Anonymized underlying data supports a PLOS publication on Nonproliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (NPDR) regression rates. The dataset covers patients with very mild or mild NPDR within an Indian Health Service teleophthalmology program from 2015 to 2020. It was authored by Sven Bursell of IHS-JVN.
Use Cases
- Analyze rates of NPDR regression based on teleophthalmology program participation
- Model disease progression outcomes based on patient enrollment in a specific healthcare service
- Evaluate the longitudinal effectiveness of a telemedicine program for diabetic eye care
Strengths
- Data underpins a peer-reviewed PLOS publication
