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.

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
Objective To investigate the features of ocular fundus of retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED) in Chinese patients more than 50. Methods The clinical data of 31 continuous patients (34 eyes) with PED diagnosed by ocular fundus photochromy, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and indocyanine green angiography ( ICGA ) from Oct, 2001 to Aug, 2004 were analyzed retrospectively. Results In 34 eyes with PED, the results of FFA showed serous PED in 18 (52.9%), hemorrhagic PED in 8 (23.5%), and serosanguineous PED in 8 (23.5%); the results of ICGA revealed PED associated with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in 12 (35.3%), PED associated with ploypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) in 17 (50.0%), PED associated with both CNV and PCV in 1 (2.9%), and avascular PED in 4 (11.8%). Conclusions PED in Chinese patients more than 50 can be associated with CNV, PCV or other avascular diseases, and PCV is the most common intercurrent choroidal vascular disease.

Purpose To investigate the clinical features and pathogenesis of acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy(APMPPE). Methods To observe the features in 8 eyes of 6 cases of APMPPE with fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA) and indocyanine green angiography(ICGA).One of the cases had been observed continuously for 160 days. Results 1.FFA: at the acute stage of APMPPE,the affected foci showed low fluorescence in the early phase and stained gradually in 3 eyes;the fluorescence of recessive foci were still lower in 4 eyes,and the stale one showed window defect fluorescence due to some RPE fading and fluorescence sheltering due to pigment deposit.2.ICGA:at acuted stage,the fluorescence of choroid lobules was ofen defected untill in late period of pathogenical changes. Conclusion The findings demonstrate the obstruction of choriocapillaries may be the primary pathogenesis of APMPPE. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1998,14:84-87)
ObjectiveTo observe the features of the manifestations of fundus fluorescein angiography （FFA） in multiple sclerosis （MS） and their value in clinical diagnosis.MethodsThe clinical data of 42 patients (84 eyes) with MS diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and examination of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical data included visual acuity, ocular fundus examined by direct ophthalmoscope after mydriasis, FFA, visual field, CSF，visual evoked potential (VEP) and MRI examination.ResultsIn 42 patients (84 eyes),the positive detectable rate of examination of direct ophthalmoscope, CSF, visual field, VEP, and MRI was 36.9%, 21.4%, 71.4%, and 83.3% respectively. Abnormal results of FFA were found in 44 eyes (52.38%), including papillitis in 4 eyes（4.76%）at the early stage with extended physiological scotoma and central scotoma; neuroretinitis in 7 eyes （8.33%）at the medium stage with central or para-central scotoma; optic atrophy in 33 eyes（39.29%） at the late stage with centripetal constriction and even tubular visual field. ConclusionThe main angiographic features of MS are papillitis, neuroretinitis and optic atrophy. The manifestations of FFA combined with the results of examination of CSF，visual field, VEP and MRI is helpful for comprehensive and exact diagnosis of MS.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:300-302)

Microaneurysm is the initial symptom of diabetic retinopathy. Eliminating this lesion can effectively prevent diabetic retinopathy in the early stage. However, due to the complex retinal structure and the different brightness and contrast of fundus image because of different factors such as patients, environment and acquisition equipment, the existing detection algorithms are difficult to achieve the accurate detection and location of the lesion. Therefore, an improved detection algorithm of you only look once (YOLO) v4 with Squeeze-and-Excitation networks (SENet) embedded was proposed. Firstly, an improved and fast fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm was used to optimize the anchor parameters of the target samples to improve the matching degree between the anchors and the feature graphs; Then, the SENet attention module was embedded in the backbone network to enhance the key information of the image and suppress the background information of the image, so as to improve the confidence of microaneurysms; In addition, an spatial pyramid pooling was added to the network neck to enhance the acceptance domain of the output characteristics of the backbone network, so as to help separate important context information; Finally, the model was verified on the Kaggle diabetic retinopathy dataset and compared with other methods. The experimental results showed that compared with other YOLOv4 network models with various structures, the improved YOLOv4 network model could significantly improve the automatic detection results such as F-score which increased by 12.68%; Compared with other network models and methods, the automatic detection accuracy of the improved YOLOv4 network model with SENet embedded was obviously better, and accurate positioning could be realized. Therefore, the proposed YOLOv4 algorithm with SENet embedded has better performance, and can accurately and effectively detect and locate microaneurysms in fundus images.
