Abstract

ABSTRACT DIFFERENCE OF OSDI SCORE BEFORE AND AFTER ‘SENAM PERMATA-KU’ IN COMPUTER VISION SYNDROME Background: Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) is a group of symptoms that affects the eye and vision due to prolonged use of computer, cellphone, tablet, and e-reader. Dry eye is one of the symptoms that appear in CVS. In this study we did ‘senam PERMATA-KU’ (Pelihara Mata–Kendorkan Bahu) as additional exercise to reduce dry eye in CVS. Aim: Observe there is any improvement of OSDI (Ocular Surface Disease Index) score before and after doing “senam PERMATA-KU” in CVS. Methods: This was a Pre-Post with Control Design quasi experimental study. The subjects were students of Faculty of Medicine of Diponegoro University who had CVS and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria that were divided randomly into control group and experimental group. The experimental group were given an education about using computer ergonomically and ‘senam PERMATA-KU’ for 14 days. The control group were given an education about using computer ergonomically. OSDI score were measured before and after intervention was given using Ocular Surface Disease Index questionnaire. Result: The subjects were 32 students with 16 students in the experimental group and 16 students in the control group. One student in the control group and one student in the experimental group dropped out because they could not complete the procedure so that only 30 subjects were analyzed. OSDI score after intervention in experimental group was decreased significantly (p<0.05). OSDI score after intervention in experimental group was better compared to control group (p<0.05). OSDI score improvement in experimental group was higher compared to control group but statistically is not significant (p=0.595). Conclusion: ‘senam PERMATA-KU’ that was done for 14 days can improve OSDI score in Computer Vision Syndrome. Keywords: Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS), Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), dry eye, ‘senam PERMATA-KU’

Abstract

Background: Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) induces inflammation in the trabecular meshwork (TM) through increases in tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) expressions by activating nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB). Mechanical injury to the TM, such as increased IOP, can cause extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, impacting the permanent outflow of aqueous humor. Moringa oleifera (MO) leaf extract is an anti- inflammatory agent that inhibits NF-κB activation and has been studied to have antioxidant effects.Objective: to analyze the effects of MO leaf extract on TNF- α expression and the thickness of the trabecular meshwork ECM in a Wistar rat glaucoma model. Methods: Fourteen male Wistar rats were divided into two groups (n=7): the glaucoma group received oral MO leaf extract at 300 mg/kg body weight for four weeks, and the control group. TNF-α expressions were measured by immunohistochemical stain, and the thickness of the ECM was examined with hematoxylin eosin staining. P-values of less than 0.05 were considered to represent statistical significance.Results: The mean of TNF-α expressions in the treatment group was 4.29 ± 0.76, and the control group was 5.29 ± 0.49. There was a significant difference in TNF-α expressions between the two groups (p=0.015). The mean thickness of the ECM TM experimental group and control group were 155.65 ± 28.72μm and 218.63 ± 40.85μm respectively. The extracellular matrix TM experimental group was statistically significantly thinner than the control group (p=0.006).Conclusion: MO could protect TM from damage caused by high IOP by suppressed TNF- α expression and ECM thickness in the TM Wistar glaucoma model.

