Trace elements of Cu, Fe, Zn, Mg, and Se in Tibetan cataractous lenses and also in local samples of earth, drinking water, and staple foods were analyzed to estimate the possible relationship between environmental factors and primary cataract formation in Tibet. The Fe, Mg and Se contents in Tibetan cataracts were significantly lower in comparison with levels in those of Chengdu area, particularly the Se contents were low in both cataracts and local environment, suggesting a probable correlation between cataract formation and low Se contents in food and water.
对西藏白内障晶状体以及当地土壤、饮用水和主食样本中的铜、铁、锌、镁和硒等微量元素进行了分析,以评估环境因素与西藏原发性白内障形成之间的可能关系。与成都地区相比,西藏白内障中的铁、镁和硒含量显著较低,特别是白内障和当地环境中的硒含量均较低,这表明白内障形成与食物和水中低硒含量之间可能存在关联。
