Generation of chemiluminescence in experimental autoimmune uveitis.

abstract：PURPOSE:Hypercarbia has been suggested as a risk factor for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). We investigated the effect of hypercarbia on the retinal vasculature of the neonatal rat to determine whether hypercarbia alone could induce preretinal neovascularization analogous to ROP. METHODS:In a preliminary blood gas s...
