الوصف: Objectives To investigate peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) changes in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Methods We included 21 PSP patients (36 eyes) who underwent peripapillary optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans at 2.5 ± 1.3 years of disease, without ophthalmologic co-morbidities. We compared pRNFL thicknesses in PSP eyes with age-matched 22 controls (22 eyes) using generalized estimating equation model adjusting for intra-subject inter-eye correlations, age and sex. We also analyzed the correlation between the pRNFL thickness and clinical severity using Spearman’s correlation. In twelve PSP patients with 3 T brain MRI volumetric scan within 1 year of OCT exam, we investigated the correlation between the pRNFL thickness and brain atrophy using Pearson’s correlation. Results PSP patients had global pRNFL thinning compared to controls (beta = − 6.436, p = 0.025). Global pRNFL thickness correlated with Hoehn & Yahr stages ( r = − 0.487, p = 0.025), and nasal pRNFL thinning showed a trend of correlation (uncorrected p < 0.05). Exploratory correlation analysis between global pRNFL thickness and nonmotor items in the PSP rating scale showed a trend toward association with sleep disturbances (uncorrected p = 0.008) and urinary incontinence (uncorrected p = 0.031), although not significant after Bonferroni correction (all 28 items). The patients had significant atrophy in the posterior cingulate cortex, third ventricle, pallidum, and midbrain with reduced midbrain-to-pons ratio, but no correlation was found between pRNFL thickness and brain volumes. Conclusion The pRNFL seems to be affected in PSP, which is more severe with advanced disease stages. Retinal investigation in a larger longitudinal cohort would help elucidate the pathophysiological role of retinal thinning in PSP.
