Abstract

Purpose: To compare the thickness of the retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL), ganglion cell layer (GCL), inner plexiform layer (IPL), and choroid in healthy electronic cigarette smokers and non-smokers using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).

Material and method: 25 healthy electronic cigarette smokers and 25 age- and gender-matched healthy non-smokers were included in the study. RNFL, GCL, IPL and choroidal thickness were measured by SD-OCT using an automated programme. After normality tests, an independent sample t-test was used to analyse the differences in RNFL, GCL, IPL, and choroidal thickness values between the groups.

Results: The mean age of electronic cigarette smokers and non-smokers was 33.68 and 33.64 years, respectively. The mean smoking history was 6.6 years (range 5-8 years). Most of the participants smoked 2-5 ml of e-liquid per day (52%), while 36% smoked more than 5 ml and 12% smoked less than 2 ml per day. The mean intraocular pressure in the electronic cigarette smoker group was 15.0 mmHg, while the non-smoker group was 15.32 mmHg. The mean axial length in the electronic cigarette smoker group and non-smoker group was 23.36 and 23.63 mm, respectively. No significant difference was observed regarding RNFL, GCL, IPL or choroidal thickness between both groups.

Conclusion: The thickness of the RNFL, GCL, IPL, and choroid was found to be similar in both the healthy electronic cigarette smokers and non-smokers groups.

吸电子烟对视网膜神经纤维层、神经节细胞层、内丛状层和脉络膜厚度的影响。
目的:使用光谱域光学相干断层扫描(SD-OCT)比较健康电子烟吸烟者和非吸烟者的视网膜神经纤维层(RNFL)、神经节细胞层(GCL)、内丛状层(IPL)和脉络膜的厚度。使用自动程序通过 SD-OCT 测量 RNFL、GCL、IPL 和脉络膜厚度。经过正态性检验后,采用独立样本 t 检验分析各组间 RNFL、GCL、IPL 和脉络膜厚度值的差异:电子烟吸烟者和非吸烟者的平均年龄分别为 33.68 岁和 33.64 岁。平均吸烟史为 6.6 年(5-8 年不等)。大多数参与者(52%)每天吸 2-5 毫升电子烟液,36% 吸 5 毫升以上,12% 吸 2 毫升以下。电子烟吸食者组的平均眼压为 15.0 毫米汞柱,而非吸食者组为 15.32 毫米汞柱。电子烟吸烟者组和非吸烟者组的平均眼轴长度分别为 23.36 毫米和 23.63 毫米。两组的 RNFL、GCL、IPL 或脉络膜厚度均无明显差异:结论:健康的电子烟吸烟者组和非吸烟者组的 RNFL、GCL、IPL 和脉络膜厚度相似。

期刊介绍: Cutaneous and Ocular Toxicology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that covers all types of harm to cutaneous and ocular systems. Areas of particular interest include pharmaceutical and medical products; consumer, personal care, and household products; and issues in environmental and occupational exposures. In addition to original research papers, reviews and short communications are invited, as well as concise, relevant, and critical reviews of topics of contemporary significance.
