    Purpose This study aims to compare postoperative refractive error results using Pentacam (Oculus Optikgerate GmbH) Holladay equivalent keratometry readings (EKR) or IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) keratometry (K) values in IOL power calculation. Material and methods This retrospective study included 54 eyes of 31 patients who underwent cataract surgery. Preoperative biometric measurements of all patients were obtained using IOLMaster 700 followed by Pentacam measurements. IOLMaster 700 K measurements on horizontal (K1) and vertical (K2) axes and EKR measurements on 2 mm (EKR2mm), 3 mm (EKR3mm) and 4.5 mm (EKR4.5 mm) corneal zones were recorded. EKR4.5 mm value and IOLMaster 700 K values were used in Holladay-II, SRK/T, Haigis, and Hoffer-Q formulas to calculate predictive refractive error (PRE). Absolute refractive error (ARE) was calculated as the absolute difference between actual postoperative refractive error (APRE) and PRE values. Results Mean age was 72.2 +/- 8.3 (51-87) years and mean IOL power was 21.5 +/- 2.9 D (18-23 D). There was no significant difference between PRE values when IOLMaster 700 K measurements and EKR4.5 mm K measurements were used in Holladay-II, SRK/T, Haigis, and Hoffer-Q formulas (p = 0.571, p = 0.833, p = 0.165, p = 0.347, respectively). There was no significant difference between APRE and ARE values (p = 0.124). According to mean ARE results, the closest estimate was achieved when the IOLMaster 700 K values were used in the Holladay-II formula (p = 0.271). Conclusion IOLMaster 700 K measurement and Pentacam EKR4.5 mm measurements can be used interchangeably. IOLMaster 700 K values yielded the most predictive measurement of the refractive result using the Holladay-II formula.

    Antiproliferative and anti-apoptotic effect of astaxanthin in an oxygen-induced retinopathy mouse model
    (2019) Kucukoduk, Ali; Helvacıoglu, Fatma; Haberal, Nihan; Dagdeviren, Atilla; Bacanli, Didem; Yilmaz, Gursel; Akkoyun, Imren; 0000-0001-8990-8282; 30851776; P-2877-2014
    Objective: To evaluate the impact of intravitreal (IV) and intraperitoneal (IP) astaxanthin (AST) injections on neovascular development (ND), retinal morphology, and apoptotic activity in a C57BL/6J mouse model with hyperoxia-induced retinopathy (HIR). Design: C57BL/6J mouse model. Methods: Two negative control groups (n = 6 each; one of which received IV sterile dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO]) of C57BL/6J-type mice were exposed to room air. The HIR groups included 36 C57BL/6J-type mice exposed to 75% +/- 2% oxygen from postnatal day (PD) 7 to PD 12. On PD 12, these mice were randomized into 6 groups (n = 6 each): 2 HIR control groups (one of which received IV-DMSO), 2 IV-AST groups (10 and 100 mu g/mL), and 2 IP-AST groups (0.5 and 5 mg/kg). We measured ND by counting neovascular tufts in cross sections and examined histological, ultrastructural changes via light and electron microscopy. Apoptosis was detected using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end-labeling. Results: No ND was detected in the negative control groups. ND levels were not significantly different between high- and low-dose AST for either means of administration. However, ND levels were significantly lower in the AST groups, regardless of delivery, compared to the control groups. The means of delivery (IP versus IV) also yielded significant differences in ND. The incidence of mitochondrial dysmorphology and apoptosis were lower in groups receiving AST. Conclusions: AST seems to suppress ND and has anti-apoptotic activity in the HIR mouse model.
