Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAge-Based Association of Glaucoma with the Prevalence of Diabetes and Hypertension at a National Hospital in SeoulSun Jung Lee, Tae Su Jang, Jae Kyung KimGlaucoma can have profound consequences on vision. Although diabetes and hypertension have been suggested as risk factors for glaucoma, their relevance in epidemiological studies remains controversial. Accordingly, we investigated whether diabetes and hypertension, as well as factors such as age and sex, affected the risk of glaucoma. From May 30, 2022, to June 24, 2022, 1152 patients were selected from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 5 May 2023 · 5,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe -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
Literature ReviewOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe 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 accessEvery word in the titleA MODIFIED SPATIAL FUZZY C-MEANS CLUSTERING ALGORITHM FOR DETECTING GLAUCOMAIN RETINAL FUNDUS IMAGESS. J. Grace Shoba, A. Brintha ThereseGlaucoma is a disease which affects the eye and causes blindness. It is an ophthalmologist disease characterized by an increase in Intraocular Pressure (IOP). The glaucoma usually affects the optic disc on the retina which increases the cup size. There are various parameters to identify and diagnose glaucoma. The clustering technique is introduced to detect the glaucoma from the optic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 5 Mar 2014 · 7,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF GRAY LEVEL CO-OCCURRENCE MATRIX TEXTURE FEATURES FOR GLAUCOMA DIAGNOSISSakthivel Karthikeyan, N. RengarajanGlaucoma is a multifactorial optic neuropathy disease characterized by elevated Intra Ocular Pressure (IOP). As the visual loss caused by the disease is irreversible, early detection is essential. Fundus images are used as input and it is preprocessed using histogram equalization. First order features from histogram and second order features from Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) are extracted from the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 24 Dec 2013 · 7,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptic Disc Segmentation in Fundus Images with Deep Learning Object DetectorManal AlGhamdiThe Optic Disc (OD) is an important anatomical landmark in the fundus image to diagnose a myriad of diseases, such as glaucoma and Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) and to locate structures such as the macula and the main vascular arcade. However, locating and segmenting the OD are not easy tasks. Previous methods have employed a deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) without … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 14 May 2020 · 7,372 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
