Summary: | Purpose
To assess the vitreous and serum levels of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), S100B and malondialdehyde (MDA) in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) cases and investigate the correlation between preoperative and postoperative anatomical and clinical features.
Materials and methods
The study group included patients who had pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for PDR. The control group included non-diabetic individuals who underwent PPV surgery for vitreoretinal interface disorders. Samples of serum were taken from all participants preoperatively, while vitreous samples were taken during the PPV. Vitreous and serum levels of NSE, S100B and MDA were measured, and comparisons were made between the groups.
Results
The study group consisted of 56 eyes of 56 cases with PDR. The control group consisted of 20 eyes of 20 cases. The concentrations of vitreous NSE, S100B and MDA were significantly higher than the control group (
