Effect of torsional versus longitudinal phacoemulsification on the corneal endothelium

Journal of the Egyptian Ophthalmological Society, 2015
Background/aim The present study aims to compare postoperative endothelial outcome after cataract surgery performed with longitudinal phacoemulsification with that performed with torsional phacoemulsification in patients with senile cataract.

Corneal Changes in Diabetic Patients after Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014
Background: Diabetics have abnormal corneal morphology along with higher rate of corneal endothelial cell loss and decreased corneal endothelial cell density and early onset of cataract. Aim: To evaluate the changes in corneal endothelium and corneal

Vitamin D Attenuates Loss of Endothelial Biomarker Expression in Cardio-Endothelial Cells [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Vitamin D is associated with cardiovascular health through activating the vitamin D receptor that targets genes related to cardiovascular disease (CVD). The human cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (HCMECs) were used to develop mechanically and TGF-β1-induced fibrosis models, and the rat was used as the isoproterenol (ISO)-induced fibrosis model ...

Comparison of Femtosecond Laser-Assisted and Ultrasound-Assisted Cataract Surgery with Focus on Endothelial Analysis

Sensors, 2021
Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery has the potential to make critical steps of cataract surgery easier and safer, and reduce endothelial cell loss, thus, improving postoperative outcomes. This study compared FLACS with the conventional method in

Loss of CEACAM1 in endothelial cells causes hepatic fibrosis

Metabolism, 2023
Hepatocytic CEACAM1 plays a critical role in NASH pathogenesis, as bolstered by the development of insulin resistance, visceral obesity, steatohepatitis and fibrosis in mice with global Ceacam1 (Cc1) deletion. In contrast, VECadCre+Cc1fl/fl mice with endothelial loss of Cc1 manifested insulin sensitivity with no visceral obesity despite elevated NF-κB ...

Accelerated Corneal Endothelial Cell Loss after Phacoemulsification in Patients with Mildly Low Endothelial Cell Density. [PDF]

J Clin Med, 2021
By evaluating preoperative endothelial cell density (ECD), ECD loss after phacoemulsification can be predicted. In this retrospective cross-sectional study, we compared outcomes of phacoemulsification with different levels of preoperative ECD. Three-hundred-and-fifty-three patients aged between 18 and 90 years received phacoemulsification at Chang Gung

Efficacy of manual small incision cataract surgery in preventing the endothelial cell loss

MRIMS Journal of Health Sciences, 2016
Background: Every year 5 million cataract surgeries are performed in India. Two major procedures are used to conduct cataract operations either MSICS/Phecoemulisfication. In both the procedures the loss of endothelial cells are observed.

Clear corneal grafts with subcritical endothelial cell count after 1 year of penetrating keratoplasty

TNOA Journal of Ophthalmic Science and Research, 2018
Endothelial cell loss after penetrating keratoplasty leads to graft failure. The critical limit of the endothelial cell count for corneal decompensation is thought to be 700 cells/mm2.

Study of corneal endothelial cell layer 3 months after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty

Journal of the Egyptian Ophthalmological Society, 2023
Background To study the endothelial cell layer 3 months after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) using specular microscopy to provide data about the endothelial cell density (ECD), endothelial cell loss (ECL) percentage, and changes in ...
