The gut microbiome plays an important role in the regulation of low-grade chronic inflammation in different parts of the body including the eye.

A systematic review of primary studies was conducted that quantified corneal sub-basal nerve plexus parameters using laser scanning <i>in vivo</i> corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) and DPN+ in at least five humans with diabetes mellitus. CCM parameters examined were corneal nerve fibre density (NFD), nerve branch density (NBD) and nerve fibre length (NFL). Weighted mean difference (±standard error) is reported. Twenty-six studies were included in this meta-analysis (18 for T1DM, 14 for T2DM). This comprised 1,357 participants with T1DM (573,784; DPN+, DPN-), 1,119 with T2DM (598,521; DPN+, DPN-) and 1,032 non-diabetic controls. Compared to T2DM, T1DM participants had larger differences in NFD (8.54 ± 0.83 vs 3.61 ± 0.41), NBD (11.92 ± 1.93 vs 3.56 ± 1.03) and NFL (4.24 ± 0.41 vs 1.65 ± 0.18) between DPN+ and DPN- groups.
