Surgical Intervention Outcome for Patients With Acute Vision Loss Due to Allergic Fungal Rhinosinusitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) is a severe type of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) characterized by a high risk of acute vision loss resulting from the affection of optic nerves. This vision loss results from direct pressure upon the optic nerve by the sinus tissues and bone degradation. This is why early involvement of a professional is significant so as not to result in a permanent disability.

Significant effect of image contrast enhancement on weld defect detection.

Weld defect inspection is an essential aspect of testing in industries field. From a human viewpoint, a manual inspection can make appropriate justification more difficult and lead to incorrect identification during weld defect detection. Weld defect inspection uses X-radiography testing, which is now mostly outdated.
