Combining Fine- and Coarse-Grained Classifiers for Diabetic Retinopathy Detection
Visual artefacts of early diabetic retinopathy in retinal fundus images are usually small in size, inconspicuous, and scattered all over retina. Detecting diabetic retinopathy requires physicians to look at the whole image and fixate on some specific ...

Functional deficits precede structural lesions in mice with high-fat diet-induced diabetic retinopathy [PDF]
Obesity predisposes to human type 2 diabetes, the most common cause of diabetic retinopathy. To determine if high-fat diet–induced diabetes in mice can model retinal disease, we weaned mice to chow or a high-fat diet and tested the hypothesis that diet ...

Age and diabetes related changes of the retinal capillaries: an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study [PDF]
Normal human aging and diabetes are associated with a gradual decrease of cerebral flow in the brain with changes in vascular architecture. Thickening of the capillary basement membrane and microvascular fibrosis are evident in the central nervous system

Correlation of C-reactive protein and BMI with severity of diabetic retinopathy
Background: Diabetic retinopathy is one of the complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). The pathogenesis has been attributed to be due to inflammation recently. Similarly, obesity has been found to be risk factor for diabetic retinopathy.

Diabetic retinopathy: could the alpha-1 antitrypsin be a therapeutic option? [PDF]
Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most important causes of blindness. The underlying mechanisms of this disease include inflammatory changes and remodeling processes of the extracellular-matrix (ECM) leading to pericyte and vascular endothelial cell ...
