Overview of Epidemiologic Studies of Diabetic Retinopathy
TL;DR: Although there have been advances in understanding the distribution, causes, and severity of diabetic retinopathy, this is ever changing and requires continued monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
TL;DR: Data suggest that hyperglycemia and, possibly, high blood pressure are related to proliferative retinopathy and suggest that diabetic patients and their physicians should be aware of the need for routine ophthalmological examinations to detect and treat proliferative Retinopathy.

Diabetic eye disease

TL;DR: Clinicians and patients must be aware of the need for early detection of diabetic retinopathy by a thorough examination through a fully dilated pupil, to assess whether prompt treatment is needed to prevent loss of vision, and they should be skilled in their ability to diagnose the severity of diabetic Retinopathy.

Deep learning algorithms for detection of diabetic retinopathy in retinal fundus photographs: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: DL algorithms had high sensitivity and specificity for detecting referable DR from retinal fundus photographs, which showed that a DL-based automated tool offers substantial benefits to reduce screening costs, accessibility to healthcare and ameliorate earlier treatments.

TL;DR: The awareness, knowledge and attitude of the consumers, availability of skilled human resources and infrastructure emerged as the major barriers to access to DRS in any income setting, especially in the low-income settings with the rising prevalence of DR.

The Health Belief Model and Preventive Health Behavior
TL;DR: The present paper is confined to the first of these areas health behavior, where hardly anyone can be found who, upon intensive questioning, would report himself free of all symptoms.

The Wisconsin Epidemiologic Study of Diabetic Retinopathy: II. Prevalence and Risk of Diabetic Retinopathy When Age at Diagnosis Is Less Than 30 Years
TL;DR: In a population-based study in southern Wisconsin, 996 insulin-taking, younger-onset diabetic persons were examined using standard protocols to determine the prevalence and severity of diabetic retinopathy and associated risk variables.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Wisconsin epidemiologic study of diabetic retinopathy. III. Prevalence and risk of diabetic retinopathy when age at diagnosis is 30 or more years.
TL;DR: The severity of retinopathy was found to be related to longer duration of diabetes, younger age at diagnosis, higher glycosylated hemoglobin levels, higher systolic BP, use of insulin, presence of proteinuria, and small body mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photocoagulation for diabetic macular edema.
TL;DR: As part of the ongoing monitoring of the 23 clinics in this study, it is discovered that one of the clinics was not carefully following the study protocol, and their data cannot be considered comparable with data from the other clinics.
