Objective To explore the effects of Dendrimer-N-acetylcysteine(D-NAC)on retinal revascularization in oxygen-induced retinopathy(OIR)mice and related mechanisms.Methods Fourteen healthy C57BL/6J mice aged 7 days were used to establish an OIR mouse model.The mice were then divided into a control group and an experimental group.The control group was injected intravitreally with 1 μL of Dendrimer at a concentration of 1 g·L-1 into the left eye.The experimental group was injected intravitreally with 1 μL of D-NAC at a concentration of 1 g·L-1 into the right eye.Fluo-rescence staining of retina flat-mounting and Photoshop software were used to calculate the areas of vaso-obliteration and pathological neovascularization in each group of mice.Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of inflammatory factors in the mouse retina.Enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the protein expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in the mouse reti-na.SPSS18.0 software was used for statistical analysis of data.Results The area of vaso-obliteration in the experimental group[(13.55±3.42)mm2]was 38.18％smaller than that in the control group on the 17th day after birth[(21.92±3.13)mm2](t=17.76,P＜0.01).The area of pathological neovascularization in the experimental group[(7.24±2.11)mum2]was significantly smaller than that in the control group[(10.12±2.74)mm2](t=2.91,P＜0.05).The relative mRNA ex-pression levels of TNF-α,interleukin-1 β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),intercellular adhesion molecule 1(ICAM-1)and c-c motif chemokine ligand-7(CCL-7)in the mouse retina of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group on the 16th day after birth(all P＜0.05).The relative mRNA expression levels of the astrocyte activation marker,glial fibrillary acidic proteins(GFAP),and the microglial activation marker,ionized calcium binding adaptor mole-cule 1(IBA-1)in the mouse retina of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group on the 16th day after birth(both P＜0.05).ELISA results showed that the expression of TNF-α proteins in the mouse retina of the experimental group[(16.40±5.58)ng·g-1]was 25.49％lower than that of the control group[(22.01±5.82)ng·g-1]on the 16th day after birth(t=7.81,P=0.002).Conclusion Intravitreal injection of D-NAC may promote retinal revas-cularization in OIR mice by reducing levels of retinal inflammatory factors and inhibiting the activation of astrocytes and mi-croglial cells.

【Objective】 To investigate the influencing factors of surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) in phacoemulsification. 【Methods】 Cataract phacoemulsification was performed in 69 patients with regular corneal astigmatism from December 2021 to March 2022. SIA of the anterior corneal surface, posterior corneal surface and simulated keratometry (SimK) in the diameter range of 3 mm, 5 mm and 7 mm centered at the apex of the cornea was observed. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze SIA with age, axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), white-to-white (WTW), and central corneal thickness (CCT). Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of SIA. 【Results】 The mean age of the 69 patients was (63.25±14.74) years old, and 28 (40.58%) were male. The analysis found that the |SIA| of SimK was negatively correlated with WTW (r=-0.265, P=0.028), the |SIA| of 3 mm, 5 mm, 7 mm anterior surface was negatively correlated with WTW (r=-0.320, P=0.007; r=-0.337, P=0.005; r=-0.287, P=0.017), and the |SIA| of 3 mm, 5 mm, 7 mm posterior surface was negatively correlated with AL (r=-0.390, P=0.001; r=-0.352, P=0.003; r=-0.317, P=0.008). Multiple regression analysis showed that WTW was negatively correlated with |SIA| of SimK, 3 mm, 5 mm, 7 mm anterior surface and 3 mm posterior surface (B=-0.261, P=0.047; B=-0.387, P=0.016; B=-0.323, P=0.009; B=-0.297, P=0.041; B=-0.085, P=0.049). WTW was positively correlated with XSIA of 3 mm anterior surface, YSIA of 5 mm, and 7 mm anterior surface (B=0.347, P=0.040; B=0.318, P=0.034; B=0.403, P=0.010). AL was negatively correlated with |SIA| on the posterior surface of 3 mm and 5 mm (B=-0.023, P=0.021; B=-0.034, P=0.030). 【Conclusion】 During cataract surgery, the effect of ocular biological parameters such as axial length and corneal diameter on SIA should be considered.
