Latest AI and machine learning research in gastroenterology for healthcare professionals.
Cancer is caused by germline and somatic mutations, which can share biological features such as amino acid change. However, integrated germline and somatic analysis remains uncommon. We present a framework that uses machine learning to learn features of recurrent somatic mutations to (1) predict somatic variants from tumor-only samples and (2) identify somatic-like germline variants for integrated...
Few previous studies have reported on a combination response (hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA undetected, alanine aminotransferase normalization and hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion) following nucleos(t)ide analogue (NAs) long-term therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). This study aimed to investigate the combination response on long-term NAs therapy in patients with HBeAg-po...
A lymphocele is one of the complications of systematic pelvic or para-aortic lymphadenectomy. Although most patients are entirely asymptomatic, our pa...
(Wuweizi in Chinese), a common traditional Chinese herbal medicine, has been used for centuries to treat chronic liver disease. The therapeutic effic...

Tangeretin, 4',5,6,7,8-pentamethoxyflavone, is one of the major polymethoxyflavones (PMFs) existing in citrus fruits, particularly in the peels of swe...
BACKGROUND: Acute pancreatitis (AP) can induce portosplenomesenteric vein thrombosis (PVT), which may generate higher morbidity and mortality. However...
The aim of this study was to investigate the combined effects of chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) and a microencapsulated CG1.0007 probiotic (PRO) on g...
We utilize deep neural networks to develop prediction models for patient survival and conditional survival of colon cancer. Our models are trained and...
The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist, a bile acid-activated nuclear receptor, has been shown to improve the histologic features of nonalcoholic stea...
The present study was to evaluate thyme and ajwain as antibiotic growth promoter substitutions on growth performance, carcass characteristics and seru...
BACKGROUND: Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy is an accurate method for the diagnosis of solid pancreatic masses. However, a significant number of c...
Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is performed with a miniature swallowable endoscope enabling the visualization of the whole gastrointestinal (GI) tra...
Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) are confirmed to be important molecules within many crucial biological processes and therefore related to various complex...
Cushing's syndrome requires glucocorticoid replacement following adrenalectomy. Based on a simplified glucocorticoid therapy scheme and the peri-opera...
Bioinspired robotic structures comprising soft actuation units have attracted increasing research interest. Taking advantage of its inherent complianc...
The procedure for obtaining anthocyanin-enriched extracts from black rice was optimized by response surface methodology, and the effects of the optimi...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning tools identify patients with blood counts indicating greater likelihood of colorectal cancer and warranting colonoscopy r...
In contrast to patients with viral hepatitis, patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) can progress to hepatocellular carcinoma during t...
This study was conducted to determine the effect of 200 ng mL and 2000 ng mL deoxynivalenol (DON) on apoptosis, barrier function, nutrient transporter...
