Capsule Endoscopy Multi-classification via Gated Attention and Wavelet Transformations [PDF]

arXiv
Abnormalities in the gastrointestinal tract significantly influence the patient's health and require a timely diagnosis for effective treatment. With such consideration, an effective automatic classification of these abnormalities from a video capsule endoscopy (VCE) frame is crucial for improvement in diagnostic workflows.

Effect of autonomic nervous system resection extent on urinary dysfunction in robotic rectal cancer surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In rectal cancer surgery, this study examined the risk factors for urinary dysfunction and the effect of autonomic nervous system resection extent on urinary dysfunction. Autonomic nervous system resection and lateral lymph node dissection were independent risk factors for urinary dysfunction.

Domain-Adaptive Pre-training of Self-Supervised Foundation Models for Medical Image Classification in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy [PDF]

arXiv
Video capsule endoscopy has transformed gastrointestinal endoscopy (GIE) diagnostics by offering a non-invasive method for capturing detailed images of the gastrointestinal tract, enabling early disease detection. However, its potential is limited by the sheer volume of images generated during the imaging procedure, which can take anywhere from 6-8 ...

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) of the Treitz’s angle– a very rare cause of high bowel obstruction [PDF]

, 2016
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are somewhat rare gastrointestinal tumors - approximately 1% to 3% incidence, but they are the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract.

Association between surgical difficulty and tumor location based on subsegments of the Glisson branches in laparoscopic liver resection

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Our study validates the need for a more detailed and accurate tumor location scoring system within the IWATE criteria. The proposed classification based on subsegmental Glisson branches provides a sophisticated tool for assessing LLR difficulty. By providing a more detailed assessment, this new system has the potential to enhance surgical planning ...

Impact of gastrectomy on efficacy and safety of second‐line chemotherapy patients with advanced gastric cancer: Exploratory analysis of two randomized phase III trials

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In an analysis of two RCTs of IRI‐based second‐line chemotherapy for AGC, patients with prior gastrectomy had better OS and PFS than patients without prior gastrectomy. Furthermore, patients with prior gastrectomy had a better prognosis in OS and PFS adjusted for background factors as well. Abstract Aims Second‐line chemotherapy (SLC) improves survival

Possibly more favorable short‐term outcomes with minimally invasive surgery than with open surgery in total gastrectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer: A single high‐volume center study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The MTG group had a significantly lower incidence of severe postoperative complications than the OTG group. Moreover, the incidences of pancreatic fistula and intra‐abdominal abscess were also significantly lower in the MTG than in the OTG group. Additionally, the median hospital stay for the MTG group was significantly shorter than that of the OTG ...
