THERAPEUTIC EFFECT OF USING AUTOLOGOUS PLATELET CONCENTRATE IN VITRECTOMY FOR MACULAR HOLE: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Purpose:
To summarize the current evidence regarding the therapeutic effect of using autologous platelet concentrate (APC) in vitrectomy for macular hole (MH).
Methods:
The PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases were searched according to the PROSPERO protocol (CRD42022366202). Controlled trials comparing whether APC was used in the vitrectomy of MH were included. The primary outcome was the closure rate of MH and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity, and the secondary outcome was the incidence of different types of complications.
Results:
Seven studies that included 634 eyes were eligible. For the primary outcome, the usage of APC significantly improved the closure rate of MH in vitrectomy (odds ratio [OR] = 5.34, 95% confidence interval, 2.83–10.07, P
