Abstract:
Objective To detect the expression levels of cytokines[Interleukin-6(IL-6),Interleukin-8(IL-8),In-terleukin-10(IL-10),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),cell adhesion molecule(CAM)and basic fibroblast growth factor(BFGF)],cytomegalovirus(CMV)nucleic acid,rubella virus(RV)nucleic acid and antibodies in patients with Fuchs syndrome and cataract,evaluating the inflammation and viral expression in aqueous humor of patients.Meth-ods A retrospective study was conducted.A total of 18 patients(18 eyes)clinically diagnosed with Fuchs syndrome com-plicated with cataract from October 2020 to July 2022 in the Ophthalmology Department of the Zhengzhou Second Hospital were included and their preoperative data were recorded.These patients underwent phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation,with 0.1 mL aqueous humor extracted during the operation.The expression levels of cytokines(IL-6,IL-8,IL-10,VEGF,CAM and BFGF),CMV nucleic acid,RV nucleic acid and viral antibodies were quantitatively analyzed.Results In these 18 patients,the IL-6 level was normal in 13 patients and mildly elevated in 5 patients.The levels of IL-8,IL-10,VEGF,CAM and BFGF were detected in 8 patients,IL-10 was normal in all these patients,IL-8 was elevated in 2 patients,VEGF was mildly elevated in 1 patient,and CAM and BFGF levels were increased in 7 patients.The CMV and RV nucleic acids were tested in 12 patients,with all negative results.In the 18 patients involved,the RV-IgG increased in 12 patients and was normal in other 6 patients with certain titer values.In 16 patients tested for CMV-IgG and herpes simplex virus-IgG,only one patient was slightly elevated in CMV-IgG,and the rest were normal.Varicella-zoster virus-IgG was test-ed in 8 patients,and all of them were negative.Conclusion The eye inflammation of patients with Fuchs syndrome and cataract is not obvious,thus clinical RV nucleic acid is not easily detected,and the RV-IgG has a reference value in clinical diagnosis of Fuchs syndrome.
