Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common disease with high prevalence, and its endoscopic severity can be evaluated using the Los Angeles classification (LA grade). This paper proposes a deep learning model (i.e., GERD-VGGNet) that employs ...
PURPOSE: The robotic system was introduced to overcome the technical limitations of conventional laparoscopy. For complex oncological operations, it appears to offer further advantages. With regard to hiatal hernia repair, its role has yet to be dete...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) has potential to streamline interpretation of pH-impedance studies. In this exploratory observational cohort study, we determined feasibility of automated AI extraction of baseline impedance (AIBI) and evaluat...
BACKGROUND: Recurrent gastroesophageal reflux symptoms in adolescents and young adults who underwent fundoplication in childhood present a technical challenge for the surgeon. The distal oesophagus and hiatus are difficult to access by laparotomy, th...

A new computer-aided diagnosis method is proposed to diagnose the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) from endoscopic images of the esophageal-gastric junction. To avoid the interferences of different endoscope devices and automatic camera white b...
BACKGROUND: Cerebral palsy may be associated with comorbidities such as undernutrition, impaired growth and gastrointestinal symptoms. Children with cerebral palsy exhibit eating problems due to the effect on the anatomical and functional structures ...
Gastroesophageal reflux is a latent factor that may cause esophagitis, esophageal stenosis, and aspiration pneumonia through the regurgitation of the gastric fluid contents. For laparoscopic surgery, posture-changing and pneumoperitoneum operations a...
