Post written by Zhen Li, MD, from the Department of Gastroenterology, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, Jinan, China. We conducted a randomized controlled trial comparing optical enhancement combined with magnification endoscopy (ME-OE) with conventional white-light endoscopy (WLE) for detection of gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM), gastric intraepithelial neoplasia (GIN), and early gastric cancer (EGC). Detection of …

Surveillance findings in high-risk patients after baseline computer-assisted detection colonoscopy: a propensity score matching analysis
Post written by Wai Keung Leung, MD, from the Department of Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China. This study aimed to determine long-term colonoscopy outcomes in patients after computer-assisted detection (CADe) colonoscopy at baseline. Although CADe colonoscopy has been consistently demonstrated to increase the colorectal adenoma or polyp detection rate, …
Outcomes of interval cholecystectomy after EUS-guided gallbladder drainage: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Post written by Suchapa Arayakarnkul, MD, and Rahul Karna, MD, from the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Mohammad Bilal, MD, from the University of Colorado Anschutz School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado, USA. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we assessed the outcomes of interval cholecystectomy (CCY) after EUS-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD), with a focus on technical successes, surgical techniques, and procedural safety …
Superiority of linear-array EUS over MRCP in diagnosing pancreas divisum: evidence from a multicenter retrospective study in Oriental cohorts (with video)
Post written by Jianbo Ni, MD, Yuqing Mao, MD, and Baiwen Li, MD, PhD, from the Department of Gastroenterology, Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China. Our multicenter study demonstrates that linear-array EUS (L-EUS) outperformed MRCP in diagnosing pancreas divisum (PD), particularly in symptomatic patients. With a sensitivity of 90.8% and an area under the receiver operating …

As the global obesity epidemic intensifies, the demand for durable, effective, and less-invasive interventions continues to rise. Although bariatric surgery remains the reference standard, its uptake …
Creating a standardized tool for the evaluation and comparison of artificial intelligence–based computer-aided detection programs in colonoscopy: a modified Delphi approach
Post written by Sanjay Gadi, MD, and Jeremy Glissen Brown, MD, from Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, USA. Artificial intelligence—based computer-aided detection (CADe) software may improve colorectal cancer outcomes by increasing adenoma detection while reducing miss rates during colonoscopy. CADe has had promising results in controlled environments but mixed results when evaluated in …
