Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To explore the effective modality for screening biliary atresia, this study includes conducting (1) a retrospective study on evaluating urinary sulfated bile acid (USBA) measure, (2) a prospective study on developing ICT-integrated screening tool, and (3) a cost-effective analysis on different modalities for biliary atresia screening. The sensitivity of USBA measurement was 100% and the specificity was 96.2% using the Okinawa cohort study implemented from 2009-2015. As for a prospective study, we developed the iPhone application, "Baby-poop" and it was released in September 2016. The detection algorithm applied in the application was evaluated using 40 stool pictures including 5 cases of disease and both sensitivity and specificity were 100%. A cost-effectiveness analysis of the three screening methods of biliary atresia, a stool color card, USBA measurement method, and a mobile application is being conducted.
