Carotid-Cavernous Fistulas (CCFs) are aberrant arteriovenous connections between the carotid arteries and the cavernous sinus. Although uncommon, they might manifest with subtle or deceptive symptoms, especially in young...

BackgroundCentral nervous system (CNS) relapse in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) may occur despite systemic remission and can present with isolated neuro-ophthalmologic symptoms. Early diagnosis may be challenging as...

Neuroretinitis (NR) depicts a clinical presentation of optic disc edema with subsequent development of macular edema. Pathogenesis is directly linked to inflammation of the optic nerve and early clinical diagnosis may be...

Estimating three-dimensional morphological traits such as volume from two-dimensional RGB images presents inherent challenges due to the loss of depth information, projection distortions, and occlusions under field condi...

We systematically evaluated the evidence for urgent venous sinus stenting (VSS) as a sight-saving strategy in fulminant idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), a rapidly progressive phenotype with imminent risk of ir...

The dynamic range limitation is intrinsic to conventional RGB cameras, which reduces global contrast and causes the loss of high-frequency details such as textures and edges in complex, dynamic traffic environments (e.g....

A metodologia de produção in vitro de embriões de ovinos implica no desenvolvimento de meios de maturação, fertilização e cultivo que permitam aumentar a taxa de clivagem e desenvolvimento, tanto para o investimen...

Pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) is a syndrome with increased intracranial pressure (>200 mmH2O) and characterized by headache, loss of vision and papiledema. Many drugs and diseases may lead to this clinical picture and Cyclos...

Abstract Multi-label chest X-ray classification faces three critical challenges: (i) inadequate modeling of inter-pathology dependencies despite clinical co-occurrence patterns, (ii) severe class imbalance (11.2−47.6...

ABSTRACT With the development of unmanned aerial vehicle and satellite technology, the application of tiny object detection in remote sensing images is becoming increasingly widespread. Although significant progress has ...

Benign–malignant classification of pulmonary nodules from chest computed tomography (CT) is essential for early lung cancer screening and for reducing unnecessary biopsies and follow-up examinations, yet it remains cha...

Abstract Background Rapid and accurate pest diagnosis is essential for reducing crop losses and improving agricultural productivity. Most existing methods rely on deep learning-based object detection to classify pests in...

In this research, we address a critical problem for strawberry growers in Lima: the management of phytosanitary diseases. Traditionally, these farmers relied on time-consuming, imprecise, and error-prone visual observati...

The paper presents an Arduino-based smart hand glove-like appliance that supports blind people. Due to vision loss, blind people have to tolerate their own inhabit. The work aims to enable unsighted people to move faster...

Purpose. We present a case series of retinitis pigmentosa associated with uveitis and share our clinical observations and insights on this co-occurrence. Materials and methods. This prospective, non-controlled case seri...

BackgroundHigh-dose intravenous methylprednisolone (HD-IVMP) is the first-line treatment for dysthyroid optic neuropathy (DON). However, a significant proportion of patients exhibit a poor response, risking irreversible ...

Abstract Stem cell-derived RPE replacement is a potential therapeutic for advanced AMD that is characterized by macular scarring and geographic atrophy leading to severe vision loss. Although the field of stem cell-diffe...

ABSTRACT Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration represents a cardinal etiology of irreversible vision loss in glaucoma, where efficacious regenerative therapies remain scarce. RGC replacement therapy holds promise for ...

Background: Community health workers (CHWs) play a crucial role in health promotion, particularly in rural areas. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a complication that can be prevented through timely screening. CHWs could as...

Relevance. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and glaucoma are currently the main causes of irreversible vision loss in developed countries. Purpose. To study the epidemiological and clinical-functional aspects of ...

Abstract Ocular neovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration, are characterized by abnormal angiogenesis, vascular leakage, and progressive retinal neurode...

Abstract Since age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible central vision loss in the aging population, it is a significant global health concern. Although anti-vascular endothelial growth...

IntroductionMacular Telangiectasia type 1 is a congenital vascular disorder primarily affecting males, characterized by unilateral exudative lesions on the temporal macula. Intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy is commonly used...

Background: A full-thickness macular hole (FTMH) causes central vision loss. Although modern vitrectomy techniques achieve high closure rates, functional recovery remained variable. Aim: This study aimed to describe th...
