Objective To investigate the characteristics of multifocal electroretinogram (mf-ERG) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) in macular edema (ME) secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO).Methods Mf-ERG and OCT were performed in 38 patients (38 eyes) of ME secondary from RVO patients and 23 normal persons (23 eyes) in the same period of the control group.OCT was used to detect macular retinal thickness (CMT) at foveal area with diameter 1 mm,mf-ERG was used to evaluate the function of macular retina and analyze the amplitude density of P1 wave and latency of P1,N1 wave from ring 1 to ring 5.Results Compared with the control group,the amplitude densities of P1 in BRVO group were obviously decreased in ring 2 (35.95 ± 17.04)nV · deg-2,ring 3(24.72 ±8.32)nV · deg-2,ring 4(19.28 ±6.38)nV ·deg-2,ring 5 (13.49-± 6.16) nV · deg-2,respectively (all P < 0.05);The latencies of P1 were prolonged significantly in ring 2 (35.74-± 3.72) ms (P < 0.05);The latencies of N1 were prolonged significantly in ring 2 (18.43-± 4.63) ms,ring 3 (18.67-± 2.86) ms (both P < 0.05).Compared with the control group,the amplitude densities of P1 in CRVO group were obviously decreased in ring 1 (81.58 ± 43.15) nV · deg-2,ring 2 (33.71 ±9.81) nV · deg-2,ring 3 (22.15 ± 9.75) nV · deg-2,ring 4 (16.65-± 6.38) nV · deg-2,ring 5 (14.18-± 4.59) nV · deg-2,respectively (all P < 0.05);The latencies of P1 were prolonged significantly in ring 2 (37.56 ± 5.55) ms,ring 3 (37.31 ± 5.22) ms,ring 4 (35.71 ±5.63) ms,ring 5 (37.30 ± 5.37) ms (all P < 0.05);The latencies of N1 were prolonged significantly in ring 1 (21.82 ±5.76) ms,ring 2(19.18 ±4.82) ms,ring3 (19.31 ±4.25)ms,ring 4 (19.05 ± 4.55) ms,ring 5 (19.43 ± 4.12) ms (all P < 0.05).There was negative correlation between CMT and amplitude densities of P1 of ring 1 in CRVO group (r =-0.576,P < 0.05).Conclusion OCT combined with mf-ERG can comprehensively reflect the change of retinal fumction and structure in ME secondary to RVO.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of half-dose verteporfin and half-fluence photodynamic therapy in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC).Methods The medical records of 42 patients (42 eyes) with chronic CSC were retrospectively reviewed.According to the difference of drug dose and laser parameters in the course of PDT,the patients were divided into two groups:half-dose group and half-fluence group.Half-dose group:22 patients (22 eyes) received half-dose verteporfin(3 mg· m-2)and standard PDT(83 s,50 J · cm-2).Half-fluence group:20 patients (20 eyes) received full-dose verteporfin (6 mg · m-2) and half-fluence PDT (42 s,25 J · cm-2).Patients were followed up at 1 month,3 months,6 months after PDT.The outcome measures was the proportion of eyes with complete resolution of subretinal fluid(SRF),the changes in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness(CMT).Results At 6 months after PDT,22 eyes(100%) that received half-dose PDT showed complete resolution of SRF,19 eyes(95%)that received half-fulence PDT showed complete resolution of SRF.There was no statistical difference between two groups (P > 0.05).At 6 months after PDT,the mean BCVA improved 7.2 letters in half-dose group and 6.7 letters in half-fluence group.There was no statistical difference compared with the improvement of BCVA between two groups(P > 0.05).In half-dose group,mean baseline central retinal thickness was (351 ± 90) μm,which was decreased to (178 ±55) μm after 6 months,respectively (P < 0.05).In half-fluence group,mean baseline central retinal thickness was (322 ± 96) μm,which was decreased to (181 ± 47) μm after 6 months,respectively (P < 0.05).None of the patients developed retinal pigment epithelium atrophy and CNV.Conclusion Half-dose verteporfm PDT and half-fluence PDT are effective and safe in the treatment of chronic CSC.

The clinical application of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has significantly improved the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. With the widespread applica-tion of ICIs in HCC, the management of immune-related adverse events (irAE) gained more and more attention. However, the complicated disease characteristics and various combination therapies in HCC throw out challenges to irAE management. Therefore, the editorial board of the 'Chinese expert consensus on the management of immune-related adverse events of hepatocellular carcinoma treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (2021 edition)' organizes multidisciplinary experts to discuss and formulate this consensus. The consensus focuses on issues related to HCC irAE manage-ment, and puts forward suggestions, in order to improve standardized and safety clinical medication, so as to maximize the benefits of immunotherapy for patients.
