Background and Aims: Inflammatory mediator S100A9 is dramatically elevated in ulcerative colitis and correlates with disease severity. S100A9 is a potential molecule to target for the treatment of colitis, but to date, there is no effective targeting ...

A Diagnostic Conundrum in a Newly Diagnosed Ulcerative Colitis Patient Who Presented with Pleuropericardial Effusion [PDF]
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting mainly the colon and presenting with diarrhea, bloody defecation andabdominal pain. Although cardiac and/or pulmonary involvement has been reported in patients with ulcerative colitis, it ...

Ulcerative Colitis Mayo Endoscopic Scoring Classification with Active Learning and Generative Data Augmentation [PDF]
Endoscopic imaging is commonly used to diagnose Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and classify its severity. It has been shown that deep learning based methods are effective in automated analysis of these images and can potentially be used to aid medical doctors.

Ulcerative colitis-risk loci on chromosomes 1p36 and 12q15 found by genome-wide association study. [PDF]
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon that presents as diarrhea and gastrointestinal bleeding. We performed a genome-wide association study using DNA samples from 1,052 individuals with ulcerative colitis and preexisting data ...

Detecting ulcerative colitis from colon samples using efficient feature selection and machine learning [PDF]
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is one of the most common forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) characterized by inflammation of the mucosal layer of the colon. Diagnosis of UC is based on clinical symptoms, and then confirmed based on endoscopic, histologic and laboratory findings.

Patch-level instance-group discrimination with pretext-invariant learning for colitis scoring [PDF]
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), in particular ulcerative colitis (UC), is graded by endoscopists and this assessment is the basis for risk stratification and therapy monitoring. Presently, endoscopic characterisation is largely operator dependant leading to sometimes undesirable clinical outcomes for patients with IBD. We focus on the Mayo Endoscopic

Background and Aim The number of older patients with ulcerative colitis is increasing; however, limited data exist regarding the differences between elderly‐ and non‐elderly‐onset ulcerative colitis.

Automatic Estimation of Ulcerative Colitis Severity from Endoscopy Videos using Ordinal Multi-Instance Learning [PDF]
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by relapsing inflammation of the large intestine. The severity of UC is often represented by the Mayo Endoscopic Subscore (MES) which quantifies mucosal disease activity from endoscopy videos.

The incidence of ulcerative colitis has been increasing in recent years, and its manifestation at a young age has become a trend that is prognostically unfavorable.
