Journal of Patient-Centered Research and Reviews

Purpose: Adjunctive use of photodynamic therapy in combination with scaling and root planing for periodontal maintenance offers an alternative to antibiotic therapy, potentially mitigating the risk of antibiotic resistance and its genotoxic or mutagenic effects. This systematic review analyzed studies, as of January 2023, that included the effects of a single application of photodynamic therapy in residual periodontal pockets with the probing depth and clinical attachment level as the primary and secondary outcomes, respectively.

Methods: PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, as well as the US National Institutes of Health and WHO Clinical Trials Registry, were searched for eligible …

Section of Gastroenterology

Background: Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds considerable promise for diagnostics in the field of gastroenterology. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to assess the diagnostic accuracy of AI models compared with the gold standard of experts and histopathology for the diagnosis of various gastrointestinal (GI) luminal pathologies including polyps, neoplasms, and inflammatory bowel disease.
Methods: We searched PubMed, CINAHL, Wiley Cochrane Library, and Web of Science electronic databases to identify studies assessing the diagnostic performance of AI models for GI luminal pathologies. We extracted binary diagnostic accuracy data and constructed contingency tables to derive the outcomes of interest: sensitivity and specificity. …
