Clinical Trial: Incremental Value of Traditional Chinese Medicine Features in Two-Stage Pre-Endoscopic Prediction

U.S., Aug. 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07784114) titled 'Incremental Value of Traditional Chinese Medicine Features in Two-Stage Pre-Endoscopic Prediction' on Aug. 15.

Brief Summary: This observational study evaluates whether adding Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)-related clinical features improves the performance of machine-learning models that estimate disease risk before colonoscopy.

We compare two modeling strategies that use the same sequential (two-stage) framework:

Western-only models, based on demographic, clinical, and laboratory information commonly used in Western medicine.

TCM-integrated models, which use the same types of Western information plus structured TCM features...
