Comparing CE and LPI Effects on ACA Parameters

The results of the prospective CE study were compared with previously published data from a prospective cohort study on ACA parameter changes before and after LPI from our group [19 (link)]. Only the 34 eyes of the 21 participants who completed the pre- and post- LPI study and had acceptable ASOCT images were included for comparison. A mixed-effect model was used to compare the treatment groups (CE vs. LPI). The fixed effect was the treatment group (CE vs. LPI), and the random effect was the study participants.
All statistical analysis was performed using SAS for Window v9.4 (SAS Inc., Cary, NC), with a P value less than 0.05 considered statistically significant. Data are available at https://figshare.com/articles/Data_for_PONE-D-16-07110_LE_vs_LPI_xlsx/3753303.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
