MR1: ESGE recommends small-bowel capsule endoscopy as the first-line examination, before consideration of other endoscopic and radiological diagnostic tests for suspected bleeding, given excellent safety profile endoscopy, its patient tolerability, potential to visualize entire mucosa.Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. MR2: in patients with overt bleeding soon possible after episode, ideally within 48 hours, maximize subsequent therapeutic yield.Strong high MR3: does not...
Capsule endoscopy reading is time consuming, and readers are required to maintain attention so as not miss significant findings. Deep convolutional neural networks can recognise relevant findings, possibly exceeding human performances reducing the of capsule endoscopy. Our primary aim was assess non-inferiority artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted versus standard for potentially small bowel bleeding lesions (high P2, moderate P1; Saurin classification) at per-patient analysis. The mean in...
Abstract Background Patients with prior colon cancer have increased risk of metachronous colorectal neoplasms; therefore, endoscopic surveillance is indicated. Current recommendations are not risk-stratified. We investigated predictive factors for neoplasms to build a model spare colonoscopies low-risk patients. Methods This was multicenter, retrospective study including patients who underwent surgery in 2001 – 2008 (derivation cohort) and 2009 2013 (validation cohort). A neoplasm occurrence...
Aims Small bowel (SB) capsule endoscopy (CE) is burdened by long reading time, especially in CE training. The application of artificial intelligence (AI) might represent a key optimization strategy. Primary aim this study was to measure the diagnostic yield (DY) standard and AI-assisted readers, both experts trainees, for pathological SB lesions. Secondary DY angiodysplasia (AVM) other types lesions, compare mean time trainees modalities.
Background: The diagnostic accuracy of colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) depends on a well-cleansed bowel. Evaluating the cleansing quality can be difficult with substantial interobserver variation. Objectives: Our primary aim was to establish standard agreement for bowel in CCE based evaluations by expert readers. Then, we aimed investigate cleansing. Design: We conducted an study quality. Methods: Readers different experience levels and colonoscopy evaluated Leighton–Rex scale Colon Capsule...
Gut microbiota analysis, until a few years ago an exclusive research tool, has recently begun to spread among doctors and nutritionists around the world as means aimed at better understanding patient disorders. As often happens, commercial push literally exploded today there are numerous companies that offer analysis of dubious quality and/or business appliance selling supplements like. For non-experts it can therefore be difficult find one's way proposals. In this article we try not only...
Aims The inpatient status is one of the strongest independent predictors for inadequate colon cleansing. best strategy bowel preparation among inpatients yet unknown. Based on experts’ opinion, high-volume, 4L polyethilene glycol (PEG) solution should be standard-of-care in this setting. We aimed to determine whether novel 1L-PEG plus ascorbate prep associated with increased cleansing inpatients.
Background and Aims: Capsule endoscopy (CE) reading is time consuming, readers are required to maintain attention not miss significant findings. Deep neural networks (DNNs) can recognize relevant findings, possibly exceeding human performances, reducing the of CE. Primary aim was assess non-inferiority AI-assisted vs standard for potentially small bowel (SB) bleeding lesions (high-P2, moderate-P1; Saurin classification) at per-patient analysis. Secondary compare mean time.Methods: From...
Aims It is sometimes necessary to perform an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy for gastroduodenal placement (GDP) of small bowel (SB) capsule (CE) devices. The aim our study was describe feasibility and clinical outcomes the technique in adult patients.
Aims Adenoma detection rate (ADR) has been inversely associated with the risk of interval colorectal cancer. The aim study is to evaluate benefit a computer-aided device (CADe Endo-AID) in consecutive, non-selected series patients undergoing colonoscopy.
