Meng, Shuanghui. "Computational methods for classifying glaucomatous visual field measurements." Thesis, Curtin University, 2007. http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11937/58.

Full text
Abstract:
Glaucoma is a common eye disease that affects the optic nerve. It is the second leading cause of visual loss globally and while it can occur in all age groups, it is most common in the elderly. The main symptom of glaucoma is the progressive deterioration of the visual field. Management of glaucoma involves careful monitoring of the progress of disease with regular visual field tests. Accurate identification and early intervention can potentially prevent advanced vision loss. A number of mathematical, statistical, and data mining methods have been proposed to identify glaucomatous progression.

Abstract:
Childhood bullying can lead to adverse physical and mental health outcomes for both the victim and the bully. Risk factors for bullying can be related to gender, race, sexual preference, and having any type of disability. A pediatric primary care clinic in a large, metropolitan area, the focus for this project, did not have an evidenced-based clinical practice guideline (CPG) for providers to facilitate the management of children who presented with reported bullying.

Abstract:
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is defined by the World Health Organisation as "a continuous or repetitive inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfying sexual activity". It is a sexual disorder that affects many men and is particularly prevalent in cardiac populations. Since the release of Viagra in 1998, there has been an increased awareness of ED and arguably with it a reduction in the stigma attached to the condition. Despite this, ED remains significantly undertreated. Sexual dysfunction is an important determinant of a person's quality of life and subjective well-being

Abstract:
Rehabilitation for patients with homonymous visual field defects (HVFDs) is important for helping to improve their quality of life. Various therapies have been developed, most notably vision restoration training (VRT), optical aids and compensatory training. Studies utilising modem optical aids have reported promising results but the extent to which these aids can reliably reduce the patients' visual disability has yet to be confirmed. Restorative approaches are the most ambitious and controversial, aiming to restore vision to portions of the lost visual field. Whilst early studies suggested t

Abstract:
Despite the evidence that cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is an efficacious treatment for depression (e.g., DeRubeis et al., 2005) and anxiety (e.g., Hofmann & Smits, 2008), there remains considerable variability in its effectiveness. However, researchers have thus far been unable to conclusively identify pre-treatment predictors of therapy outcome. One approach to examining pre-treatment predictors of outcome is to formally assess the suitability of individual patients for CBT using the Suitability for Short-term Cognitive Therapy scale ([SSCT]; Safran, Segal, Shaw, & Vallis, 1990).
