Background Integrated transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) is a new kind of surface ablation and has a fast reepithelialization and uncorrective visual acuity (UCVA) recovery as well as slighter postoperative pain,and epipolis laser in situ keratomileusis (Epi-LASIK) has been recognized to be an effective method for myopia.But there have been few studies to evaluate the dynamic change of the corneal biomechanical properties and posterior corneal elevation after TransPRK.Objective This study was to assess and compare the effectiveness and safety between TransPRK and Epi-LASIK for myopia with thin cornea.MethodsThis study was approved by Ethic Committee of Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital,and written informed consent was obtained from each patient.In this prospective non-randomized controlled study,93 right eyes of 93 myopic patients with the central corneal thickness 460 to 500 μm were included in Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital from June to December 2013 under the informed consent.The eyes were divided into TransPRK group for 46 eyes and Epi-LASIK group for 47 eyes.UCVA,manifest refraction,haze,corneal biomechanical properties,posterior corneal elevation,Qvalue and corneal high order wavefront aberration were analyzed before and 1 week,1 month,3 months and 6 months after operation,respectively,and the examination results were compared between the two groups.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the eyes of postoperative UCVA and manifest refraction between the TransPRK group and the Epi-LASIK group at various time points (all at P>0.05).Six months after surgery,the percentage of eyes with UCVA of 1.0 or better was 93.9%,and 90.9% eyes exhibited the targeted refraction in ± 1.00 D in the TransPRK group.Corneal haze was most obvious 1 month after surgery in both groups,with the incidence of 32.6% (15/46) in the TransPRK group and 17.4% (8/47) in the Epi-LASIK group,but no significant difference was found in the eye numbers with haze between the two groups (x2 =2.841,P =0.092).No significant differences were seen in the corneal hysteresis(CH) values and corneal resistance factor(CRF) values between the two groups (CH:Fgroup =0.000,P =0.999;CRF:Fgroup =0.110,P =0.741),however,the postoperative CH values and CRF values were significantly declined in comparison with preoperative ones,with significant differences among various time points (CH:Ftime =103.658,P =0.000;CRF:Ftime =132.008,P =0.000),while there were no remarkable differences between any two time points in postoperation (all at P>0.05).Posterior corneal surface height shifted rearward 1 week,1 month,3 months and 6 months after surgery,showing remarkable differences in comparison with before surgery in both groups (Ftime =12.868,P =0.001),but no significant differences between the two groups (Fgroup =1.923,P=0.169).No significant differences were found in Q-value between the two groups (Fgroup =0.191,P=0.663).Root mean square (RMS) and spherical aberration values elevated in postoperation compared with preoperation,with significant differences between them(all at P<0.01),but the comparison between intergroup was insignificant (RMS:Fgroup =0.299,P =0.586;Spherical aberration:Fgroup =1.290,P =0.259).Conclusions TransPRK for myopia with thin cornea is safe and stably effective like Epi-LASIK.TransPRK affects corneal biomecbanical properties early after surgery but the effect gradually lessens over time.The posterior corneal elevation shows a tiny backward displacement,while posterior corneal asphericity has no change.

Objective Using 7.0 T diffusion tensor imaging(DTI) to study myocardial fibers character in isolated rats heart in aspect of water molecular diffusion, myocardial mechanics and microstructure. Methods Fixed male rats heart (n=10) underwent DTI and the myocardial structures were quantitatively measured by Diffusion Toolkit and Matlab. The characteristic of myocardial fibers arrangement was observed and FA values and ADC values of myocardial fibers, myocardial fibers density and length, mean helix angle of left ventricular were calculated as well. Mean helix angle of anterior wall, ventricular septum, lateral wall and posterior wall of epicardium and endocardium were compared by using one?way ANOVA. Results The SD rats' myocardial fibers appeared in compact and inerratic distribution from epicardium to endocardium. Compared with HE staining, regular direction and arrangement in fibers were showed in myocardial fibers tracer map and tensor map in papillary muscle plane. Quantitative analysis showed that ADC value of SD rats' myocardial fibers was (9.6 ± 3.6) × 10-4 mm2/s, FA value was 0.80 ± 0.04, myocardial fibers density was (981±24) tracks/mm3 and myocardial fibers length was (6.18±1.71)mm. Mean helix angle of left ventricular epicardium to endocardium ranged from-81.37° to 0° and then gradually change to 82.83° . There were no significant differences in mean helix angle of anterior wall, ventricular septum, lateral wall and posterior wall of epicardium and endocardium, respectively (F=2.25, 0.40, P>0.05). Conclusions This study shows that DTI is an effective method to quantitatively measure the characteristics of myocardial fibers. This study provides useful information for further study of myocardial fibers in heart disease models.

Objective:To measure the effective optical zone (EOZ) after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) by using corneal topographic map and modulation transfer function (MTF), and to analyze the related factors affecting the EOZ.Methods:A retrospective observational case series study was performed.Sixty-two myopic patients (62 eyes) who underwent SMILE between December 2015 and July 2017 in Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital were enrolled.The EOZ was measured by using tangential corneal curvature topographic map and MTF pre- and 6-month post-operatively.The repeatability of data was determined by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cronbach Alpha coefficients; the agreement of data was identified by using Bland-Altman plot; the correlations between EOZ and surgical parameters were analyzed by utilizing Pearson correlation coefficient.This study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital(No.2015[013]). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient before surgery.Results:The ICC and Cronbach Alpha coefficients of EOZ measured by corneal topographic map were greater than 0.9, which showed high intraobserver repeatability.The Bland-Altman plots displayed relatively good agreement between the two methods.The 95% limits of agreement was -0.49 to 0.89 μm.Six months after SMILE, the EOZ measured by tangential corneal curvature gradient topographic map was (5.32±0.25)mm, which was (1.18±0.25)mm smaller than predicted optical zone, and the EOZ measured by MTF method was (5.07±0.32)mm, which was (0.20±0.35)mm smaller than corneal tomographic EOZ, and the difference was significant ( t=-4.487, P<0.01). A negative correlation was found between the EOZ and attempted refractive correction ( r=-0.364, P=0.004). The positive correlations were found between the EOZ and ΔKm or ΔQ 6 months after SMILE ( r=0.367, 0.514; both at P<0.01). Conclusions:The EOZ measured by tangential corneal curvature topographic map after SMILE is of high repeatability and is consistent with the result calculated by MTF method.The EOZ is significantly reduced after SMILE.
