BACKGROUND: Severe esophagogastric varices (EGVs) significantly affect prognosis of patients with hepatitis B because of the risk of life-threatening hemorrhage. Endoscopy is the gold standard for EGV detection but it is invasive, costly and carries ...
BACKGROUND: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an effective intervention for managing complications of portal hypertension, particularly acute variceal bleeding (AVB). While effective in reducing portal pressure and preventing re...
The present letter to the editor is related to the study with the title "Automatic detection of small bowel (SB) lesions with different bleeding risk based on deep learning models". Capsule endoscopy (CE) is the main tool to assess SB diseases but it...
BACKGROUND: Capsule endoscopy reading is time consuming, and readers are required to maintain attention so as not to miss significant findings. Deep convolutional neural networks can recognise relevant findings, possibly exceeding human performances ...

INTRODUCTION: Readmission and death in cirrhosis are common, expensive, and difficult to predict. Our aim was to evaluate the abilities of multiple artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to predict clinical outcomes based on variables collected at a...
OBJECTIVE: Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding commonly requires intensive care unit (ICU) in cases of potentialhaemodynamiccompromise or likely urgent intervention. However, manypatientsadmitted to the ICU stop bleeding and do not require further interve...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Gastric vascular abnormalities are a well known cause of gastrointestinal bleeding. Due to their recurrent bleeding tendency and potential to cause life-threatening blood loss, gastric vascular abnormalities can result in significa...

INTRODUCTION: Acute gastrointestinal (GI) bleed is a common reason for hospitalization with 2%-10% risk of mortality. In this study, we developed a machine learning (ML) model to calculate the risk of mortality in intensive care unit patients admitte...
