Assessment of the development of primary open-angle glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy using digital medicine

Abstract

The leading place in the structure of blindness and low vision is occupied by two diseases: primary open-angle glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. The combination of two diseases in one eye gives an even more severe prognosis for vision. Modern diagnostic equipment helps in accurate and early diagnosis of the disease by analyzing digital data of the optic nerve head and macular area of the retina according to the results of an optical coherence tomograph. A mathematical model for predicting the development of diabetic retinopathy and primary open-angle glaucoma according to the proposed mathematical criteria has been developed. The criteria represent the ratio of the integral area of the neuroretinal rim to the integral volume of the neuroretinal rim; the retinal thickness criterion and criterion of the primary open-angle glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy are calculated. A computer program has been developed. The algorithm of the program, which includes windows for entering digital data of the macular zone and parameters of the optic nerve head, is presented. The result of the program is the statement of the risk of developing combined pathology of the fundus in a particular patient.

Reducing the thickness of the insulation layer of building walls based on the study of their temperature and moisture regime

“…Humidity conditions of the building premises can be dry, normal, damp, wet. The thermal conductivity of a building material under operating conditions A is higher than the thermal conductivity of a dry building material, but lower than the thermal conductivity under operating conditions B [2][3][4][5][6].…”

Special aspects of calculation of infiltration in residential and public buildings

“…To maintain comfortable air exchange, heating and ventilation systems are used [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Infiltration studies are closely related to the geometric shape of the building and other building sciences [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26].…”

Modern studies of heat losses of a building basement through a soil mass

“…The relevance of the study is dictated by the complexity of calculating heat loss to the soil through the basement of the building. The problem is caused by the unsteady-state thermal regime of the soil mass to which the floor structures are adjacent [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

“…When calculating, it is necessary to take into account the features of floor insulation and thermal conditions, which requires the development of new methods that can most accurately determine heat losses [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”
