Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and high-grade dysplasia (HGD) are two different pathological entities; however, they sometimes share similarities in histological structure depending on the context. Thus, distinguishing between the two may require care...
The study aimed to establish and validate a nomogram model to predict postoperative delirium (POD) among esophageal cancer resection patients. Clinical data of 396 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent esophagectomy from November 2020 to June...
Although neoadjuvant chemotherapy with docetaxel + cisplatin + 5-fluorouracil (CF) has been the standard treatment for stage II and III esophageal cancers, it is associated with severe adverse events caused by docetaxel. Consequently, this study aime...
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely explored to enhance capsule endoscopy (CE), with the goal of improving the efficiency of the reading process. While most AI models have been developed for small bowel and colon analysis, t...
PURPOSE: In the context of precision medicine, radiomics has become a key technology in solving medical problems. For adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction (AEG), developing a preoperative CT-based prediction model for AEG invasion and lymph nod...
BACKGROUND: Endoscopic surveillance is the clinical standard for Barrett's oesophagus, but its effectiveness is inconsistent. We have developed a test comprising a pan-oesophageal cell collection device coupled with biomarkers to stratify patients in...
