Aqueous humour assay values in experimental groups (II)
| Group | Mean (SEM) (ng/ml) | |
|---|---|---|
| TIMP-1 | CTGF | |
| The group means were compared and analysed using Fisher’s PLSD test and Bonferroni/Dunn test after one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated a significant difference (StatView, SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). | ||
| *p <0.01 compare with control (significant for both Fisher’s PLSD and Bonferroni/Dunn tests). | ||
| TIMP-1, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1; CTGF, connective tissue growth factor; PXF, pseudoexfoliation syndrome. | ||
| PXF without glaucoma | 8.84 (1.34)* (n = 37) | 2.73 (0.45) (n = 18) |
| PXF with glaucoma | 11.55 (1.88)* (n = 19) | 6.03 (1.09)* (n = 18) |
| Control | 5.73 (0.43) (n = 112) | 2.35 (0.46) (n = 29) |
