| アブストラクト | BACKGROUND: Quinolones comprise a class of antibiotics that are globally preferred for treating a wide range of bacterial infections due to their potency, broad coverage, favorable pharmacologic profile, and mostly mild to moderate adverse reactions. Spontaneous reports on adverse drug events (ADE) and data from some pharmacoepidemiologic studies have raised concerns regarding quinolones and risk of retinal detachment (RD). This study examined ADE reports submitted to FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) for evidence on quinolone-associated RD risk. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We identified all RD reports in FAERS between 2010-2019. We compared ADE signals between quinolones and selected medications that were previously associated with RD, and with reference medications not known to cause RD. For signal detection, we used two techniques: the proportional reporting ratio (PRR) and multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS), which are known for their higher sensitivity and specificity for ADE signal detection, respectively. RESULTS: Moxifloxacin showed a positive and significant PRR signal for RD [PRR: 2.54 (1.60, 4.04)], and a marginally significant EBGM signal [EBGM: 2.21 (1.41, 3.02)]. CONCLUSION: Moxifloxacin is the only quinolone showing a positive disproportionality signal for RD. Further epidemiologic research is needed to clarify the association between moxifloxacin and RD risk. |
