To investigate the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment with oral trofinetide in girls with Rett syndrome
NCT04945850
Several common viruses thrive and persist in intraocular fluid due to ocular immune privilege. Immune privilege is maintained by lack of lymphatic tissue, a strong blood ocular barrier, and regulation of the systemic immune response via immunosuppressive factors such as TGF-B and processes like anterior chamber associated immune deviation. Notable viruses that benefit from ocular immune sequestration include DNA viruses such as Herpes simplex virus, Varicella Zoster, Cytomegalovirus and RNA viruses like Ebola and Rubella.In light of the global 2019 Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 virus (SARS CoV-2 or commonly COVID-19) pandemic, there has been growing interest on COVID-19's long term effects on the ocular system. Ocular symptoms at the time of diagnosis and during illness have been reported previously. The most commonly reported are epiphora, chemosis, and conjunctivitis. Less common were findings of retinal hemorrhages and retinal ischemic changes. Recent literature has demonstrated its presence in ocular fluid such as tears and the aqueous humor, but whether this is sustained for an extended period of time has yet to be determined. Long term effects of covid on the neurological system are being identified - large vessel ischemic strokes, cerebral hemorrhages, cranial nerve palsies, and memory loss in young adults are being reported. The persistence of COVID 19 in the intraocular fluid several months after covid infection has not been studied previously.
