Aim: To investigate the efficacy of nintedanib on reducing postoperative inflammation, fibrosis and adhesion formation following extraocular muscle surgery in rabbits in comparison with triamcinolone acetonide (TA).
Methods: Reinsertion of superior rectus muscle in right eyes of 30 New Zealand white rabbits were performed. They were randomized to receive one of the following treatments: 0.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the effects of corneal cross-linking (CXL) and a matrix-regenerating agent (RGTA) on rabbits with alkali-burned corneas, focusing on recovery metrics over three weeks.
- Results showed that while both treatments improved epithelial healing and reduced neovascularization, RGTA had notably less ulceration compared to the control group.
- Histopathological analysis indicated that CXL and RGTA were more effective at addressing tissue damage than the control group, suggesting both therapies could be beneficial in treating corneal injuries, though more research is needed for optimization.
