Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Cerebral Connectivity and Volume in Neurodegeneration and Glaucoma (EVOLUTION)

2026年8月31日 更新者:University Hospital, Bordeaux
The EVOLUTION is a 10-year extension of the ENVOL study. It seeks to compare the evolution of structural and functional connectivity (Hub Disruption Index) and cerebral volume on 3T MRI of the brain in glaucoma patients and matched controls. The study aims to examine the hypothesis that glaucomatous optic neuropathy is not limited solely to the visual pathway, but rather is associated with a broader degeneration of the central nervous system.

详细说明

Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease characterised by a progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells, typical optic neuropathy with a loss of visual field and visual function. High intraocular pressure is it's main risk factor, but the patophysiology hasn't been clearely understood, as there exist forms with normal ocular pressure (NTG - normal tension glaucoma) or mixed forms. Studies have shown that the degeneration is not limited to retinal ganglion cells only, but rather it affects the whole visual pathway including the occipital cortex. The ENVOL study has been able to show microstructural alterations of the optic radiations in glaucoma. Furthermore, glaucomatous patients have been found to be more at risk of developing other neurodegenerative diseases, namely Alzheimer's disease.

The EVOLUTION study is set to repeat 3T brain MRI in patients previously enrolled in ENVOL in order to compare brain microstructure between glaucomatous and matched healthy subjects, assess their ocular status and glaucoma progression over time, as well as compare them with orignal imagery from 10 years prior.

gression over time, as well as compare them with orignal imagery from 10 years prior.

Study subjects will undergo a typical non-invasive ophthalmic screening comprised of best-corrected visual acuity testing, slit-lamp biomicroscopy, gonioscopy, indirect opthalmoscopy, fundus photography, 30° visual field testing and optical coherence tomography of the optic nerve. They will also answer a questionnaire concerning their medical treatment, cardiovascular health and tobacco use. Next, they will undergo a 3T brain MRI comprised of a T1-weighted 3D morphological sequence, 3D FLAIR, resting state fMRI and diffusion tensor imaging.
