Alterations in ocular microcirculation and oxygen metabolism in patients with lipemia retinalis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: The study aims to assess the alterations in retinal oxygen saturation and retinal and choroidal blood flow in lipemia retinalis. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study on 10 eyes (5 patients) with history of lipemia retinalis. The study comprised 10 eyes with documented history of lipemia retinalis and 10 participants as healthy controls. Patients with a confirmed history of lipemia retinalis were grouped into two cohorts based on their most recent fundus examination: untreated lipemia retinalis (abnormal fundus) and resolved lipemia retinalis (normal fundus). Both retinal arteriolar and venular oxygen saturation were measured using the non-invasive spectrophotometric retinal oximeter (Oxymap T1). The mean blur rate (MBR) of the optic nerve and choroidal blood flow were analyzed using a laser speckle flowgraph (LSFG). RESULTS: Patients with untreated lipemia retinalis had a significantly higher retinal arteriolar and venular oxygen saturation than that of the other two groups (p < 0.001). Moreover, patients with untreated lipemia retinalis had significantly smaller retinal arteriolar and venular diameters (p < 0.001). On LSFG, there was a significant difference in the overall MBR (p = 0.007) and vessel MBR of the optic nerve between the groups (p = 0.011). The patients with history of lipemia retinalis (untreated and resolved) exhibited a high overall MBR and vessel MBR of the optic nerve than that of the control group. There was a significant elevation of the optic nerve (p = 0.002) and choroidal blowout score (p < 0.001), while the resistivity index of the optic nerve (p = 0.001) and choroids (p = 0.002) was significantly lower in patients with resolved and untreated lipemia retinalis. CONCLUSIONS: There was a significant alteration in retinal oximetry, in untreated lipemia retinalis, and in retinal blood flow, in both the resolved and untreated groups. The increase in retinal blood flow and oxygen saturation may elucidate the preservation of visual acuity and function despite the fundus changes observed in lipemia retinalis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
