Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal lucentis or conbercept injection combined with ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV)implantation on the treatment of neovascular glaucoma (NVG).Methods:A total of 68 NVG patients (68 eyes)were divided into three groups according to the pretreatment (the intravitreal injection of lucentis or conbercept or no intravitreal injection 3 - 7 d before AGV implantation):lucentis group (n = 26, given intravitreal injection of 10 g · L-1 lucentis),conbercept group (n = 21, given intravitreal injection of 10 g·L-1 conbercept)and control group (n=21,given medicine or puncture of anterior chamber to smoothen the IOP and received AGV implantation).The panretina photocoagnlation (PRP)was performed in the patients with clear ocular media before intravitreal injection or AGV implantation.For the patients with cloudy ocular media,the intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs was performed first and the PRP was performed when fundus could be seen.Results:Compared with before operation,the mean IOP and the number of antiglaucoma medications of the patients used in three groups after operation were significantly decreased (P < 0.01).There were no significant differences in the successful rates of operation of the patients in three groups at different time points after operation (P >0.05).1 month and 3 months after operation,the BCVA of the patients in lucentis and conbercept groups was significantly better than that in control group (P <0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of complications of the pateints between lucentis and conbercept groups at different time points after operation (P >0.05).Conclusion:Intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs combined with AGV implantation is effective and safe in the treatment of NVG.In short term,it can improve the vision,relieve the pain and reduce the complications.

Objective To investigate the difference in behavioral and psychological symptoms among Al-zheimer's disease(AD)patients with different severity of white matter hyperintensity(WMH). Methods A total of 37 AD patients were enrolled and were followed-up for 4 weeks. They were checked by 3.0 T MRI at baseline, including T1,T2-weighted phase and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery sequence(FLAIR phase).The image pro-fessionals analyzed the images and process data.The Fazekas scale was used for WMH rating.Assessment tools in-cluded the Neuropsychiatric Inventory(NPI)、MMSE and ADAS-cog. Results There were 14 patients in none-mild WMH group and 23 patients in moderate-severe WMH group. The age of two groups were 71.3 ± 12.5 and 78.7 ± 6.1 years old respectively(P<0.05).The comparison of NPI,MMSE and ADAS-cog assessment results be-tween two groups show that there is significance difference in NPI baseline scoring and 4-week scoring.The score in moderate-severe group w is higher than that in the none-mild group(P < 0.05). However,the changed value of baseline-4-week NPI is not statistically significant. There is no significant difference between MMSE and ADAS -cog score and changed value.Conclusion Taken together,the severity of WMH may be related to behavioral and psychological symptoms of patients with Alzheimer's disease.
