Development of a predictive model based on aqueous cytokines data for response to anti-VEGF therapy in diabetic macular edema
The baseline cytokine-based model helped to assess the individual probability of response to anti-VEGF therapy. There are cytokines beyond VEGF that are involved in the pathogenesis of DME, therapeutic regimens targeting these cytokines may improve the visual acuity and reduce macular edema.
