ObjectiveTo compare the consistency of artificial analysis and artificial intelligence analysis in the identification of fundus lesions in diabetic patients.MethodsA retrospective study. From May 2018 to May 2019, 1053 consecutive diabetic patients (2106 eyes) of the endocrinology department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were included in the study. Among them, 888 patients were males and 165 were females. They were 20-70 years old, with an average age of 53 years old. All patients were performed fundus imaging on diabetic Inspection by useing Japanese Kowa non-mydriatic fundus cameras. The artificial intelligence analysis of Shanggong's ophthalmology cloud network screening platform automatically detected diabetic retinopathy (DR) such as exudation, bleeding, and microaneurysms, and automatically classifies the image detection results according to the DR international staging standard. Manual analysis was performed by two attending physicians and reviewed by the chief physician to ensure the accuracy of manual analysis. When differences appeared between the analysis results of the two analysis methods, the manual analysis results shall be used as the standard. Consistency rate were calculated and compared. Consistency rate = (number of eyes with the same diagnosis result/total number of effective eyes collected) × 100%. Kappa consistency test was performed on the results of manual analysis and artificial intelligence analysis, 0.0≤κ＜0.2 was a very poor degree of consistency, 0.2≤κ＜0.4 meant poor consistency, 0.4≤κ＜0.6 meant medium consistency, and 0.6≤κ＜1.0 meant good consistency.ResultsAmong the 2106 eyes, 64 eyes were excluded that cannot be identified by artificial intelligence due to serious illness, 2042 eyes were finally included in the analysis. The results of artificial analysis and artificial intelligence analysis were completely consistent with 1835 eyes, accounting for 89.86%. There were differences in analysis of 207 eyes, accounting for 10.14%. The main differences between the two are as follows: (1) Artificial intelligence analysis points Bleeding, oozing, and manual analysis of 96 eyes (96/2042, 4.70%); (2) Artificial intelligence analysis of drusen, and manual analysis of 71 eyes (71/2042, 3.48%); (3) Artificial intelligence analyzes normal or vitreous degeneration, while manual analysis of punctate exudation or hemorrhage or microaneurysms in 40 eyes (40/2042, 1.95%). The diagnostic rates for non-DR were 23.2% and 20.2%, respectively. The diagnostic rates for non-DR were 76.8% and 79.8%, respectively. The accuracy of artificial intelligence interpretation is 87.8%. The results of the Kappa consistency test showed that the diagnostic results of manual analysis and artificial intelligence analysis were moderately consistent (κ=0.576, P＜0.01).ConclusionsManual analysis and artificial intelligence analysis showed moderate consistency in the diagnosis of fundus lesions in diabetic patients. The accuracy of artificial intelligence interpretation is 87.8%.
Objective To detect the value of three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound diagnosis in common ocular fundus diseases. Methods Two-dimensional (2D) images of 38 patients with common ocular fundus diseases were three-dimensionally reconstructed via 3D ultrasound workstation. The 3D images reflecting the ocular diseases were analyzed. Result In 38 patients with common ocular fundus diseases, there was vitreous hemorrhage in 16 patients, retinal detachment in 12, choroidal detachment in 5, and intraocular space occupying lesion in 5. Compared with the 2D images, 3D reconstructed images reflect the lesions more intuitionistically, displayed the relationship between the lesions and the peripheral tissues more clearly, and revealed the blood flow more specifically. During a scanning examination, 3D reconstructed technology provided the diagnostic information of section of X, Y and Z axises simultaneously which shortened the time of examination; the condition of any point of lesions and the relation between the lesion and the peripheral tissues could be gotten by the tools like cut and chop provided by 3D imaging software itself, which avoided detecting the same lesion with different angles and lays and proved the diagnostic efficacy. Conclusions 3D ultrasound diagnosis is better than 2D in diagnosis of vitreous, retina, choroid, and intraocular space occupying lesion. 3D ultrasound diagnosis is a complementarity for the 2D one, and the Z axis changes the former observational angles which may provide the new way of precise diagnosis.

