Background And Aims: Deep learning is an innovative algorithm based on neural networks. Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is considered the criterion standard for detecting small-bowel diseases. Manual examination of WCE is time-consuming and can benefit from automatic detection using artificial intelligence (AI). We aimed to perform a systematic review of the current literature pertaining to deep learning implementation in WCE.

Methods: We conducted a search in PubMed for all original publications on the subject of deep learning applications in WCE published between January 1, 2016 and December 15, 2019. Evaluation of the risk of bias was performed using tailored Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2. Pooled sensitivity and specificity were calculated. Summary receiver operating characteristic curves were plotted.

Results: Of the 45 studies retrieved, 19 studies were included. All studies were retrospective. Deep learning applications for WCE included detection of ulcers, polyps, celiac disease, bleeding, and hookworm. Detection accuracy was above 90% for most studies and diseases. Pooled sensitivity and specificity for ulcer detection were .95 (95% confidence interval [CI], .89-.98) and .94 (95% CI, .90-.96), respectively. Pooled sensitivity and specificity for bleeding or bleeding source were .98 (95% CI, .96-.99) and .99 (95% CI, .97-.99), respectively.

Conclusions: Deep learning has achieved excellent performance for the detection of a range of diseases in WCE. Notwithstanding, current research is based on retrospective studies with a high risk of bias. Thus, future prospective, multicenter studies are necessary for this technology to be implemented in the clinical use of WCE.

hERGAT: predicting hERG blockers using graph attention mechanism through atom- and molecule-level interaction analyses.

J Cheminform

January 2025

Department of Intelligent Electronics and Computer Engineering, Chonnam National University, Gwangju, Republic of Korea.

The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel plays a critical role in the electrical activity of the heart, and its blockers can cause serious cardiotoxic effects. Thus, screening for hERG channel blockers is a crucial step in the drug development process. Many in silico models have been developed to predict hERG blockers, which can efficiently save time and resources.

Background: Assessing the difficulty of impacted lower third molar (ILTM) surgical extraction is crucial for predicting postoperative complications and estimating procedure duration. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a convolutional neural network (CNN) in determining the angulation, position, classification and difficulty index (DI) of ILTM. Additionally, we compared these parameters and the time required for interpretation among deep learning (DL) models, sixth-year dental students (DSs), and general dental practitioners (GPs) with and without CNN assistance.

Background: Early detection and diagnosis of cancer are vital to improving outcomes for patients. Artificial intelligence (AI) models have shown promise in the early detection and diagnosis of cancer, but there is limited evidence on methods that fully exploit the longitudinal data stored within electronic health records (EHRs). This review aims to summarise methods currently utilised for prediction of cancer from longitudinal data and provides recommendations on how such models should be developed.

Existing prognostic models are useful for estimating the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma patients, but there remains room for improvement. In the current study, we developed a deep learning model based on histopathological images to predict the recurrence risk of lung adenocarcinoma patients. The efficiency of the model was then evaluated in independent multicenter cohorts.
