A Comprehensive Dataset of Pattern Electroretinograms for Ocular Electrophysiology Research: The PERG-IOBA Dataset

The pattern electroretinogram (PERG) is a valuable tool in ophthalmic electrophysiology, offering a non-invasive and objective method to evaluate central retinal function. By measuring electrical activity in the macula and retinal ganglion cells, PERG provides essential quantitative insights, especially when distinguishing between macular and optic nerve diseases remains challenging. This dataset comprises 1354 transient PERG responses from 304 subjects in 336 records, representing a comprehensive collection of ocular electrophysiological data. The evaluations took place at the Institute of Applied Ophthalmobiology (IOBA) at the University of Valladolid, Spain, from 2003 to 2022. Detailed clinical information, including age, gender, and diagnoses, is provided in CSV format. Additionally, the dataset, which guarantees the presence of at least one PERG signal for each eye, incorporates visual acuity measurements in logMar scale, facilitating assessments of vision quality. Addressing a significant gap in ocular electrophysiological signal repositories, this dataset serves as a valuable resource for the advancement of ophthalmology research. Researchers can explore a wide range of eye-related conditions and diseases, leading to improved diagnostic techniques, treatment strategies, and a deeper understanding of ocular electrophysiology.

视网膜电图（PERG）模式在眼科电生理学领域具有重要价值，它提供了一种无创且客观的评价中枢视网膜功能的方法。通过测量黄斑和视网膜神经节细胞中的电活动，PERG提供了至关重要的定量信息，尤其是在区分黄斑病变与视神经疾病存在挑战时。本数据集包含了从2003年至2022年在西班牙瓦伦西亚大学应用眼科生物学研究所（IOBA）进行的304名受试者的336份记录中的1354个瞬态PERG反应，构成了一个全面的眼部电生理学数据集合。数据集提供了详细的临床信息，包括年龄、性别和诊断，并以CSV格式呈现。此外，该数据集确保每只眼睛至少存在一个PERG信号，并包含以logMar尺度测量的视力清晰度，有助于视力质量的评估。填补眼部电生理学信号库的重要空白，该数据集对于推动眼科研究的发展具有宝贵价值。研究人员可以探索广泛的眼睛相关条件和疾病，从而改善诊断技术、治疗策略，并对眼部电生理学有更深入的理解。
