We have seen the efficacy of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy in the treatment of diabetic macular oedema (DMO) as demonstrated by the major clinical trials, but what do we do for those that respond poorly to the standard treatment regimen? Let’s discuss this issue and others as it pertains to the treatment of DMO.

Abstract Excess soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt-1), a soluble inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor pathway, has been demonstrated to promote endothelial dysfunction. Here, we demonstrate that sFlt-1 plasma levels correlate with respiratory symptom severity, expression of endothelial dysfunction biomarker, and incidence of organ failure in coronavirus disease 2019 patients. Clinical Trials Registration NCT04394195.
