Multifocal Electroretinograms

18.8K
The development of the multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) is an important advance in the diagnosis and characterization of retinopathy. Multifocal electroretinograms are a mathematical average of an approximation of a b-wave. Software programs can derive ERGs from more than a hundred retinal areas in a few minutes per eye. Scotomas and retinal dysfunction can be mapped and...

Recording of Electroretinogram and Visual Evoked Potential in a Rat

This video demonstrates how to record electroretinogram (ERG) and visual evoked potential (VEP) in a conscious rat. The rat, with surgically implanted electrodes, is first dark-adapted. After applying dilating drops, the animal is placed in a restrainer and positioned in a Ganzfeld bowl. The ERG and VEP signals are then...

Using a Split-belt Treadmill to Evaluate Generalization of Human Locomotor Adaptation

8.7K
We describe a protocol for investigating human locomotor adaptation using the split-belt treadmill, which has two belts that can drive each leg at a different speed. We specifically focus on a paradigm designed to test the generalization of adapted locomotor patterns to different walking contexts (e.g., gait speeds, walking environments).

Adhering to international standards and maintaining retinal dark adaptation are critical to acquire valid full-field electroretinogram responses in the diagnosis and management of inherited retinal diseases. A practical protocol using a portable darkroom is provided to obtain full-field electroretinogram for infants and children under sedation or general anesthesia in the operating room...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Electroretinograms (ERGs) are crucial for assessing retinal function.
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has been associated with visual processing differences.
  • Standard ERG analysis may not fully capture complex waveform changes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel method for visualizing light-adapted ERG amplitude profiles.
  • To analyze ERG responses across a range of flash strengths using contour plots.
  • To compare ERG amplitude profiles between individuals with ASD and typically developing controls.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a dataset of light-adapted ERGs from 88 individuals with ASD and 70 controls.
  • Applied a Generalized Additive Model (GAM) with tensor product splines to analyze waveform intervals.
  • Analyzed 10 flash strengths (12-446 Td.s) focusing on baseline, a-wave, and b-wave ascending limb.

Main Results:

  • Contour plots revealed a pattern of reduced amplitude in the ascending limb of the b-wave for the ASD group.
  • Representative responses from the GAM model illustrated changing ERG waveform profiles across flash strengths.
  • Derived z-score contour plots provided qualitative evaluation of mean amplitude differences, primarily in the b-wave.

Conclusions:

  • Contour plots offer an additional approach for analyzing stimulus-response data series with minimal assumptions.
  • The GAM-based methodology enables simultaneous investigation of amplitude changes over time and flash strength.
  • This visualization technique may support clinical applications and theoretical investigations of ERG data.
