Journal ArticleDOI
Protection by iodide of lens from selenite-induced cataract.
Konstantin Muranov,Nicolas Poliansky,Rudolf Winkler,G. Rieger,Otto Schmut,Jutta Horwath-Winter +5 more
TL;DR: There is a time-dependent protective influence of iodide against selenite cataract development and it is supposed that the anticataract effect of iodides could be based on direct or indirect antioxidant mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytotoxicity evaluation of soft contact lens care solutions on human conjunctival fibroblasts.
TL;DR: This in vitro study demonstrates that the examined soft contact lens care solutions induce changes in mitochondria of human conjunctival cells only at higher doses as observed by the MTT test, however, this damage to the mitochondria did not lead to cell death as shown by the cell analysis system.
Journal Article
TNF-α -308 G>A and -238 G>A polymorphisms are not major risk factors in Caucasian patients with exfoliation glaucoma
Georg Mossböck,Wilfried Renner,Yosuf El-Shabrawi,Christoph Faschinger,Otto Schmut,Andreas Wedrich,Christina Zimmermann,Martin Weger +7 more
TL;DR: Investigating a hypothesized association between two common functional polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene and the presence of XFG in a Caucasian population of Caucasian descent suggests that both of these polymorphisms are unlikely to be major risk factors for XFG.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of factor V Leiden and prothrombin 20210A in patients with retinal artery occlusion
Martin Weger,Wilfried Renner,Oliver Pinter,Olaf Stanger,Werner Temmel,P Fellner,Otto Schmut,Anton Haas +7 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that factor V Leiden and prothrombin 20210A do not play a major role in patients with retinal artery occlusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of the Interleukin-6 −174 G>C Gene Polymorphism in Retinal Artery Occlusion
Martin Weger,Iris Steinbrugger,Anton Haas,Winfried März,Yosuf El-Shabrawi,Wolfgang Weger,Otto Schmut,Wilfried Renner +7 more
TL;DR: The CC genotype of the IL-6 −174G>C polymorphism may be associated with a protective effect against RAO, and is suggested as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
