We observed disruptions in the ellipsoid zone (EZ) and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) across different retinal regions. Principal component analysis (PCA) was employed to identify the most significant factors associated with visual deterioration.Results: Among the 120 eyes included in the study, HCQ retinopathy was present in 42 eyes (35.0%). In patients with mild-to-moderate retinopathy, the pericentral pattern was predominant (75.0%), whereas no parafoveal pattern was observed. Serial examinations revealed that lesions typically progressed from pericentral to parafoveal and foveal regions. EZ disruption was observed in all affected cases, most frequently at the pericentral region (100%), followed by the perifoveal (87.4%), parafoveal (72.1%), and foveal (43.2%) regions. RPE disruption was noted in 59.5% of cases, with the highest prevalence at the pericentral (53.2%) and perifoveal (52.3%) regions, followed by the parafoveal (33.3%) and foveal (28.8%) regions. PCA identified RPE disruption at the fovea and parafoveal regions as the most strongly correlated factors for visual deterioration.Conclusions: In Taiwanese patients, HCQ retinopathy predominantly manifests with pericentral lesions, while isolated parafoveal lesions are rare as an initial presentation. RPE disruption, rather than EZ disruption, appears to be the primary determinant for visual deterioration in this population.","PeriodicalId":44978,"journal":{"name":"Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology","volume":"14 4","pages":"565-572"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11717340/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142972554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Imaging over the patient's clinical course from 2019 was reviewed. A 74-year-old female presented with left submacular hemorrhage and a large multi-lobular pigment epithelial detachment. Left eye vision was 6/19 at the presentation. Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) revealed underlying PCV. One month after initiation of intravitreal aflibercept (IVA, Bayer), she developed fresh subretinal hemorrhage. An RPE tear of 1 disc area in size, centered over the fovea was diagnosed. The torn RPE edge was scrolled up temporal to the fovea on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), with hypertransmission into the choroid observed over the area of RPE loss. Left eye vision after the RPE tear was 6/15. Over the next 2 months, the subretinal hemorrhage resolved following further IVA. At month 3, fundus autofluorescence (FAF) demonstrated hypo-autofluorescence while fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and ICGA showed a window defect corresponding to the area of RPE tear. On SD-OCT, there was a faint hyper-reflective layer where one might expect the RPE layer to be. Serial SD-OCT scans over 5 years revealed increasing prominence of the hyperreflective layer between the ellipsoid zone and Bruch's membrane. FAF remained hypo-autofluorescent. At the last review, the patient retained 6/9 vision. We report a case of fovea-involving RPE tear documented with multimodal imaging with good visual outcome, which is atypical. Serial OCT suggests tissue remodeling may explain the functional preservation.","PeriodicalId":44978,"journal":{"name":"Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology","volume":"14 4","pages":"614-618"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11717326/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142972698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

EHRs offer a wealth of structured and unstructured data, allowing for comprehensive analyses of patient characteristics, treatment histories, and outcomes. This review comprehensively discusses different EHR data sources, their strengths, limitations, and applicability towards glaucoma research. Institutional EHR repositories provide detailed multimodal clinical data, enabling in-depth investigations into conditions such as glaucoma and facilitating the development of artificial intelligence applications. Multicenter initiatives such as the Sight Outcomes Research Collaborative and the Intelligent Research In Sight registry offer larger, more diverse datasets, enhancing the generalizability of findings and supporting large-scale studies on glaucoma epidemiology, treatment outcomes, and practice patterns. The All of Us Research Program, with a special emphasis on diversity and inclusivity, presents a unique opportunity for glaucoma research by including underrepresented populations and offering comprehensive health data even beyond the EHR. Challenges persist, such as data access restrictions and standardization issues, but may be addressed through continued collaborative efforts between researchers, institutions, and regulatory bodies. Standardized data formats and improved data linkage methods, especially for ophthalmic imaging and testing, would further enhance the utility of EHR datasets for ophthalmic research, ultimately advancing our understanding and treatment of glaucoma and other ocular diseases on a global scale.","PeriodicalId":44978,"journal":{"name":"Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology","volume":"14 3","pages":"352-359"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11488813/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142477192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide, glaucoma is an ocular disease that receives significant interest for developing innovations in eye care. Among the most vital sources of data in glaucoma is visual field (VF) testing, which stands as a cornerstone for diagnosing and managing the disease. The expanding accessibility of large VF databases has led to a surge in studies investigating various applications of big data analytics in glaucoma. In this study, we review the use of big data for evaluating the reliability of VF tests, gaining insights into real-world clinical practices and outcomes, understanding new disease associations and risk factors, characterizing the patterns of VF loss, defining the structure-function relationship of glaucoma, enhancing early diagnosis or earlier detection of progression, informing clinical decisions, and improving clinical trials.

First, we selected thirty patients with 120 digital fundus pictures to perform the Kappa index by two eye doctors who would be responsible for the DR clinical feature evaluation and DR severity scale classification. Second, all digital fundus pictures were coded and then sent to the two above-mentioned eye doctors for the evaluation and classifications according to the International Committee of Ophthalmology's guidelines. Finally, DR severity scales with EyeArt were compared with those by eye doctors as a reference standard for EyeArt's effectiveness. All the data were analyzed using the SPSS software version 20.0. Values (with confidence interval 95%) of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy were calculated according to DR state, referable or not and vision-threatening DR state or not.