ObjectiveTo explore the necessity, construction plans, and implementation methods for the establishment of a fundus disease-specific biobank are discussed. MethodsAn evidence-based medicine study. “Biobank”, “Disease-specific biobank”, “Eye diseases”, “Fundus disease” were hereby used as search terms. Literatures were retrieved related to biobank construction from PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang databases since their establishment until October 2023. Two researchers independently selected and analyzed literature, extracting data for further analysis. ResultsAfter screening, 23 articles were included, comprising 11 articles in Chinese and 12 articles in English, involving 23 institutions. The disease-specific biobank has been built earlier abroad than domestically. Both domestic and foreign biobank have a scale of less than 1, 1 to 10, and more than 10 thousand samples, with the eye disease-specific biobank having less than 10 thousand samples. The majority of these disease-specific biobank focued on tumor-related diseases and consist of both physical and information components. Ethical committees were required to declare and record the construction of biobank, and dedicated personnel and information management systems are established. Quality control systems have been developed with standard operating procedures from sample collection to storage. These disease-specific biobank effectively supported research projects, but there was a lack of resource sharing domestically compared to abroad. Based on practical experience, the construction of fundus disease-specific biobank at West China Hospital of Sichuan University has been improved. Separate sample collection processes have been formulated for outpatient clinics and operating rooms. Standard operating procedures have been established for unique eye samples, including vitreous fluid, proliferative membranes of the retina, aqueous humor, tears, etc., to ensure sample quality. ConclusionEstablishing a fundus disease-specific biobank can promote basic and clinical research, advance the development of translational medicine, achieve resource sharing, and foster discipline development.
Axon guidance molecules, slit glycoprotein (Slit) and Roundabout receptors (Robo) were firstly identified in the central neural system of Drosophila melanogaster. The Slit-Robo signal plays a crucial role in axon guidance, inflammation, tumor metastasis and angiogenesis, of which the role of Slit2-Robo pathway in angiogenesis has drawn a greater attention and still remains conflicting. Herein, we provide a review on the role of Slit2-Robo pathway in ocular angiogenesis and vascularization of other organs and systems. We hope this review will be the basis of further study on the mechanism of Slit2-Robo signaling on angiogenesis and provide new target for the therapy on ocular vascular disease
Objectives To analyze evidence-based medicine (EBM) related projects funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) from 2000 to 2019. Methods The online NSFC database, Internet-based Science Information System, Biomart.cn, and MedSci.com were searched to obtain all EBM grants funded by NSFC. The achievements, Chinese papers and SCI-indexed papers, were obtained by searching the database of CNKI, VIP, SinoMed, WanFang Data and Web of Science. All data screened and extracted manually, and then managed and analyzed with Microsoft Excel 2016 software. Results The NSFC has funded 94 projects regarding EBM, with a total amount of 44.763 million Yuan (RMB) since 2000. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong and Sichuan ranked highly in the number of projects and their undertaking institutions and total amount of fundings. General programs and youth scientist programs constituted the main parts of fundings. The funded projects mainly originated from three subjects of new technologies and methods of TCM, health management and policy, clinical basis of integrated Chinese and western medicine. General programs contributed the most articles, while the distinguished young scientist programs had the highest average outputs. Three papers from Chinese EBM Center were published on BMJ and were highly cited. Conclusions Support of NSFC on EBM has increased continuously for the last twenty years, but it is still below the average. The fundings are unbalanced in areas and institutions. The supported research fields change every year, and show a trend of subjects aggregation.
Based on the current situation of patients with retinal diseases in China and the clear requirements of the "14th Five-Year Plan for Eye Health (2021-2025)" to strengthen the construction of the prevention and control system for retinal diseases, experts in the field of retinal diseases in China have conducted in-depth and comprehensive thematic discussions, and used the modified Delphi method for collective decision-making and opinion solicitation, ultimately forming consensus and consistent guidance suggestions for the management of chronic diseases of retinal diseases that are in line with China's national conditions. This consensus includes key content such as definitions, treatment plans, and follow-up frequency for the management of chronic diseases of the fundus. It clearly proposes relevant measures to improve the management process of chronic diseases of the fundus, and elaborates on the advantages and feasibility of establishing an online remote platform for the management of chronic diseases of the fundus, in order to assist doctors in formulating personalized treatment plans and ensure that patients receive standardized treatment and follow-up. This consensus will provide guidance and reference for the management of chronic diseases and long-term standardized diagnosis and treatment of major fundus diseases in China.
Currently, as the key raw material of artificial biological heart valve, bovine pericardium is mainly depend on import and has become a “bottleneck” challenge, greatly limiting the development of domestic biological heart valve. Therefore, the localization of bovine pericardium is extremely urgent. In this study, the pericardium of Sichuan yak was compared with that of Australian cattle in terms of fundamental properties and anti-calcification performance. The results demonstrated that the appearance and thickness of yak pericardium were more advantageous than the Australian one. Sichuan yak pericardium and Australian cattle pericardium had comparable performance in shrinkage temperature, mechanical test and anti-calcification test. This study preliminarily verifies the feasibility of substitution of Australian cattle pericardium by Sichuan yak pericardium and promotes the progression of bovine pericardium localization with data support.
