A CNN-LSTM Combination Network for Cataract Detection using Eye Fundus Images [PDF]
According to multiple authoritative authorities, including the World Health Organization, vision-related impairments and disorders are becoming a significant issue. According to a recent report, one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness in persons over the age of 50 is delayed cataract treatment.

Improving Adult Vision Through Pathway‐Specific Training in Augmented Reality
Traditional perceptual training approaches are limited by stimulus specificity, treatment efficacy, and patient compliance. A novel altered reality (AR) method is developed to enhance pathway‐specific functions in human adults while performing everyday activities.

Myotonic dystrophy type 1: A comparison between the adult‐ and late‐onset subtype
Abstract Introduction/Aims Although the extent of muscle weakness and organ complications has not been well studied in patients with late‐onset myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), adult‐onset DM1 is associated with severe muscle involvement and possible life‐threatening cardiac and respiratory complications.

Dynamic light scattering study on phase separation of a protein-water mixture: Application on cold cataract development in the ocular lens [PDF]
We present a detailed dynamic light scattering study on the phase separation in the ocular lens emerging during cold cataract development. Cold cataract is a phase separation effect that proceeds via spinodal decomposition of the lens cytoplasm with cooling.

Structure-consistent Restoration Network for Cataract Fundus Image Enhancement [PDF]
Fundus photography is a routine examination in clinics to diagnose and monitor ocular diseases. However, for cataract patients, the fundus image always suffers quality degradation caused by the clouding lens. The degradation prevents reliable diagnosis by ophthalmologists or computer-aided systems.

Cataract influence on iris recognition performance [PDF]
This paper presents the experimental study revealing weaker performance of the automatic iris recognition methods for cataract-affected eyes when compared to healthy eyes. There is little research on the topic, mostly incorporating scarce databases that are often deficient in images representing more than one illness.

Abstract Aim No consensus has been reached on the association between the risk of falls and antipsychotic and antidepressant drug use. In this study, we evaluated the risk of falls with trazodone, risperidone, and quetiapine, which are recommended for use at Kanazawa Medical University Hospital.
