The diagnostic accuracy of an intelligent and automated fundus disease image assessment system with lesion quantitative function (SmartEye) in diabetic patients

TL;DR: SmartEye quantitative analysis may be an innovative and promising method of DR diagnosis and grading and has a high diagnostic accuracy in DR screening program using non-mydriatic fundus cameras.

Direct medical cost associated with diabetic retinopathy severity in type 2 diabetes in Singapore

TL;DR: The results suggest that preventing progression of DR may reduce the economic burden of DR, and the presence and severity of DR was associated with increased direct medical costs in T2DM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinal vasculature classification using novel multifractal features.

TL;DR: New methods for feature extraction from multifractal spectra of retinal vessels for classification with multiple fractal features are introduced and experiments show that classification accuracy can be affected by the accuracy of vessel segmentation algorithms.

An intelligible deep convolution neural network based approach for classification of diabetic retinopathy

TL;DR: The proposed deep CNN architecture is a promising tool for diabetic retinopathy image classification with significant results with 93% area under the curve (AUC) for the Kaggle dataset and 91% AUC for the Messidor dataset.

Association of visceral adiposity index with incident nephropathy and retinopathy: a cohort study in the diabetic population

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper evaluated the longitudinal association of VAI and Chinese VAI (CVAI) with the incidence of diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy using a Chinese cohort.

The Wisconsin epidemiologic study of diabetic retinopathy. VI: Retinal photocoagulation

TL;DR: Seventy-two percent of eyes of younger onset and 45% of Eyes of older onset persons that had received panretinal photocoagulation treatment were found to have incomplete regression of retinal new vessels, and in approximately half of these eyes severe proliferative retinopathy (Diabetic Retinopathy Study High Risk Characteristics [DRS-HRC]) was present.

TL;DR: Data from the Diabetic Retinopathy Study (DRS) show that photocoagulad inhibited the progression of retinopathy, and beneficial effects were noted to some degree in all those stages of diabeticretinopathy which were included in the Study.

The Wisconsin Epidemiologic Study of Diabetic Retinopathy: IX. Four-Year Incidence and Progression of Diabetic Retinopathy When Age at Diagnosis Is Less Than 30 Years

TL;DR: This paper performed a population-based study in southern Wisconsin of insulin-taking diabetic persons diagnosed before 30 years of age and found that the incidence of proliferative retinopathy rose with increasing duration until 13 to 14 years of diabetes, thereafter remaining between 14% and 17%.

The Reproducibility of a Method to Identify the Overuse and Underuse of Medical Procedures

TL;DR: A parallel, three-way replication of the RAND-University of California at Los Angeles appropriateness method as applied to two medical procedures, coronary revascularization and hysterectomy, found that the appropri ateness method is far from perfect.
