EUS-guided transluminal drainage using lumen-apposing metal stents with or without coaxial plastic stents for treatment of walled-off necrotizing pancreatitis: a prospective bicentric randomized controlled trial
Lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMSs) have proven to be effective for drainage of pancreatic walled-off necrosis (WON), although associated adverse events (AEs) have been reported. Anchoring coaxial double-pigtail plastic stents (DPSs) within LAMSs have been proposed to prevent LAMS-related AEs but have not been assessed in prospective studies. We aimed to evaluate the utility of such measures with a randomized controlled trial.Underwater versus conventional EMR of large nonpedunculated colorectal lesions: a multicenter randomized controlled trial
Underwater EMR (UEMR) is an alternative procedure to conventional EMR (CEMR) to treat large, nonpedunculated colorectal lesions (LNPCLs). In this multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial, we aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of UEMR versus CEMR on LNPCLs.Usefulness of a novel computer-aided detection system for colorectal neoplasia: a randomized controlled trial
Artificial intelligence–based computer-aid detection (CADe) devices have been recently tested in colonoscopies, increasing the adenoma detection rate (ADR), mainly in Asian populations. However, evidence for the benefit of these devices in the occidental population is still low. We tested a new CADe device, namely, ENDO-AID (OIP-1) (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan), in clinical practice.Timing of colonoscopy in acute lower GI bleeding: a multicenter retrospective cohort study
We aimed to determine the optimal timing of colonoscopy and factors that benefit patients who undergo early colonoscopy for acute lower GI bleeding.Comparison of 22-gauge standard and Franseen needles in EUS-guided tissue acquisition for diagnosing solid pancreatic lesions: a multicenter randomized controlled trial
This large multicenter randomized controlled trial compared the diagnostic yields of 22-gauge standard and 22-gauge Franseen needles for EUS-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) of solid pancreatic lesions.Reliability and responsiveness of endoscopic disease activity assessment in eosinophilic esophagitis
Endoscopic outcomes have become important measures of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) disease activity, including as an endpoint in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). We evaluated the operating properties of endoscopic measures for use in EoE RCTs.
