Purpose: A reference atlas of optic nerve (ON) retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons could facilitate studies of neuro-ophthalmic diseases by detecting subtle RGC axonal changes. Here we construct an RGC axonal atlas for normotensive eyes in Brown Norway rats, widely used in glaucoma research, and also develop/evaluate several novel metrics of axonal damage in hypertensive eyes.

Methods: Light micrographs of entire ON cross-sections from hypertensive and normotensive eyes were processed through a deep learning-based algorithm, AxoNet2.

Article Synopsis
  • Clinical decision support systems and telemedicine can enhance surgical care, yet there's a gap in understanding patient perspectives on electronic operating rooms (eOR) for remote monitoring.
  • The study aimed to assess patients' attitudes towards eOR monitoring and identify barriers and facilitators to its use.
  • Results indicated that participants felt more comfortable with familiar clinicians monitoring their health during surgery compared to unfamiliar ones, emphasizing the importance of trust in patient care.
