Structured Reporting of Computed Tomography Enterography in Crohn’sDisease Open
Background:: To compare the integrity, clarity, conciseness, etc., of the structured report (SR) versus free-text report (FTR) for computed tomography enterography of Crohn’s disease (CD). Methods:: FTRs and SRs were generated for 30 patie…

Expression of the C-allele of intronic rs8192675 in SLC2A2 is associated with improved glucose response to metformin Open
Glucose is a critical nutrient for energy metabolism. The SLC2A2 gene is essential for glucose sensing and homeostasis, as it encodes the facilitated glucose transporter GLUT2. During diabetes treatment, the C-allele of rs8192675 in SLC2A2…

Role of clinical data and multidetector computed tomography findings in acute superior mesenteric artery embolism Open
For patients with SAME, increased blood lactate and intestinal wall thinning are the risk factors for death; hence, close monitoring may reduce the mortality rate. Clinical observation combined with MDCT signs can significantly improve SMA…

A study on spinal level, length, and branch type of the inferior mesenteric artery and the position relationship between the inferior mesenteric artery, left colic artery, and inferior mesenteric vein Open
Background This study was aimed to explore the clinical application of dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) monoenergetic plus (mono+) imaging to evaluate anatomical variations in the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA). Methods The clinica…

Efficiency of dual-energy computed tomography enterography in the diagnosis of Crohn’s disease Open
Background This retrospective study aimed to investigate the usefulness of the optimized kiloelectron volt (keV) for virtual monoenergetic imaging (VMI) combined with iodine map in dual-energy computed tomography enterography (DECTE) in th…

GPR126 regulates colorectal cancer cell proliferation by mediating HDAC2 and GLI2 expression Open
The G‐protein‐coupled receptor 126 (GPR126) may play an important role in tumor development, although its role remains poorly understood. We found that GPR126 had higher expression in most colorectal cancer cell lines than in normal colon …
