Machine Learning Model Identifies Gut Biomarkers That May Help Diagnose IBD Patients (Medscape)

At the ECCO 2025 Congress, researchers presented a study showing that machine learning can identify gut microbial biomarkers that differentiate IBD patients—particularly those with Crohn’s disease—from healthy individuals. The study analyzed stool samples from over 3,700 participants, finding that supervised machine learning had the highest diagnostic accuracy (AUC 0.971).
