Purpose: To evaluate the retinal vascular response to hyperoxia in patients with diabetes at the preclinical stage of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and to quantify the changes in comparison with normal subjects using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
Methods: In this prospective study, 40 eyes of 20 participants comprising 10 diabetic patients with no diabetic retinopathy (NDR) and 10 normal subjects were recruited. OCTA images were acquired in the resting position and were repeated after a hyperoxic challenge using a nasal mask connected to a reservoir bag supplying 100% oxygen at the rate of 15 L per minute for 5 minutes.
Article Synopsis
- Contemporary mHealth interventions, using behavior change techniques like social comparison, aim to promote healthier lifestyles, but their effectiveness with preadolescents is not well understood.
- The study evaluates how social comparison influences engagement with an mHealth app among preadolescents through a 12-week crossover experiment with different leaderboard strategies in a school setting.
- Results indicate that leveraging social comparison strategies, especially those highlighting teacher performance, significantly enhances student engagement in healthy activities.
