NCT02818062

Brief Summary

The host-immune reaction to infection is essential for the comprehension of the disease and the development of new therapies. The aim of the study is to describe intraocular cytokines network in aqueous humor using multiplex immunoassay, during severe intraocular infection.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Intraocular cytokine network. Intraocular levels of 27 cytokines

    Cytokines and chemokines levels in Aqueous humor (AqH) are measured with the Bio-Plex® Multiplex System human Cytokine 27-Plex Panel assay (Bio-Rad, Marne-la-Coquette, France). The immune mediators were classified in five categories: (a) proinflammatory mediators: (IL-6 and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP-1), (b) type 1 cytokines: IL-2, IL-12(p70), Interferon (IFN-γ), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), (c) type 2 cytokines: IL-4, IL-10 and IL-13, (d) T-regulatory cytokine: IL-10 and (e) Th-17 cytokine: IL-17. The cytokine and chemokine assay plate layout consisted of a standard series in duplicate (1 to 32 000 pg/ml), four blank wells and 20 μl duplicates of pooled AqH samples, diluted to 50 μl with BioPlex mouse serum diluent. The BioPlex® method was performed as recommended by the manufacturer and previously published studies. Data were analyzed with Bio-Plex Manager software® V 1.1 (Bio-Rad).

    Once in the 24 hours following the admission

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Visual acuity

    Once in the 24 hours following the admission, then 3 months, 6 months and 1 year

Study Arms (2)

Endophthalmitis

The diagnosis of endophthalmitis was made on the basis of clinical features including pain, decreased visual acuity (VA), diffuse bulbar conjunctival hyperaemia, chemosis, inflammation of the anterior segment and posterior segment inflammation (all patients had vitreous infiltration diagnosed by biomicroscopy or ophthalmic ultrasound).

Biological: Cytokines dosage in Aqueous humor

Cataract (Control)

Controls were patients who underwent cataract surgery.
