中文摘要 | 目的:本篇主要是探討正常族群淚功能指數(Tear Function Index, TFI)及其 與年齡之相關性。 方法:本研究共收集 105 位正常受試者(包括 56 位男性,49 位女性), 年齡分佈由 22 歲到 81 歲,平均年齡, 男性 47.0 歲, 女性 49.5 歲。 分別作點過麻藥後的 Schirmer test 和測量淚液排除速率( Tear Clearance Rate, TCR ), 並以此計算出淚功能指數( TFI )之值。 結果:本研究結果發現 TFI,TCR 和 Schirmer test 值, 都與性別無關,但均與年齡有明 顯相關(p 值均小於 0.01 )。若根據 Tsubota 等人所提建議值,TFI<96 可能是乾眼患者 , TFI<34 可能是 Sjogren Syndrome 患者來界定, 我們的正常受試者,將分別有 78.1 % 和 57.1% 可能落入此界定內,此明顯與上述研究結果抵觸。 結論: 正常人的 TFI 值會隨年齡增加而降低, 但是用來評估乾眼症和 Sjogren Syndrome 的界定值,則需進一步評估。 |
英文摘要 | Purpose. The study sought to evaluate the Tear Function Index(TFI) in normal subjects and determine the changes of TFI with respect to aging. Methods. One hundred and five normal subjects (male 56, female 49; aged 22-81 years) underwent examinations of the Schirmer test with anesthesia and the Tear Clearance Rate (TCR). The value of TFI was obtained from dividing the value of Schirmer test by TCR. Results. The correlation of Schirmer test value, TCR or TFI was not significantly correlated with gender; but all were significantly correlated with age (all p<0.01). According to the criteria defined by Xu and Tsubota, the TFIs < 96 were considered to be related to dry eye while those < 34 related to Sjogren syndrome. If the cutoff values of their criteria were followed, 78.1% and 57.1% of normal subjects in this study would fall into these two categories, dry eye and Sjogren syndrome, respectively. Conclusions. It appears that TFI value declined with aging processes; however, the cutoff values for dry eye and Sjogren syndrome may merit further evaluation. |
