    A comparative study of visual outcome in patients with optic neuritis treated with five or seven days of intravenous corticosteroid treatment
    (2023) SILVA, Guilherme Diogo; TERRIM, Sara; FALCAO, Fernando Cavalcantide Sa e Benevides; FALCA, Maria Alice Pimentel; CHAVES, Cleuber Esteves; APOSTOLOS-PEREIRA, Samira; FORTINI, Ida; GONCALVES, Marcia Rubia Rodrigues; COMERLATTI, Luiz Roberto; CASTRO, Luiz Henrique Martins; CALLEGARO, Dagoberto; MONTEIRO, Mario Luiz Ribeiro
    Background: Optic neuritis (ON), a major cause of visual impairment in young adults, is generally associated with rapid visual recovery when treated with intravenous methylprednisolone treatment (IVMPT). However, the optimal duration of such treatment is unknown, ranging from three to seven days in clinical practice. We aimed to compare the visual recovery in patients treated with 5-day or 7-day duration IVMPT.Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients with ON in Sa similar to o Paulo, Brazil, from 2016 to 2021. We compared the proportion of participants with visual impairment in 5-day and 7-day treatment schedules at discharge, at 1 month and between 6 and 12 months after the diagnosis of ON. The findings were adjusted to age, severity of the visual impairment, co-intervention with plasma exchange, time from symptom onset to IVMPT and the etiology of the ON to mitigate indication bias.Results: We included 73 patients with ON treated with 5 or 7-day duration of 1 g/d intravenous methylprednisolone therapy. Visual impairment at 6-12 months in the 5-day or the 7-day treatment groups was similar (57% x 59%, p > 0.9, Odds Ratio 1.03 [95% CI 0.59-1.84]). The results were similar after adjusting for prognostic variables and when observed at different time points.Conclusion: Visual recovery is similar in patients treated with 5-day and 7-day duration treatments of 1 g/day intravenous methylprednisolone, suggesting a ceiling effect. Limiting the duration of the treatment can reduce hospital stay and costs, without interfering with clinical benefit.

    Real-world application of the 2022 diagnostic criteria for first-ever episode of optic neuritis
    (2023) TERRIM, Sara; SILVA, Guilherme Diogo; FALCAO, Fernando Cavalcanti de Sa e Benevides; PEREIRA, Clarissa dos Reis; BENASSI, Thais de Souza Andrade; FORTINI, Ida; GONCALVES, Marcia Rubia Rodrigues; CASTRO, Luiz Henrique Martins; COMERLATTI, Luiz Roberto; RIMKUS, Carolina de Medeiros; ADONI, Tarso; PEREIRA, Samira Luisa Apostolos; MONTEIRO, Mario Luiz; CALLEGARO, Dagoberto
    Optic neuritis (ON) admits diverse differential diagnoses. Petzold proposed diagnostic criteria for ON in 2022, although real-world application of these criteria is missing. We conducted a retrospective review of patients with ON. We classified patients into definite or possible ON, and into groups A (typical neuritis), B (painless), or C (binocular) and estimated the frequency of etiologies for each group. We included 77 patients, with 62% definite and 38% possible ON. CRION and NMOSD-AQP4 negative-ON were less commonly seen in definite ON. Application of the 2022 criteria revealed a lower-than-expected frequency of definite ON, particularly for seronegative non-MS causes.
