Application of artificial intelligence in anterior segment ophthalmic diseases

:171-177
 
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the application of AI technology based on deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) in the medical field has received widespread attention. The application of AI in ophthalmology is gradually being shifted to a more comprehensive and in-depth level. Trained on corneal tomography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), slit-lamp images, and other techniques. AI can achieve robust performance in the diagnosis and treatment of corneal lesions, conjunctival lesions, cataract, glaucoma and other ophthalmic diseases. However, there are also some challenges in the application of AI in ophthalmology, including the lack of interpretability of results, lack of standardization of data sets, uneven quality of data sets, insufficient applicability of models and ethical issues. In the era of 5G and telemedicine, there are also many new opportunities for ophthalmic AI. In this review, we provided a summary of the state-of-the-art AI application in anterior segment ophthalmic diseases, potential challenges in clinical implementation and its development prospects, and provides reference information for the further development of artificial intelligence in the field of ophthalmology.

Trends and hotspots concerning lupus retinopathy from 2003 to 2022: A bibliometric analysis and knowledge graph study

:-
 
Abstract Purpose: To explore the status of current global research, trends and hotspots in the field of lupus retinopathy (LR). Methods: Publications related to LR from 2003 to 2022 were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC). Citespace 6.2.R4 software was used to analyze the raw data. Bibliometric parameters such as publication quality, countries, authors, international cooperation, and keywords were taken into account. Results: A total of 315 publications were retrieved. The annual research output has increased significantly since 2010, especially since 2017. Marmor MF, Lee BR, and Melles RB contributed the highest number of articles published on LR. The top three publishing countries were the USA, China, and UK. Stanford University, Hanyang University, and Harvard Medical School were the top three producing institutions in the world for LR research. The top ten commonly used keywords include the following: systemic lupus erythematosus, retinopathy, retinal toxicity, antimalarial, hydroxychloroquine, optical coherence tomography, antiphospholipid syndrome, microvascular, optic neuritis, optical coherence tomography angiography. The keywords "optical coherence tomography angiography" and "vessel density" have exploded in recent years. Conclusion: By analyzing the current body of LR literature, specific global trends and hotspots for LR research were identified, presenting valuable information to track cutting-edge progress and for future cooperation between various authors and institutions.

Strategies to control myopia in children: a review of the findings from the Anyang Childhood Eye Study

:-
 

Abstract: Myopia in children remains a major public health problem worldwide, especially in some Asian countries such as China, Singapore and Japan. Although many interventions have been attempted, few has been proven to be effective in controlling onset and progression of myopia in children. Environmental factors, genetic susceptibility or ethnic differences can affect the efficacy of these interventions. However, many questions remain unclear and even controversial for controlling myopia. China has the biggest population with myopia, especially for children myopia. Thus, it is of importance to present what achievements Chinese scientists have made in the field of myopia control in children. We summarize the current findings on myopia control in children from the Anyang Childhood Eye Study, including epidemiological data, clinical trials, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and compare them with studies in other countries to find potential clues for controlling myopia in children.

Limbal epithelial stem cells in corneal surface reconstruction

:-
 

Abstract: Cornea serves as the partial front barrier and major light reflection organ of the eye. The integrity of corneal surface is essential for ocular function. Injuries or congenital diseases could significantly destruct the homeostasis of the ocular surface, especially the microenvironment of limbal epithelial stem cells (LESCs), and will eventually cause dysfunction of corneal regeneration and diminish of LESCs. The loss of LESCs by different reasons are named limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD), which is one of the leading cause of vision loss worldwide. To restore the corneal surface, LESC transplantation in the form of tissue or cell cultures is currently a viable and promising method to treat LSCD. In this review, we aim to introduce the characters and niche of LESCs, and discuss different aspects of its application in cornea surface reconstruction.
