BACKGROUND: colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) remains a technical challenge, but traction devices show promise in making this procedure easier. However, the efficacy of traction techniques for colorectal ESD is still unknown for inexperienced endoscopists. METHODS: We selected 400 patients who underwent colorectal ESD performed by four inexperienced endoscopists. Each patient in the traction-assisted ESD (TA-ESD) group was matched to a patient in the conventional ESD (C-ESD) group according to propensity scores...

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is a chronic high-morbidity disease with a bidirectional relationship with sleep disturbance (SD) that may occur via the transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 receptor (TRPV1) in the oesophageal mucosa. Yet the related mechanism was still unclear, the aim of this study is to investigate whether TRPV1 is associated with the presence of SD in GORD patients. METHODS: A case-control study was performed...

Background and Aims: Epidemiological studies of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) frequently use the International Classification of Disease (ICD) codes to identify patients. The validity of such ICD codes in a Swedish setting is unknown. Here, we aimed to validate the administrative code for NAFLD in Sweden. Methods: In total, 150 patients with an ICD-10 code for NAFLD (K76.0) from the Karolinska University Hospital between 1 January 2015 and 3 November 2021 were randomly selected. Patients were classified as true or false positives for NAFLD by medical chart review and the positive predictive value (PPV) for the ICD-10 code corresponding to NAFLD was calculated...

BACKGROUND: Esophageal schwannoma (ES) is a rare submucosal tumor, and its complete and safe resection is a topic that deserves special attention. AIM: This study aimed to investigate the clinical value of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in the diagnosis of ES and the clinical efficacy of endoscopic resection for ES. METHODS: The clinical data, endoscopic characteristics, endoscopic treatment, postoperative complications, immunohistochemical results, and follow-up records of patients with ES admitted to the Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January 2012 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed...

OBJECTIVES: Alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) is among the most common indications for liver transplantation (LTX) in Europe and North America, with good five-year survival rates post-LTX. Here we evaluated survival up to and beyond 20 years after LTX for patients with ALD compared to a comparison group. METHODS: Patients with ALD and a comparison group transplanted in the Nordic countries between 1982 and 2020 were included. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Kaplan-Meier curves and predictors of survival were assessed with Cox-regressions...

OBJECTIVES: The short-term efficacy of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for ulcerative colitis (UC) has increasingly been evaluated. However, few studies have examined the long-term efficacy and its predictors. This study aimed to assess the clinical factors affecting the long-term efficacy of FMT for patients with UC. METHODS: This is a retrospective analysis of a prospective trial (NCT01790061) for patients with UC undergoing washed microbiota transplantation (WMT), which is the improved methodology of FMT...

BACKGROUND: Guidelines for the management of upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) are regularly published, yet little is known concerning adherence to recommendations in practice. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to assess adherence to European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) recommendations in patients with non-variceal UGIB. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All hospitalized patients with an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) performed due to suspected non-variceal UGIB at our department were included in a prospective registry...

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of overweight and smoking has changed over time. However, whether the changes in the risk factors are reflected in the prevalence of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is unknown. The aims of this study were to assess the changes in prevalence of GORD and the associated risk factors over time in a general population. METHODS: This was a population-based study using repeated surveys of the Tromsø Study: Tromsø2 (1979-1980, n  = 14,279), Tromsø6 (2007-2008, n  = 11,460) and Tromsø7 (2015-2016, n  = 20,664)...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Gastric reactive hyperplasia (RH) is a common benign lesion of the gastric mucosa that can be resolved by conservative treatment without endoscopic intervention. Some RH lesions are indistinguishable from low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN) lesions of gastric mucosa under endoscopy. The aim of this study was to investigate the morphological features of RH lesions under magnifying endoscopy combined with narrow-band imaging (ME-NBI). METHODS: A retrospective study of 653 patients with superficial suspicious lesions of gastric mucosa was performed...

OBJECTIVES: Crohn's disease (CD) is an inflammatory bowel disease marked by a chronic remission-relapse cycle. Biomarkers are critical to reflect the bowel wall inflammation and detect the treatment response. Here, we investigated a new index-the ratio of neutrophil to uric acid (NUR)-as a predictor of CD activity and responses to infliximab (IFX) treatment. METHODS: Clinical and laboratory data were retrieved for CD patients and healthy control subjects from an electronic medical records database...

BACKGROUND: Intestinal ultrasound (IUS) is a non-invasive tool for monitoring Crohn's disease (CD) activity. Recently, sonographic activity scores, including the International Bowel Ultrasound Segmental Activity Score (IBUS-SAS) and Simple Ultrasound Activity Score for CD (SUS-CD), were developed. This study aimed to assess their clinical application value. METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled patients with CD from March 2021 to June 2022. The diagnostic performance of the ultrasound scores was evaluated using the simplified endoscopic score for CD (SES-CD)...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to characterize the drug utilization and switch patterns of biological treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS: Using Danish national registries, this nationwide study included individuals diagnosed with UC or CD, bio-naïve at the initiation of treatment with infliximab, adalimumab, vedolizumab, golimumab, or ustekinumab in 2015-2020. Hazard ratios of discontinuing the first treatment or switching to another biological treatment were explored using Cox regression...

BACKGROUND: Studies on aspirin's effects on metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) are limited. The aim of this study was to assess the association between aspirin and all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in individuals with MAFLD. METHODS: Data were acquired from the National Health And Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) III. MAFLD diagnosis was consistent with that of international expert consensus. The independent association between aspirin and all-cause and CVD mortality in participants with MAFLD was evaluated by multiple Cox regression...

OBJECTIVE: Vedolizumab (VDZ) for subcutaneous (SC) administration has recently become available. We aimed to assess feasibility, safety and clinical outcome when switching from intravenous (IV) to SC VDZ maintenance treatment in a real world cohort of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) followed by therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). METHODS: Eligible IBD patients were switched from IV to SC treatment and assessed six months prior to switch, at baseline and six, twelve and twenty-six weeks after switch...

BACKGROUND: Conventional hepatic artery and portal vein clamping strategies can prevent blood loss and ischemia-reperfusion liver injury, and such preventative measures are the key to successful liver surgery. However, ischemic-induced damage to cholangiocytes is rarely considered. Here, we aimed to investigate the effect of different hepatic inflow interruption methods on bile duct injury. METHODS: Forty rats were randomly grouped as sham, Pringle maneuver (PM) and hepatic arterial blood flow open (HAFO) groups...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The clinical course of patients with liver cirrhosis and adherence to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) screening guidelines are not well studied in the Netherlands. We investigated this and potential risk factors for decompensation and transplant-free survival (TFS) in a large regional cohort. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with confirmed liver cirrhosis in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Clinical parameters, decompensation events, development of HCC, and medication use were extracted from medical records...
