A Mathematical Model to Predict Endothelial Cell Density Following Penetrating Keratoplasty With Selective Dropout From Graft Failure [Cornea]

Conclusions. Endothelial cell loss after PK can be modeled via a log-polynomial model, which accounts for the correlated data from repeated measures on the same subject. This model is not significantly affected by the selective dropout due to graft failure. Our findings warrant further study on how this may extend to ECD following endothelial keratoplasty.
