Corneal grafts from younger donors had significantly better evaluation than those of older donors. The mean time of the evaluation change was on the 5th day in 50% of the corneas, however, an expressive number of corneas suffered changes on the 6th, 7th and 8th day. Corneal graft preserved after 6 hours of death had a greater tendency to lower cell count and to decrease in evaluation grades.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
