Laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) are precancerous colorectal lesions characterized by a flat morphology. This study reveals a mechanochemical pathway through which a soft matrix microenvironment diminishes spatial constraints in intestinal adenomas. This process promotes deficiencies in tight junction proteins, mediated by the mechanoreceptor ADORA2B ...

Computer-assisted polyp matching between optical colonoscopy and CT colonography: a phantom study
Potentially precancerous polyps detected with CT colonography (CTC) need to be removed subsequently, using an optical colonoscope (OC). Due to large colonic deformations induced by the colonoscope, even very experienced colonoscopists find it difficult ...

Abstract Background Spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, a rare but debilitating condition, have been described following spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) in case reports. However, the nature of the potential association between SMT and CSF leak is uncertain, and symptoms such as neck pain or headache may reflect preexisting leaks rather than ...

A UK single‐center pilot experience using a novel robotic inchworm colonoscopy system
Abstract Introduction Colonoscopy is the gold standard investigation in the lower gastrointestinal tract. However, 75% of patients can experience pain with moderate sedation. The application of robotic technology aims to overcome difficulties faced including better utilization of rooms for advanced procedures and to achieve a complete colonoscopy in ...

Abstract Introduction Gastrointestinal cancers account for 26% of cancer incidence and 35% of cancer‐related deaths globally. Early detection is crucial but often limited by white light endoscopy (WLE), which misses subtle lesions. Texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI), introduced in 2020, enhances texture, brightness, and color, addressing WLE's
