as well as birth weight ( χ2trend=1 273.386, 437.906 and 848.007, all P<0.001). Univariate analysis showed that the asphyxia group had smaller gestational age and lower birth weight [(34.1±2.8) vs (35.3±2.1) weeks, t=6.279; (2 113.3±565.7) vs (2 339.6±478.7) g, t=5.700], but a higher ratio of male infants [58.3% (123/211) vs 48.5% (1 878/3 859), χ2=7.704], vaginal delivery [10.4% (22/211) vs 4.5% (173/3 859), χ2=15.493], monochorionic diamniotic twins [27.5% (58/211) vs 22.3% (862/3 859), χ2=7.714], special complications related to monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies [8.1% (17/211) vs 2.5% (95/3 859), χ2=23.403] and fetal distress [13.7% (29/211) vs 3.8% (148/3 859), χ2=47.222] than the non-asphyxia group (all P<0.05). After adjusting for the gestational age, birth weight and gender, multivariate logistic regression found that vaginal delivery ( OR=1.748, 95% CI: 1.069-2.861), special complications related to monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies ( OR=3.200, 95% CI: 2.056-4.982) and fetal distress ( OR=2.017, 95% CI: 1.073-3.791) were the risk factors for asphyxia in twin neonates (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of neonatal asphyxia is high in twins with small gestational age and low birth weight. Vaginal delivery, fetal distress and special complications related to monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies are the high-risk factors. Clinicians should be well prepared for resuscitation when encountering neonatal asphyxia.
