Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 26 to 49 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Study population: All the study subjects underwent a full ophthalmological examination.The anterior segment parameter measurements were taken with optical biometry. Each subject was questioned in respect of how many years and how many times a day they used ST. Before taking the optical biometry measurements, the subjects were questioned as to whether they had used ST, drunk anything containing caffeine or smoked cigarettes in the previous 12 hours, and those who had were excluded from the study. Each subject was given 1mg ST and the optical biometry measurements were repeated after 5, 30 and 60 mins. A single measurement was performed with optical biometry in the control group. To avoid diurnal variations, the measurements were taken in the morning between 09.00 and 12.00 hours.

Who may be able to join

  • A subject who use ST
  • A subject who was not using ST

Who cannot join

  • Refractive disorder
  • Systemic chronic disease (diabetes, hypertension, neurological, etc.)
  • Ocular trauma
  • Ocular surgery
  • Glaucoma
  • Optic disc abnormalities
  • Congenital anomaly

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effect of Smokeless Tobacco on Anterior Segment Parameters

Observational, comparative, cross-sectional study

Read the detailed description

To evaluate the acute and chronic effects of smokeless tobacco (ST) on the anterior segment parameters using optical biometry. Observational, comparative, cross-sectional study Place and Duration of Study: Department of Ophthalmology, Kahramanmaras Sutcu Imam University.

The study included 53 right eyes of 53 subjects (study group), who used ST and 54 right eyes of 54 healthy subjects without ST (control group). Following a full ophthalmological examination, baseline measurements were taken with optical biometry and these measurements were repeated at 5, 30 and 60 mins after using ST.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Eye Manifestations and Tobacco; Use, Harmful, run by Kahramanmaras Sutcu Imam University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Central Corneal Thickness (CCT) (time frame: Baseline to 60 minutes after intervention). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Mar 2021.
