Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease optic neuritis (MOGAD-ON) and nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) can cause acute optic neuropathy in older adults but have different managements. We aimed to determine differentiating factors between MOGAD-ON and NAION and the frequency of serum MOG-IgG false positivity among patients with NAION.

METHODS

In this international, multicenter, case-control study at tertiary neuro-ophthalmology centers, patients with MOGAD presenting with unilateral optic neuritis as their first attack at age 45 years or older and age-matched and sex-matched patients with NAION were included. Comorbidities, clinical presentations, acute optic disc findings, optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings, and outcomes were compared between MOGAD-ON and NAION. Multivariate analysis was performed to find statistically significant predictors of MOGAD-ON. A separate review of consecutive NAION patients seen at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, from 2018 to 2022, was conducted to estimate the frequency of false-positive MOG-IgG in this population.

RESULTS

Sixty-four patients with unilateral MOGAD-ON were compared with 64 patients with NAION. Among patients with MOGAD-ON, the median age at onset was 56 (interquartile range [IQR] 50-61) years, 70% were female, and 78% were White. Multivariate analysis showed that eye pain was strongly associated with MOGAD-ON (OR 32.905; 95% CI 2.299-473.181), while crowded optic disc (OR 0.033; 95% CI 0.002-0.492) and altitudinal visual field defect (OR 0.028; 95% CI 0.002-0.521) were strongly associated with NAION. On OCT, peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) thickness in unilateral MOGAD-ON was lower than in NAION (median 114 vs 201 μm, p < 0.001; median pRNFL thickening 25 vs 102 μm, p < 0.001). MOGAD-ON had more severe vision loss at nadir (median logMAR 1.0 vs 0.3, p < 0.001), but better recovery (median logMAR 0.1 vs 0.3, p = 0.002). In the cohort of consecutive NAION patients, 66/212 (31%) patients with NAION were tested for MOG-IgG and 8% (95% CI 1%-14%) of those had false-positive serum MOG-IgG at low titers.

DISCUSSION

Acute unilateral optic neuropathy with optic disc edema in older adults can be caused by either MOGAD-ON or NAION. Detailed history, the degree of pRNFL swelling on OCT, and visual outcomes can help differentiate the entities and prevent indiscriminate serum MOG-IgG testing in all patients with acute optic neuropathy.

Abstract

PURPOSE

We describe the baseline ophthalmic and cardiovascular risk factors across countries, race, and sex for the Quark207 treatment trial for acute nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).

DESIGN

Prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial.

PARTICIPANTS

Adults 50 to 80 years of age with acute NAION recruited from 80 sites across 8 countries.

MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES

Ophthalmic features of NAION and cardiovascular risk factors.

METHODS

We evaluated demographics and clinical and ophthalmologic data, including best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and average visual field total deviation (TD), in affected eyes and cup-to-disc ratio in fellow eyes at enrollment. We report the prevalence (mean and standard devition, and median and interquartile range [IQR]) of ophthalmic features and cardiovascular risk factors, stratified by country, race, and sex. We corrected for multiple comparisons using Dunn's test with Bonferroni correction for continuous variables and chi-square testing with Holm-Bonferroni correction for categorical variables.

RESULTS

The study enrolled 500 men and 229 women with a median age of 60 and 61 years (P = 0.027), respectively. Participants were predominantly White (n = 570) and Asian (n = 149). The study eye BCVA was 71 characters (IQR, 53-84 characters; approximately 0.4 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution), and the TD was -16.5 dB (IQR, -22.2 to -12.6 dB) for stimulus III and -15.7 dB (IQR, -20.8 to -10.9 dB) for stimulus V. The vertical and horizontal cup-to-disc ratio was 0.1 (IQR, 0.1-0.3) for unaffected fellow eyes. The prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors varied among countries. The most notable differences were in the baseline comorbidities and ophthalmologic features, which differed between Asian and White races. Men and women differed with respect to a few clinically meaningful features.

CONCLUSIONS

The cardiovascular risk factors in the NAION cohort varied among the 7 countries, race, and sex, but were not typically more prevalent than in the general population. Ophthalmic features, typical of NAION, generally were consistent across countries, race, and sex, except for worse BCVA and TD in China. Men have a frequency of NAION twice that of women. Having a small cup-to-disc ratio in the fellow eye was the most prevalent risk factor across all demographics. This study suggests that factors, not yet identified, may contribute to the development of NAION.
