BACKGROUND: @entity3193 ( @entity6520 ) in the Haler's layer were evaluated as markers of inflammatory insult in @entity1596 ( @entity1596 ). Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (Spectralis  , Heidelberg Engineering Inc.) scans were acquired from 23 normal subjects (39 eyes - group 1), 7 subjects with high @entity1714 (14 eyes - group 2), and 19 @entity1 with @entity1596 (23 eyes - group 3). In groups 1 and 2, CTh and @entity6520 were measured at 3 different points of the same horizontal OCT scan passing through the fovea and a mean calculated. Mean CTh and @entity6520 were calculated in 2 other locations, 2 mm superior and inferior from the chosen foveal horizontal scan. In group 3, three measurements of CTh and @entity6520 were obtained within 1 mm of a horizontal scan passing through a @entity989 ; mean CTh and @entity6520 were then computed. A ratio (R) between the @entity6520 and the corresponding CTh was calculated. RESULTS: Group 1, 2 and 3 mean age was 29.6, 29.1 and 45.9 years, respectively. Sixteen normal subjects, three myopic subjects and six @entity1596 @entity1 were male.. Group 1 mean CTh did not differ from group 2 (261.6  45.6 vs. 260.2  50.6   m   m; p>0.05); mean @entity6520 was marginally higher in Group 2 (159.8  32.2 vs. 163.2  33.2   m; p>0.05). Group 3 demonstrated thinner CTh (193.6  54.6   m) than Groups 1 and 2 (p = 0.02 and <0.001). Group 3 mean @entity6520 (123.6  37.4   m) was also less than that in Groups 1 and 2; the difference was statistically significant only when compared to group 2, p = 0.01. R did not differ across groups (p-values >0.05), indicating that variations in CTh and @entity6520 followed the same trend. CONCLUSIONS: The study reports potential quantitative OCT-derived parameters that may be explored in future trials of @entity1596 . Thinning of choroid and decrease of @entity6520 are observed in @entity1 with chronic @entity1596 compared to controls.
