Adult Intussusception Caused by Descending Colon Cancer during Chemotherapy of Stomach Cancer Recurrence

Case Reports in Gastroenterology, 2012
Intussusception in adults is uncommon, and it is rare in the descending colon because of its fixation to the retroperitoneum. We herein describe a case of intussusception caused by descending colon cancer.

Analysis of lesion localisation at colonoscopy: outcomes from a multi-centre U.K. study [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Colonoscopy is currently the gold standard for detection of colorectal lesions, but may be limited in anatomically localising lesions. This audit aimed to determine the accuracy of colonoscopy lesion localisation, any subsequent changes in

A comparison between rectal and colonic biopsies to detect Lewy pathology in Parkinson's disease

Neurobiology of Disease, 2012
We have shown that routine biopsies of the ascending colon obtained at colonoscopy allow the detection of Lewy neurites (LN) in the enteric nervous system (ENS) of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Although colonoscopy is a relatively safe procedure, it

Expression of p16 Within Myenteric Neurons of the Aged Colon: A Potential Marker of Declining Function

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Human colonic neuromuscular functions decline among the elderly. The aim was to explore the involvement of senescence. A preliminary PCR study looked for age-dependent differences in expression of CDKN1A (encoding the senescence-related p21 protein) and ...

Explainable human‐in‐the‐loop healthcare image information quality assessment and selection

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Smart healthcare applications cannot be separated from healthcare data analysis and the interactive interpretability between data and model. A human‐in‐the‐loop active learning approach is introduced to reduce the cost of healthcare data labelling by evaluating the information quality of unlabelled medical data and then screening the high ...
