Retinal vessel segmentation is a crucial focus within the realm of medical image analysis, playing a pivotal role in early disease diagnosis, notably retinopathy. Deep learning has exhibited remarkable segmentation capabilities for retinal blood vessels, leveraging the advantages of contextual feature learning. However, there are still some shortcomings in fine retinal vessel segmentation due to the loss of semantic information due to too many pooling operations or limited receptive fields due to fewer pooling operations. In response to the nuanced balance required for expanding the receptive field while preserving information integrity during multiple downsampling operations, this paper introduces DCNet (Dilated Convolution Net), a novel lightweight three-layer dilated-convolution-based network tailored for retinal blood vessel segmentation. This three-layer architecture autonomously extracts crucial segmentation features from various levels of the feature map. Each layer comprises a dilated convolution Positive Sequence Block (PSB) and a dilated convolution Reverse Sequence Block (RSB). The dilated convolution operation is strategically exploited for its capacity to extend the receptive field, facilitating effective feature information extraction. Simultaneously, to alleviate semantic information loss within the deep network's feature map, this paper proposes the Nonlinear Feature Extraction Module (NFEM) to supplement shallow network feature information. Furthermore, to comprehensively leverage information from various scale features, a Feature Fusion Module (FFM) is introduced for multiscale vascular feature extraction, ultimately enhancing segmentation accuracy. DCNet undergoes rigorous evaluation on four publicly accessible retinal vascular datasets – DRIVE, STARE, CHASE_DB1, and HRF. Experimental results unequivocally demonstrate that DCNet achieves superior segmentation performance with fewer model parameters compared to existing state-of-the-art methods. The code for DCNet can be accessed on the following website: https://github.com/ChunhuiYu1/DCNet. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Researchers from the Department of Cardiology have provided new insights into retinal artery occlusion, a condition where the blood flow to the retina is blocked. The study focuses on a rare variant of mitral annular calcification (MAC) called caseous mitral annular calcification (CMAC), which can lead to complications such as systemic embolization. The researchers present a case study of a 60-year-old female patient with CMAC who experienced sudden vision loss in her left eye. The study concludes that while CMAC is a rare and benign condition, it is associated with various pathologies, and there is currently no standardized management approach. Surgery is recommended in cases of severe mitral valve disease or systemic embolization, but conservative management can also be effective. [Extracted from the article]

A recent study conducted by researchers at the Medical University of Graz examined the effects of prolonged bed rest on retinal microcirculation. The study involved ten healthy young males who underwent a ten-day bed rest protocol. The researchers found that retinal venular diameter decreased significantly at the end of the bed rest period, suggesting that this change may be attributed to plasma volume losses and overall cardiovascular deconditioning. These findings have implications for understanding the cardiovascular dysfunction experienced by older individuals during extended periods of bed rest in hospitals or care homes, as well as the vascular deconditioning that occurs during spaceflight.

As an essential step in the early diagnosis of retinopathy, the blood vessels morphological attributes assist specialists to obtain pathological information efficiently. Most existing deep learning methods are based on U-shaped convolutional neural networks for the segmentation of blood vessels and have made substantial progress. However, the variance between vessel images remains challenging for segmentation algorithms, as demonstrated by poor cross-validation performance between different datasets. In this paper, a novel U-shaped deep convolutional network is proposed for retinal vessel segmentation, namely spiking neural P-type Dual-channel dilated convolutional network (SDDC-Net). We redesign the classical U-shaped convolution network based on the spiking neural P system computational mechanism for the first time. Distinct from the conventional convolutional neural network, SDDC-Net integrates the spiking neural P system convolutional neurons into the classic encoder-decoder architecture. We employ dilated convolution into an encoder, which improves both capabilities of perceiving more contexts and perceptual sensitivity of thin blood. We evaluate this model on three public datasets (DRIVE, STARE, CHASE_DB1), which indicates the more sensitive detection of thin vessels compared to most existing methods, showing higher sensitivity and F1 metrics. Compared to the baseline U-Net, our sensitivity, accuracy, and F1 score metrics on DRIVE dataset surpass by 10.66%, 1.73%, and 1.47% respectively. We also evaluate the effectiveness of spiking neural P system and dilated convolution in the ablation experiments, which demonstrates that accuracy increases with few drops in specificity. The cross-validation experiments show that our model has not only effective segmentation ability but also excellent generalization ability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
