BACKGROUND: We evaluated the risk of advanced colorectal neoplasia (ACRN) and colorectal cancer (CRC) according to time to colonoscopy after positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT), fecal hemoglobin concentration, and combination of both.
Individuals with colorectal cancer (CRC) have a tendency to intestinal bleeding which may result in mild to severe iron deficiency anemia, but for many colon cancer patients hematological abnormalities are subtle. The fecal occult blood test (FOBT) i...
BACKGROUND/AIM: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy (DA) of four artificial intelligence (AI) models compared to logistic regression (LR) in enhancing the performance of the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) for the detection of colore...
BACKGROUND/AIM: This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy (DA) for colorectal adenomas (CRA), screened by fecal immunochemical test (FIT), using five artificial intelligence (AI) models: logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM), neur...
The use of big data is in its first years of entering the medical world. Big data research enables analysis of very large volumes of data, identifying patterns and findings which traditional statistical methods cannot handle. The diagnosis of colorec...
