Case ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn Unusual Case of Pyrexia with BlindnessNaveen, Bharat Bhushan Sharma, Annu Kumari Saw, Akash ParuthiPyrexia is a common clinical problem; causes may vary depending on the clinico- epidemiological settings. Infectious diseases form the most common cause of fever especially in the immunocompromised category. The cause may not be obvious from the initial presentation and a stepwise workup is usually required. Potential diagnostic clues are very important in this regard. Our patient had a fever … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 2 Dec 2024 · 4,932 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptiCNN: Local thresholding segmentation and CNN with SVM Approach for Diabetic Retinopathy Detection and Classification of Fundus ImagesAnju Mishra, Mrinal Pandey, Laxman SinghDiabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a progressive eye disease that can lead to vision loss and blindness if left untreated. Ophthalmologists diagnose DR using medical imaging modalities such as fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT); however, manual interpretation of these images is time-consuming and subject to inter-observer variability. While DR is irreversible, vision loss can be prevented through early detection … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 15 Dec 2025 · 2,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransforming Retinal Diagnostics: Advanced Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy Using Vision Transformers and Capsule NetworksVishal Sharma, Rishu, Vinay Kukreja et al.Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), nowadays is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide, it is a severe complication of diabetes mellitus that affects the retina blood vessels. Accurate diagnosis depends on early detection of DR. The study aims to develop a hybrid model that is the combination of a Vision Transformer and Capsule Network (ViT-CapsNet) to classify the DR at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 14 Jan 2025 · 6,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiabetic Retinopathy Detection using Deep Learning TechniquesAswin Shriram Thiagarajan, Jithendran Adikesavan, Santhi Balachandran, Brindha Ganapathyagraharam RamamoorthyDiabetic Retinopathy is a type of eye condition induced by diabetes, which damages the blood vessels in the retinal region and the area covered with lesions of varying magnitude determines the severity of the disease. It is one of the most leading causes of blindness amongst the employed community. A variety of factors are observed to play a role in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 13 Mar 2020 · 10,272 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of the Progress in Corneal Neovascularization Animal ModelsShuci Tian, Shurong Wang, Yuxi He et al.Corneal Neovascularization (CNV), the extensive growth of blood vessels from conjunctiva into the cornea. It is a sight-threatening condition that can decreases eyesight and even leads to blindness. The pathologic growth of blood vessels impairs light transmission, promotes scar formation and causes inflammations, which harm visual acuity. Abnormal angiogenesis plays an important role in the process of CNV, which may … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2015 · 8,421 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Glucocorticoids on Trabecular Meshwork and its Role in GlaucomaAlina GenisPrimary Open-Angle Glaucoma (POAG), an optic neuropathy that is a leading cause of irreversible blindness, has been studied extensively in hopes of better understanding its underlying mechanism. Glucocorticoids (GC) are commonly used to treat inflammatory ocular conditions but are also known to increase the risk of glaucoma by raising Intraocular Pressure (IOP) in susceptible individuals, leading to steroid-induced glaucoma. Based … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 14 Oct 2015 · 8,219 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 abstractMesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation for Retinal Degenerations and Dystrophies: Present and FutureEmma Ghazaryan, Shurong Wang, Yan Zhang et al.Retinal degenerations are the main causes of irreversible blindness in developed countries.
