| Core Tip |
Low-molecular-weight dextran (LMWD) is considered a safe alternative to contrast during optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging. We evaluated differences between patients who used additional LMWD for OCT (LMWD group) and those who used contrast exclusively (Contrast group) and performed a propensity score-matched subgroup comparison. The LMWD group demonstrated a strong trend toward the progression of renal insufficiency during the 1-year follow-up. Propensity score-matched analyses indicated a trend toward worsening renal function in the LMWD group at the 1-year follow-up. Additional use of LMWD for OCT may not be protective against worsening renal function in patients with advanced renal insufficiency. |
