A retrospective analysis was performed on the transient and steady-state pattern electroretinograms recorded from 42 patients with glaucoma, 13 patients with senile dementia of the Alzheimer's type, 58 patients with diabetes mellitus, and 92 control subjects to evaluate the pattern of electroretinog

β¦ Synopsis
The pattern evoked electroretinogram (PERG) was investigated in 11 patients with unilateral optic nerve disease and in a series of age-matched controls. The visually evoked potential (VEP) was also measured. The PERG showed a similar reduction to the VEP in optic nerve disease. Serial studies indicate that the PERG may not be affected immediately in some instances but may show a gradual decline over several months.

We analyzed the electroretinogram elicited by pattern stimuli (PERG) in 29 patients with unilateral optic nerve disease. The normal fellow eyes served as a control. When the normal fellow eye was covered and the patient was asked to watch the center of the pattern stimuli with the affected eye, the
The aim of this study is to investigate in the rat the properties of the pattern electroretinogram (ERG) and to assess whether it depends upon the functional integrity of ganglion cells. Flash and pattern ERG were recorded from urethane anaesthetized hooded rats. The pattern ERG was evoked by phase
We have recorded both pattern and flash electroretinograms (ERG) in two patients with unilateral optic nerve damage due to optic canal fracture over one year. The pattern ERG from the affected eye was reduced in amplitude by approximately 40% in one patient, 60% in the other, compared with that from
In six 3-week-old kittens, the tendon of the lateral rectus muscle of one eye was sectioned under anaesthesia in order to induce an esotropic (nasally-directed) squint. At maturity, the pattern electroretinogram (PERG) and pattern visual evoked response (PVER) were recorded under anaesthesia to phas
