Methods All the images were obtained from the hospital for training and 10-fold cross-validation. Two methods were used to improve the classification performance: (1) using images labelled with the additional results of OCT as the reference standard and (2) generating models using retinal features from the entire images, the region of interest (ROI) of the optic disc, and the ROI of the macula, and the combination of all the features. Results Overall, we collected 1338 images with paired OCT scans. In 10-fold validation, ARIA achieved sensitivities of 92.2 %, 92.7% and 85.7%, specificities of 88.8%, 86.7% and 80.2% and accuracies of 90.6%, 89.9% and 83.1% using the retinal features from the entire images, the ROI of the optic disc and the ROI of the macula, respectively. We found the model combining all the features has the best classification performance and obtained a sensitivity of 92.5%, a specificity of 92.1% and an accuracy of 92.4%, which is significantly different from other models (p<0.001). Conclusion We used two methods to improve the classification performance and found the best model to detect glaucoma on colour fundus retinal images. It can become a cost-effective and relatively more accurate glaucoma screening tool than conventional methods.

Regarding oscillatory potentials (OPs), the amplitudes of OP1, OP2 and OP3 as well as the sum of DA 3 OP1-4 amplitudes (∑OPs) showed significant changes (p<0.01 for all) between two groups. No peak time delay of OPs was found between the ischaemic and non-ischaemic CRVO eyes.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The amplitude of DA 0.01 ERG, components of LA 3 ERG and LA 30 Hz flicker ERG, and the b/a amplitude ratio could be among the most sensitive indicators in patients with acute ischaemic CRVO. The amplitudes of OP1, OP2, OP3 and ∑OPs in the CRVO eyes were reduced to 40% of the control values, showing that this quantitative method is reliable for detecting ischaemic retinal diseases, even in early stage.</p>","PeriodicalId":9286,"journal":{"name":"BMJ Open Ophthalmology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11331877/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141981772","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}
