Vitreous MIF levels and clinical findings (2)

+ −
Vitreous haemorrhage 11.93 (4.16–103.85) 12.99 (6.76–40.55)
(n=26) (n=6)
Rubeotic glaucoma 30.24 (24.71–103.85) 11.19 (4.16–70.15)
(n=3) (n=29)

  • ↵All values indicate vitreous MIF levels given as the median (range) ng/ml.

  • ↵NS = no significant difference was found (p=0.4991).

  • ↵p<0.05. MIF levels were significantly greater in eyes with rubeotic glaucoma than in eyes without it (p=0.0217).
