Background Gastric polyps are important as some have malignant potential. If such polyps are left untreated, gastric cancer may result. The malignant potential depends on the histological type of the ...

Most colon cancers are assumed to have a premalignant adenomatous polyp phase, therefore colonoscopic detection and polypectomy provides the opportunity for cancer prevention. Some patients who have ...

Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have shown that computer-aided detection (CADe) can significantly improve adenoma detection rates (ADRs). In contrast, implementation studies did not show ADR ...

Background Chronic inflammation and elevated reactive oxygen species are key contributors to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ...

In patients with small intestinal Crohn’s disease (CD), there is a need for a simple, non-invasive test to reduce dependence on invasive procedures (eg, enteroscopy) and costly imaging (eg, MRI or CT ...

A high adenoma detection rate (ADR) is vital for effective colorectal cancer (CRC) screening, but evidence suggests limited additional benefit beyond a certain threshold. In a pooled analysis of five ...

Background Liver metastasis is a major cause of mortality in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Understanding how CRC cells influence the formation of hepatic premetastatic niches (PMNs) is ...

Tissue epithelia maintain their lineage identity under normal conditions but occasionally undergo ‘reprogramming’ into another lineage—a phenomenon known as metaplasia. Notable examples include ...

Background Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects over 30% of the general population and is ...

We have carefully reviewed the article titled ‘Construction of exosome non-coding RNA feature for non-invasive, early detection of gastric cancer patients by machine learning: a multi-cohort study’ by ...
