BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Fecal calprotectin (FCP) has limited specificity as diagnostic biomarker of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), leading to unnecessary invasive endoscopies. This study aimed to develop and validate a fecal microbiota and ...
Non-linear interactions among single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), genes, and pathways play an important role in human diseases, but identifying these interactions is a challenging task. Neural networks are state-of-the-art predictors in many doma...
INTRODUCTION: Gastrointestinal disorders (GIDs) affect nearly 40% of the global population, with gut microbiome-metabolome interactions playing a crucial role in gastric cancer (GC), colorectal cancer (CRC), and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is being increasingly studied and implemented in gastroenterology. In inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), numerous AI models are being developed to assist with IBD diagnosis, standardization of endoscopic and radiologic dis...
BACKGROUND: Alterations in ileal Paneth cell (PC) density have been described in gut inflammatory diseases such as Crohn's disease (CD) and could be used as a biomarker for disease prognosis. However, quantifying PCs is time-intensive, a barrier for ...
