Filter by:Study objective: To establish a quality control system for gastrointestinal endoscopy based on artificial intelligence technology and an auxiliary diagnosis system that can perform lesion identification, improving the detection rate of early gastrointestinal cancer while standardizing, normalizing, and homogenizing the endoscopic treatment in primary hospitals (including some of the primary hospitals, which are participating in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Medical Consortium) under Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Artificial Intelligence Cloud Platform as the hardware base. Study design: This study is a prospective, multi-center, real-world study.
Nitrous oxide (commonly known as 'laughing gas') is often used during dental and other outpatient procedures, because it is easy to administer, is short-acting and rapidly clears from the body following the procedure. The investigators hypothesize that use of Nitrous oxide during GI endoscopy may enhance patient comfort during the procedure and speed-up post-procedure recovery, while minimizing the fatigue and mental fogginess some patients report the day after receiving standard sedative and narcotic drugs used routinely for the procedure. The investigators are interested in determining if adding Nitrous Oxide to commonly used sedation drugs will decrease fatigue, mental fogginess, and nausea/vomiting, as well as determine when the patient felt fully recovered from the effects of all sedatives given for the procedure.
Mitochondrial DNA mutations in normal gastric tissue, early gastric cancer and advanced gastric cancer were identified by single cell sequencing, and the origin of gastric stem cells was traced and new molecular markers were found. At the same time, organize industry-university-research-medical inspection joint research, aiming at the advanced layout of new structural and functional imaging technologies, combined with some new imaging technologies, such as holography, fluorescence, etc., to explore and develop a new composite endoscopic imaging technology that is advanced, original and suitable for China's national conditions, in order to develop a prototype of multimodal structural and functional imaging digestive endoscope without contrast agent.
In this study, the investigators proposed an artificial intelligence-based biliary stricture navigation system in MRCP-based ERCP, which can instruct the direction of guide wire and the position of stent placement in real time.
This study aims to test the hypothesis that the diagnosis for histological type, histological grade, LAUREN type, HER-2 expression, MSI/dMMR status, and EBV status in gastric cancer is at least as reliable when performed on endoscopic biopsy specimens as on surgical resection specimens.
Patients who received the indication for endoscopic diagnostics using gastroscopy in transnasal technique will be included into the study. The examination is carried out in standard technique and is not influenced by the study. Following the examination, patient data is collected pseudonymously and a questionnaire is submitted to the patient.
The main purpose of this trial is to evaluate two devices used in the treatment of Zenker Diverticulum using flexible endoscopy (LigaSure and SB-knife). Analyze the technical success, clinical success, relapses, complications, and the mean procedure time with each device prospectively in order to transfer objective and uniform results to routine clinical practice.
Common complications of the Boston keratoprosthesis type 1 (KPro) surgery include retroprosthetic membrane formation, glaucoma, and retinal detachment. Often pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is performed at the same time as KPro surgery for different indications. It has been shown to reduce postoperative complications in comparison to when it is performed after the KPro surgery. Patients who receive a complete PPV with peeling of the anterior hyaloid membrane have a lower incidence of retroprosthetic membrane formation and less vision loss due to glaucoma when compared to patients with partial PPV or anterior vitrectomy. During a complete PPV, peeling of the anterior hyaloid membrane is a difficult step because visualisation is poor, but it can be improved using endoscopy. The investigators suggest that peeling of the anterior hyaloid membrane assisted by endoscopy during KPro surgery would decrease postoperative complications in comparison to a PPV done after KPro surgery and without endoscopy.
Background: Gastric injections of Botulinum toxin A (BTA) may induce changes in gastric emptying and body weight, but results vary. BTA dose and depth of injection may affect efficacy. This study assess changes in satiation, symptoms, and body weight after endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided injection of 100 U BTA into gastric antral muscularis propria of obese subjects. Methods: Open label study of twenty five healthy, obese adults (age=21-49 years, body mass index 35 = kg/m2) who received 100 U and were followed for 16 weeks. Measures included satiation (by maximum tolerated volume [MTV] during nutrient drink test), gastrointestinal symptoms (by the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale) and body weight.
Colonoscopy is one of the most common endoscopic procedures today. However, it sometimes can be a serious challenging situation both for the clinicians and patients. In this study, the investigators tried to determine which colonoscopic position allows easy, fast and comfortable way.
