PURPOSE: The widespread use of antibiotics has many well-documented impacts on the human microbiome, which may be associated with the development of various inflammatory diseases. Despite age-related macular degeneration (AMD) featuring an inflammatory pathogenesis, the relationship between antibiotics and AMD has remained unexplored. We conducted the first study to determine the association between antibiotic exposure and a new-onset International Classification of Diseases (ICD) diagnosis of AMD.
METHODS: We performed a case-control analysis of patients aged 55 and older with new-onset AMD between 2008 and 2017 from a nationwide commercial health insurance claims database. Exposure to antibiotics in the two years before the index date was determined for cases and controls matched one-to-one by age, year, region, anemia, hypertension, and a comorbidity index. Conditional multivariable logistic regression, adjusted for AMD risk factors, was performed to calculate odd ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).
RESULTS: Among the antibiotic classes, exposure to aminoglycosides (OR = 1.24; 95% CI, 1.22-1.26) and fluoroquinolones (OR = 1.13; 95% CI, 1.12-1.14) was associated with the greatest odds of a new-onset ICD code diagnosis of AMD. Broad-spectrum antibiotics were associated with nearly three times greater odds of a new-onset ICD code diagnosis of AMD (OR = 1.15; 95% CI, 1.13-1.16) compared to narrow-spectrum antibiotics (OR = 1.05; 95% CI, 1.03-1.07). We also identified a frequency- and duration-dependent association, with a greater cumulative number of antibiotic prescriptions or day supply of antibiotics conferring increased odds of a new-onset ICD code diagnosis of AMD.
CONCLUSIONS: Greater cumulative exposure to antibiotics, particularly fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides, and those with broader-spectrum coverage, may be associated with the development of AMD, a finding that requires further investigation using prospective studies.
