- 医疗成像医学成像
- 生物统计学 生物统计学
背景情况:
- 现有的地理缩 (GA) 结果测量有局限性.
- 最好校正的视力敏度 (BCVA) 是功能性的,但主观的;GA区域是客观的,但具有统一的斑点重要性.
研究的目的:
- 为了导出和验证地理缩权重-by-Acuity指数 (GAWAIN) 作为一个新的结果措施.
- 为了使结构GA指标与功能BCVA指标保持一致.
主要方法:
- 使用in silico分析和AREDS2和GA米诺环林试验的数据开发了GAWAIN.
- 基于BCVA赤字和年龄的同心圆环中经验加权的斑点像素.
- 使用皮尔森相关性和ROC分析对BCVA和GA面积进行验证的GAWAIN.
主要成果:

03:02Measurement: Derived Units
55.3K
The International System of Units or SI system, by international agreement, has fixed measurement units for seven fundamental properties: length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, amount of substance, and luminosity. These are called the SI base units.

01:29Reliability and Validity
13.9K
Reliability and validity are two important considerations that must be made with any type of data collection. Reliability refers to the ability to consistently produce a given result. In the context of psychological research, this would mean that any instruments or tools used to collect data do so in consistent, reproducible ways.

01:25Selected Data About Geographic Locations
274
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) rely on two core types of data: spatial data and attribute data.Spatial DataSpatial data defines the physical location of features within a coordinate system, typically expressed in terms of latitude and longitude. It provides precise positioning for elements like roads, rivers, or buildings.Attribute DataAttribute data complements spatial data by adding descriptive information about these features. For example, a road's spatial data includes its start and...

01:11Work Done on a System by External Force
3.0K
The work done by an external force on a particle changes its kinetic energy. However, internal forces must also be considered for a system of interacting particles. The potential energy formulation helps formulate the effect of internal forces. The net work done by an external force can be written in terms of the total change of mechanical energy, which includes both kinetic and potential energies.

02:24Predicting Reaction Outcomes
10.8K
Kinetics describes the rate and path by which a reaction occurs. In contrast, thermodynamics deals with state functions and describes the properties, behavior, and components of a system. It is not concerned with the path taken by the process and cannot address the rate at which a reaction occurs. Although it does provide information about what can happen during a reaction process, it does not describe the detailed steps of what appears on an atomic or a molecular level. On the other hand,...

01:13Outcomes of Glycolysis
107.1K
Nearly all the energy used by cells comes from the bonds that make up complex organic compounds. These organic compounds are broken down into simpler molecules, such as glucose. As a result, cells extract energy from glucose over many chemical reactions—a process called cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration can occur aerobically (with oxygen) or anaerobically (without oxygen). In the presence of oxygen, cellular respiration starts with glycolysis and continues with pyruvate...
