Plus in order to compare the aging phenome- non under multi-stress conditions, additional EPR cable samples were aged by rated AC voltage and current with switching impulses superimposed. We used measurements of partial discharge parameters to monitor the cables’ conditions during their aging process, and the AC breakdown voltages measurement to evaluate the cables after aging. Moreover, the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy measurements revealed the changes of insulation materials after aging. The measurement results confirm that the accelerated aging of cable samples had taken place. The impacts of each individual aging factor are shown through the selected measurements and comparison. The study also helps to assess the reliability of the XLPE and EPR cables under similar condition while serving in power systems.展开更多

METHODS: Thirty-six patients who had to undergo a 25 gauge pars plana vitrectomy due to vitreoretinal disorders were enrolled, 15 of them underwent a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy 7 d before vitrectomy due to posterior capsule opacification(PCO)(Nd:YAG laser group) while the remaining 21 patients were not laser treated before vitrectomy(no Nd:YAG laser group). Samples of the aqueous and vitreous humors were collected during vitrectomy from all patients for the assessment of oxidative parameters which were compared between the Nd:YAG laser group and no Nd:YAG laser group. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS), a product of membrane lipid peroxidation, nitrite levels, the antioxidative activities of SOD and catalase, the 4-HNE-protein conjugate formation, indicating structural modifications in proteins due to lipoperoxidation, were assessed in aqueous and vitreous samples. RESULTS: In the human vitreous humor TBARS levels are significantly higher in the Nd:YAG laser group compared to the no Nd:YAG laser group and importantly, there is a significant correlation between the TBARS levels and the total energy of Nd:YAG laser used during capsulotomy.Moreover the anti-oxidative activities of SOD and catalase were significantly decreased by Nd:YAG laser treatment, both in aqueous and vitreous humors. In accordance with the TBARS data and anti-oxidative enzyme activities, significantly higher levels of proteins were conjugated with the lipoperoxidation product 4-HNE in the aqueous and vitreous humors in the Nd:YAG laser-treated group in comparison to no Nd:YAG laser group. CONCLUSION: These data, clearly suggest that any change that Q-switched Nd:YAG photo disruption may cause in the aqueous and vitreous compartments, resulting in a higher level of oxidative damage might be of considerable clinical significance particularly by accelerating the aging of the anterior and posterior segments of the eye and by worsening the intraocular pressure, the uveal, the retinal(especially macular) pathologies.展开更多
