Despite progress in the treatment of diabetic macular edema and diabetic retinopathy, the rate of lower fundus examination due to limitations of medical resources delays the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. Therefore, implementation of automated diabetic retinopathy screening program and the identification of more specific and sensitive biomarkers are important for facilitating the earlier detection of diabetic macular edema and diabetic retinopathy to decrease the prevalence of poor vision and blindness.
尽管在治疗糖尿病性黄斑水肿和糖尿病性视网膜病变方面取得了进展,但由于医疗资源的限制,眼底检查率较低,导致糖尿病性视网膜病变的诊断和治疗延迟。因此,实施自动化糖尿病视网膜病变筛查计划和识别更特异和敏感的生物标志物对于促进更早地发现糖尿病性黄斑水肿和糖尿病性视网膜病变,降低视力不佳和失明的发生率非常重要。
