Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe -863 TNF-α Polymorphism and Primary Open Angle Glaucoma in EgyptiansWalaa Bayoumie Abdulwahhab El Gazzar, Shaymaa Mohamed Abd El Rahman, Mohamed Nagy Elmohamady et al.Growing evidence indicates that TNF-alpha is involved in the pathogenesis of POAG in several ways, primarly by induction of retinal ganglion cells apoptosis and therefore optic nerve degeneration. TNF-alpha and POAG relationship has been studied at the genetic level with variable results in different populations. The transcription rate and the release of the TNF-alpha cytokine have been reported to be … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 1 Jun 2017 · 7,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Economic System for Screening of Diabetic Retinopathy Using Fundus ImagesG.S. Annie Grace Vimala, S. Kaja MohideenDelayed length of time of the diabetes may influence the tiny blood vessels of the retina bringing about Diabetic Retinopathy (DR). It is one of the major root causes of the blindness across the globe. Routine eye screening of patients with diabetes serves to discover DR at the early stage. The conventional visual assessment protocol is time consuming and laborious. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 5 Jan 2015 · 6,909 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Approach for Diagnosing Diabetic Retinopathy in Fundus ImagesE. Dhiravidachelvi, V. RajamaniIn recent years the medical profession has seen an ever increasing demand for diagnosis and a permanent cure for illnesses caused by climatic-changes, unwholesome food and environmental pollution. Also the appearances of hitherto unknown viral diseases have caused eye diseases, which have prompted surgeons to monitor the health of the eyes. Potential new therapies that may help in preserving sight … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 21 Aug 2014 · 6,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA COMPARATIVE STUDY FOR RHODOPSIN PROTEIN FOLDING PROBLEMIman Ahmed Mahmoud, Amr Ahmed Badr, Mostafa Abdel AzimProteins are very important components in any living cells. A number of diseases such as Retinitis pigmentosa, Stargadt-like macular degeneration and Doyne Honeycomb Retinal Dystrophy (DHRD) diseases are shown to result from misfunctioning of proteins. Protein folding problem is a way to predict the best and optimal 3D molecular structure (tertiary structure) of a protein which is then considered to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 May 2014 · 7,071 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBLOOD VESSELS EXTRACTION USING MATHEMATICAL MORPHOLOGYNidhal Khdhair El Abbadi, Enas Hamood Al SaadiThe retinal vasculature is composed of the arteries and veins with their tributaries which are visible within the retinal image. The segmentation and measurement of the retinal vasculature is of primary interest in the diagnosis and treatment of a number of systemic and ophthalmologic conditions. The accurate segmentation of the retinal blood vessels is often an essential prerequisite step in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 12 Sep 2013 · 7,095 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVEMENT OF AUTOMATIC HEMORRHAGES DETECTION METHODS USING SHAPES RECOGNITIONNidhal Khdhair El Abbadi, Enas Hamood Al SaadiDiabetic Retinopathy is a medical condition where the retina is damaged because fluid leaks from blood vessels into the retina. The presence of hemorrhages in the retina is the earliest symptom of diabetic retinopathy. The number and shape of hemorrhages is used to indicate the severity of the disease. Early automated hemorrhage detection can help reduce the incidence of blindness. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,486 accessesView PDFCite
