Brief Summary

ABSTRACT: PURPOSE: To determine the effects of selenium, melatonin and selenium + melatonin administered for one month on anterior chamber (AC ) malondialdehyde (MDA) and AC glutathione (GSH) levels in patients with Ocular ischemic syndrome. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Thirtyfive patients were included in the study. Study groups were formed as follows: 1-Control group, 2-Ischemia group 3-Selenium Ischemia group, 4-Melatonin Ischemia group, 5-Selenium + Melatonin + Ischemia group. AC samples were obtained. MDA and GSH levels in AC samples were evaluated. RESULTS : MDA levels were significantly increased in ischemia groups. Selenium and melatonin supplementation resulted in reduction of MDA levels and significant increase in GSH values. DISCUSSION: Increased lipid peroxidation associated with ischemia of the anterior segment has been prevented by selenium and melatonin supplementation. KEYWORDS: Ocular ischemic syndrome, selenium, melatonin, MDA, GSH

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • To determine the effects of selenium on anterior chamber (AC ) malondialdehyde (MDA) and AC glutathione (GSH) levels in patients with Ocular ischemic syndrome

    The patients were supplemented with oral selenium at 0.1mg/kg doses twice daily for one month. After selenium supplementation period was completed, 0.1 cc samples were obtained from the anterior chamber (AC). And then determine AC Malondialdehyde (MDA) and Glutathione (GSH) levels.

    The patients were supplemented with oral selenium for one month.

  • To determine the effects of melatonin on anterior chamber (AC ) malondialdehyde (MDA) and AC glutathione (GSH) levels in patients with Ocular ischemic syndrome

    The patients in this group were supplemented with oral melatonin 0.5 mg/kg/day doses twice daily for one month. After supplementation was completed 0.1 cc sampling from AC. And then determine AC Malondialdehyde (MDA) and Glutathione (GSH) levels.

    The patients were supplemented with oral melatonin for one month.
