Polyp of large intestine

This study compared two methods for removing non-cancerous colon polyps that are 10-19 mm in size: cold snare (no heat) and hot snare (uses heat). 216 adults undergoing colonoscopy were randomly assigned to one method. The goal was to see if cold snare is as effective and safe as…

This trial tested a new method called underwater ESD for removing large, flat colon polyps. Instead of using gas to inflate the colon, doctors fill it with saline water. The goal was to see if this reduces complications like bleeding or perforation and improves complete removal. …

This study tested whether a device that uses light to monitor blood flow (photoplethysmography) could help doctors manage fluids better during colorectal surgery. The goal was to reduce complications after surgery. 160 adults having colorectal surgery took part. The approach is n…

This study tested a traditional Chinese medicine formula called modified Si Ni San in 32 adults who had colorectal polyps removed. The goal was to see if the herbal treatment could improve gut bacteria balance and reduce inflammation better than standard probiotics. Results may h…

This completed trial tested whether a 3D imaging device helps doctors more accurately classify colon polyps and adenomas during colonoscopy compared to standard 2D imaging. 460 adults with colorectal polyps were randomly assigned to either 3D or 2D imaging before polyp removal. T…

This trial tests how accurately an AI system, called GI Genius, can identify which polyps found during a colonoscopy are adenomas, the type that can become cancer. About 395 adults undergoing screening, diagnostic, or surveillance colonoscopy will receive the AI-assisted procedur…

This study tested an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that helps doctors diagnose colorectal polyps during a colonoscopy. The AI analyzes images from a special high-magnification endoscope to predict whether a polyp is cancerous or not. The goal is to improve accuracy and reduce…

This study tested a new laser-based device (AccuMeasure) to measure the size of colon polyps during a colonoscopy. Accurate polyp size is important because it helps doctors decide how often patients need follow-up screenings to prevent colorectal cancer. The study involved 138 ad…

This study tested whether an AI tool that highlights suspicious areas during colonoscopy helps doctors find more polyps. Over 400 adults aged 40-80 undergoing screening or diagnostic colonoscopy were randomly assigned to standard colonoscopy or AI-assisted colonoscopy. The main g…

This study looks at whether a computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) system can help doctors better identify small colorectal polyps (5 mm or smaller) during a colonoscopy. Over 360 doctors will use the system to predict whether polyps are harmless or precancerous. The goal is to see if…

This study looked at 846 people who had a positive stool test for colorectal cancer and needed a follow-up colonoscopy. Researchers wanted to understand how involved patients felt in making decisions about their care and how satisfied they were with the entire screening and treat…

This study tested whether starting a colonoscopy with the patient lying on their back (supine) or on their left side (left-lateral) makes a difference. Researchers measured how long it took to complete the procedure, how much pain patients felt, and how difficult the procedure wa…

This study tested whether a short training video on 'blink features' (visual clues like redness or ulcers) could help medical students and non-gastroenterology trainees better detect cancer in images of colon polyps. 65 participants completed an online survey before and after wat…

This study looked at why some people develop colorectal polyps (growths that can turn into cancer) and others do not. Researchers collected blood, urine, saliva, and tissue samples from over 8,000 adults getting a colonoscopy. They also gathered information about lifestyle and he…
