Modeling the Effect of Sleeve Gastrectomy on Gastric Digestion in the Stomach: Insights from Multiphase Flow Modeling [PDF]
The geometry and motility of the stomach play a critical role in the digestion of ingested liquid meals. Sleeve gastrectomy, a common type of bariatric surgery used to reduce the size of the stomach, significantly alters the stomach's anatomy and motility, which impacts gastric emptying and digestion.

Mathematical modeling of Buruli ulcer spread [PDF]
We propose two approaches to a model deduction for Buruli ulcer spread in a tissue, prove global existence of solutions to the obtained macroscopic cross-diffusion PDE-ODE systems, and perform numerical simulations to illustrate the behavior of solutions under various scenarios and compare the outcome of the two approaches.

A camel with a less strict diet [PDF]
A camel can carry $B$ bananas on its back. It can have $2$ bananas at a time in its stomach. For each mile the camel walks, the amount of bananas in its stomach decreases $1$. As soon as the amount of bananas in the camel's stomach is at most $1$, it can eat a new banana.

Neural Radiance Fields for Novel View Synthesis in Monocular Gastroscopy [PDF]
Enabling the synthesis of arbitrarily novel viewpoint images within a patient's stomach from pre-captured monocular gastroscopic images is a promising topic in stomach diagnosis. Typical methods to achieve this objective integrate traditional 3D reconstruction techniques, including structure-from-motion (SfM) and Poisson surface reconstruction.

Improving Limited Supervised Foot Ulcer Segmentation Using Cross-Domain Augmentation [PDF]
Diabetic foot ulcers pose health risks, including higher morbidity, mortality, and amputation rates. Monitoring wound areas is crucial for proper care, but manual segmentation is subjective due to complex wound features and background variation. Expert annotations are costly and time-intensive, thus hampering large dataset creation.

Predicting ulcer in H&E images of inflammatory bowel disease using domain-knowledge-driven graph neural network [PDF]
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) involves chronic inflammation of the digestive tract, with treatment options often burdened by adverse effects. Identifying biomarkers for personalized treatment is crucial. While immune cells play a key role in IBD, accurately identifying ulcer regions in whole slide images (WSIs) is essential for characterizing these ...