Abstract

Introduction & ObjectivesOne of important roles in the pathogenesis of glaucoma is vascular condition. To enhance glaucomamanagement, the clinical assessment of ocular perfusion is required. The pupillary light reflex'safferent or efferent pathways may become impaired as a result of pupil cycle time (PCT) elongation.PCT is a simple objective method to measure the function of optic nerve, including glaucoma. Thepurpose of this study is to evaluate the connection between pupil PCT and peripapillary perfusion. MethodsA cross-sectional study from Kariadi Hospital included 26 eyes with angle closure glaucoma and 26eyes of healthy patients. Complete ophthalmologic examinations, PCT measurements, and OCTperipapillary angiography were performed on each patient. Patients with history of drugs use thatcan affect pupillary reflexes such as barbiturates, methyldopa, anaesthetics, and antidepressant, andpatients with history of glaucoma attack are excluded. The comparisons between the two groupswere examined, with a p<0.05 indicating statistical significance. ResultsThe mean PCT of normal subjects was 943,4ms (882,4ms – 993,4ms) and angle closure glaucomasubject was 1789,5ms (1060ms – 4600ms). There were statistically significant difference of PCTvalue in angle closure glaucoma compared to normal subjects (P<0,05). Peripapillary flow index andperipapillary vessel density in closed angle glaucomatous eyes were lower than normal eyes(P<0.05). There is a significant relationship between PCT with peripapillary flow index andperipapillary vessel density. (P<0,05). ConclusionIn angle closure glaucoma, prolonged PCT associated with decreased peripapillary perfusion asshown by decreases in peripapillary flow index and peripapillary vascular density.

Abstract

Introduction & ObjectivesNeovascular glaucoma (NVG) is known to be a refractory form of glaucoma, which frequentlyrequires the integrated use of medical, laser and incisional surgery. Tube-shunt implantation andtrabeculectomy with antifibrotic agent are the two most-popular incisional procedures for managingrefractory glaucoma. This study aims to compare surgical outcome between patients who underwenttrabeculectomy versus tube-shunt implantation for the treatment of NVG. MethodsA retrospective study was held of NVG patients that underwent trabeculectomy and tube-shuntimplantation between January 2020 - December 2022 at Dr. Kariadi Hospital, Semarang. IOPoutcome and success rate was measured at 3 months post operatively. Statistical analysis was usedto compare the outcome between groups, p<0.05 was considered significant. ResultsThere were no significant differences in characteristics between groups at baseline. Mean IOPmeasured at 3 months post operatively was 18.58 ± 5.53 and 15.94 ± 10.79 in trabeculectomy andtube group respectively (p=0.04), complete success rate was 18.8% in trabeculectomy and 25% intube group, qualified success rate was 37.5% in trabeculectomy and 56.3% in tube group. Greaterfailure rate was observed in trabeculectomy group (43.8%). ConclusionCompared to trabeculectomy, tube-shunt implantation has lower IOP at 3 months post operatively inNVG. Greater failure rate was observed in trabeculectomy.

Abstract

Background: Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disorder involving retinal ganglion cell loss. Elevated intraocular pressure activates the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and Glutamate Receptor 4 (GluR4), inducing oxidative stress via the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathway and triggering antioxidant responses through the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) pathway, which contributes to disease progression and informs therapeutic insights.Objective: To explore NMDA, GluR4, NF-κB, and NRF2 roles in glaucoma pathophysiology and identify therapeutic targets using Wistar rat models.Methods: This experimental research was conducted using a post-test-only control group design. Fourteen male Wistar rats were divided into two groups (n = 7). The glaucoma group underwent episcleral veincauterization (EVC) to induce a high intraocular pressure (IOP), whereas the control group remained untreated. Four weeks after EVC, evaluations included the expression of NMDA, GluR4, NF-κB, and NRF2 receptors. Statistical significance was defined as a p-value < 0.05. Statistical analysis was performed using a parametric independent t-test and a Mann-Whitney U test.Results: The mean NMDA expression was significantly higher in the glaucoma group (14.50 ± 4.23) compared to the control group (7.74 ± 3.24, p=0.006). Similarly, the mean GluR4 expression was elevated in the glaucoma group (10.77 ±2.40) compared to the control group (3.03 ± 4.05, p = 0.012). The mean NF-κB expression was 14.96 ± 4.87 in the glaucoma group, significantly higher than 6.72 ± 1.84 in the control group (p = 0.003). Conversely, the mean NRF2  expression was significantly lower in the glaucoma group (3.98 ± 1.10) than in the control group (7.18 ± 1.61, p < 0.001).Conclusion: The study highlights significant changes in all four variables, where NMDA, GluR4, NF-κB expressions were higher, and NRF2 expression was lower
