BACKGROUND: The dysfunction of optic nerve head (ONH) hemodynamics has been suggested to be involved in the pathogenesis of normal-tension glaucoma (NTG). The aim of this study was to compare vasoreactivity in the ONH, nailfold, and facial skin in response to cold-water provocation in NTG patients and healthy controls.
METHODS: We performed cold-water provocation in 14 eyes of 14 NTG patients and 15 eyes of 15 age-matched control subjects. Laser speckle flowgraphy-derived tissue-area mean blur rate (MT), skin blood flowmetry-derived pulse wave amplitude (PA), nailfold capillaroscopy-derived nailfold capillary diameter, and other clinical parameters were recorded at baseline and 4 and 6 min after the cold stimulus. We compared changes (as percentages) in these variables in the NTG and control subjects with a linear mixed-effects model and evaluated correlations between these changes with Spearman's rank correlation coefficient.
RESULTS: The interaction term between the NTG group (reference, control group) and the 4-min protocol step (reference, baseline) significantly affected the changes in MT, nailfold capillary diameter and PA (β = -9.51%, P = 0.017, β = -20.32%, P = 0.002; β = + 18.06%, P = 0.017, respectively). The change in MT was positively correlated with the change in nailfold capillary diameter, and negatively correlated with the change in PA (r = 0.39, P = 0.036; r = -0.40, P = 0.031, respectively).
CONCLUSION: NTG patients showed abnormal vasoconstriction in the ONH and nailfold and vasodilation in the facial skin in response to cold-water provocation.
