BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Despite the organised CRC screening programme, the uptake rate of the population-based CRC screening was still low. Thus, ...
A topological index is a numerical value derived from the structure of a molecule or graph that provides useful information about the molecule's physical, chemical, or biological properties. These indices are especially important in chemo-informatics...
BACKGROUND: Ageing is a heterogeneous process, which is associated with heterogeneous resilience in older people. Cancer surgery and treatment may be associated with accelerated ageing in some older people; studying this process will improve understa...
BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is gaining attention as a treatment for advanced colorectal cancer owing to its potential to improve surgical outcomes and prognosis. However, reliable biomarkers to predict the response to NAC are lacking. ...
Histological staining has long been the gold standard for cancer detection, but it is limited by subjectivity and delayed results. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) has emerged as a promising technique, offering the advantages of objecti...

Recent advancements in deep learning techniques have contributed to developing improved polyp segmentation methods, thereby aiding in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer and facilitating automated surgery like endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). H...
Colorectal cancer remains a major global health challenge, emphasizing the need for advanced diagnostic tools that enable early and accurate detection. Photoacoustic (PA) spectroscopy, a hybrid technique combining optical absorption with acoustic res...
Emerging evidence suggests a bidirectional relationship between colorectal cancer (CRC) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), yet the shared molecular mechanisms and prognostic biomarkers remain poorly characterized. This study aimed to identify novel...
Accurate real-time optical diagnosis that distinguishes neoplastic from non-neoplastic colorectal lesions during colonoscopy can lower the costs of pathological assessments, prevent unnecessary polypectomies, and help avoid adverse events. Using a mu...
Colonoscopy is a crucial tool for evaluating lower gastrointestinal disease, monitoring high-risk patients for colorectal neoplasia, and screening for colorectal cancer. In the United States, over 14 million colonoscopies are performed annually, with...
