研究人员观察到,MS复发患者比MS未复发的患者视网膜变薄的速度快42%,具体的研究结果如下:钆增强病变(炎性病变)的MS患者视网膜变薄速度快54%;核磁共振显示,有新T2病变的MS患者比一般MS患者视网膜变薄的速度快36%;研究过程中视网膜变薄速度快37%,受试者的残疾程度就加重;患病5年以内的患者比患病5年以上的患者,视网膜变薄速度快43%。

Active MS is associated with accelerated retinal ganglion cell/inner plexiform layer thinning
Objective
To determine the effect of clinical and radiologic disease activity on the rate of thinning of the ganglion cell/inner plexiform (GCIP) layer and the retinal nerve fiber layer in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) using optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Methods
One hundred sixty-four patients with MS and 59 healthy controls underwent spectral-domain OCT scans every 6 months for a mean follow-up period of 21.1 months. Baseline and annual contrast-enhanced brain MRIs were performed. Patients who developed optic neuritis during follow-up were excluded from analysis.
Results
Patients with the following features of disease activity during follow-up had faster rates of annualized GCIP thinning: relapses (42% faster, p = 0.007), new gadolinium-enhancing lesions (54% faster, p < 0.001), and new T2 lesions (36% faster, p = 0.02). Annual GCIP thinning was 37% faster in those with disability progression during follow-up, and 43% faster in those with disease duration <5 years vs >5 years (p = 0.003). Annual rates of GCIP thinning were highest in patients exhibiting combinations of new gadolinium-enhancing lesions, new T2 lesions, and disease duration <5 years (70% faster in patients with vs without all 3 characteristics, p < 0.001).
