EpilepIndex: A novel feature engineering tool to detect epilepsy using EEG signals.

Epilepsy is a common neurological disease characterized by seizures. A person with a seizure onset can lose consciousness which in turn can lead to fatal accidents. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a recording of the electrical signals from the brain which is used to analyse the epileptic seizures.

Correlation between visual acuity at discharge and on final follow-up in patients undergoing manual small incision cataract surgery.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between visual acuity on discharge and at final follow-up in patients undergoing manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) through outreach services of a tertiary care training center.

Methods: A prospective observational study was done to determine the correlation between visual acuity on postoperative day 1 and final follow-up (4-8 weeks) among various categories of surgeons and surgical complications in patients who underwent MSICS between January 2018 and March 2018. Proportions of patients benefitting from refractive correction were also analyzed.

Quantification of corneal transparency in post-mortem human corneas using laser scatter image analysis.

Background: The cornea is a highly transparent structure covering the anterior one-fifth of the eyeball. The suitability of post-mortem donor corneas for keratoplasty is currently qualitatively assessed. This makes inferences prone to bias and subjective variability.
