Artificial intelligence: clinical applications and future advancement in gastrointestinal cancers.

One of the foremost causes of global healthcare burden is cancer of the gastrointestinal tract. The medical records, lab results, radiographs, endoscopic images, tissue samples, and medical histories of patients with gastrointestinal malignancies provide an enormous amount of medical data. There are encouraging signs that the advent of artificial intelligence could enhance the treatment of gastrointestinal issues with this data.

Key concepts and a world-wide look at plant recruitment networks.

Plant-plant interactions are major determinants of the dynamics of terrestrial ecosystems. There is a long tradition in the study of these interactions, their mechanisms and their consequences using experimental, observational and theoretical approaches. Empirical studies overwhelmingly focus at the level of species pairs or small sets of species.

A Pilot Study of the Effectiveness of a Short Course of Rifaximin 2200 mg/day on Abdominal Symptoms and its Effects on Quality of Life in Patients with Moderate to Severe Diarrhea-Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

Background And Objective: Rifaximin is used to treat diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D). However, determining the most effective regimen remains a challenge. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a 10-day high-dose course of rifaximin (2200 mg/day) and its effects on both abdominal symptoms and quality of life (QOL) in patients with IBS-D.

The dysregulation and clinical relevance of lncRNAs MYOSLID and SFTA1P in colorectal cancer patients.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a very common cancer worldwide. CRC is characterized by some changes in the expression of oncogenic and tumor suppressor genes. These changes are associated with dysregulation of non-coding RNAs, including long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs).
