Deep learning model can improve the diagnosis rate of endoscopic chronic atrophic gastritis: a prospective cohort
1Department of Gastroenterology, Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University, 45 Chang-chun Street, Beijing, 100053, China.
Background And Aims:
Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a precancerous form of gastric cancer. However, with pathological diagnosis as the gold standard, the sensitivity of endoscopic diagnosis of atrophy is only 42%. We developed a deep learning (DL)-based real-time video monitoring diagnostic model for endoscopic CAG and conducted a prospective cohort study to verify whether this diagnostic model could improve the diagnosis rate of endoscopic CAG compared with that of endoscopists.
Methods:
A U-NET network was used to build a real-time video monitoring diagnostic model for endoscopic CAG based on DL. We enrolled 431 patients who underwent gastroscopy from October 1, 2020, to December 1, 2020. To keep the baseline data of enrolled patient uniform and control for confounding factors, we applied a paired design and included the same patients in both the DL and the endoscopist group.
Results:
The DL model improved the diagnosis rate of endoscopic CAG compared with that of endoscopists. Compared with diagnoses by endoscopists, the proportions of moderate and severe CAG in the atrophy patients diagnosed by the DL model were significantly larger, the proportion of "type O" CAG was significantly larger, the number of atrophy sites found was significantly increased, and the number of biopsies was significantly decreased. Compared with diagnoses by endoscopists, in the atrophic lesions diagnosed by the DL model, the proportions of severe atrophy and severe intestinal metaplasia were significantly increased.
Conclusions:
Our study suggested the DL model could improve the diagnosis rate of endoscopic CAG compared with that of endoscopists.

Clinical manifestations of acute gastritis
The patient with acute gastritis may have a rapid onset of symptoms, such as epigastric pain or discomfort, dyspepsia, anorexia, hiccups, or nausea and vomiting, which can last from a few hours to a few days. Erosive or hemorrhagic gastritis may cause bleeding, which may manifest as blood in vomit or as...
