Figure 4.
Plasma levels of VWF antigen, ADAMTS13 activity, and VEGF-A before and after intravitreal injection of aflibercept in patients with exudative AMD. (A) Plasma levels of VEGF-A were significantly decreased at 1 day after injection (***p < 0.001), and this reduction continued until 1 month after injection (*p < 0.05). (B) Plasma VWF:Ag levels gradually decreased after injection, with a significant reduction starting at 1 week (**p < 0.01). (C) No significant change was observed in ADAMTS13:AC after injection.
