Article Synopsis
  • A systematic study was conducted to evaluate the cytotoxicity of conventional cigarettes compared to e-cigarettes, focusing on their aerosol and smoke components.
  • The research discovered that conventional cigarettes (CSC) were significantly more cytotoxic than e-cigarettes (EAC), with results showing EAC required at least 12 times higher concentrations to achieve similar effects on certain cell types.
  • Among various flavors tested, Cola-flavored EAC was the most toxic, primarily due to its flavoring agents, while differences in cellular mechanisms were noted, with CSC producing higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and inhibiting autophagy compared to EAC.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the measurements of corneal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) obtained by a new anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) technique combined with a Placido topographer (the MS-39 device) in eyes with prior small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and compare them to the measurements obtained by a Scheimpflug camera combined with a Placido topographer (the Sirius device).

Methods: A total of 56 eyes (56 patients) were included in this prospective study. Corneal aberrations were analyzed for the anterior, posterior, and total cornea surfaces.
