Introduction: This study investigated the detection rate of colorectal neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) using large-scale colonoscopy data.
Methods: This cross-sectional analysis used large-scale data from a Japanese multicenter observational study of colonoscopies performed from 2010 to 2020.
Results: Among 82,005 colonoscopy cases, colorectal NENs were identified in 71 (67 of which were neuroendocrine tumors), with a detection rate of 0.087% (95% confidence interval: 0.069-0.109). Most were small rectal lesions, with only 4 >10 mm in size and 3 located in the colon.
Discussion: The detection rate of colorectal NENs during colonoscopy is substantially higher than expected.

Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) is a major type of breast cancer. The utilization of inhibitors targeting histone methyltransferases introduces novel therapeutic avenues for the treatment of cancer. Immunohistochemistry, Western blot, and reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction experiments were applied to assess the levels of EHMT2 in IDC and adjacent tissues.

Introduction: This study aimed to examine the impact of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection on the occurrence and prognosis of Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP).
Methodology: A total of 120 children diagnosed with HSP were selected as the experimental group, and 100 healthy children who underwent physical examinations were the control group. We compared renal function markers and quantified 24-hour urine protein in HSP children with different EBV infection statuses, and analyzed the association between EBV infection and Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN).

Introduction: To evaluate the characteristics of patients who have undergone surgical operations due to brain abscess and to assess the risk factors for mortality and the outcomes.
Methodology: Patients who have undergone surgical operations due to brain abscess between January 2014 and January 2024 in our hospital were evaluated retrospectively. Patients were divided into 2 groups to determine poor outcome predictive factors.

Cervical cancer remains a significant cause of female mortality worldwide, primarily due to abnormal cell growth in the cervix. This study proposes an automated classification method to enhance detection accuracy and efficiency, addressing contrast and noise issues in traditional diagnostic approaches. The impact of image enhancement on classification performance is evaluated by comparing transfer learning-based Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models trained on both original and enhanced images.
