Evaluation of Fundus Function in Mature Cataract Patients by Visual Electrophysiology by Min Zhang, Min Ji, Mengjia Tan, Ying Yu, Huaijin Guan

“…Compared with the group without fundus disease, the preoperative electrophysiological examination of the group with fundus disease showed that the amplitude of ffERG waves and the amplitude density of the P1 wave in the 2nd to 5th rings of mfERG were decreased (all P < 0.05). ffERG and mfERG can be used for differential diagnosis of fundus disease (all P < 0.05), while PVEP has no significant diagnostic value for fundus disease (all P > 0.05). …”

Prognostic significance of the logistic regression model for assessing the risk of recurrence in patients with prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy by S. A. Reva, A. V. Arnautov, O. A. Klitsenko, S. B. Petrov

“…The sensitivity of this model was 86.6 %, specificity 81.5 %, diagnostic accuracy 82.7 %.Conclusion. This model makes it possible to obtain the probability of recurrence after radical prostatectomy depending on the severity of a specific set of predictive signs (a positive effect is predicted for y &gt; 0.5, a negative one for y ≤ 0.5) and the degree of influence of one or a group of predictive signs on the likelihood of relapse, such as the ISUP grade group, locally advanced disease, clinically detectable lymph node lesion, positive surgical margin, PSA level of more than 0.09 ng/ml 1 month after surgery, the presence of regional metastases and the time between biopsy and the start of treatment.…”
