INTRODUCTION: Strategies to promote high quality endoscopy in children require consensus around pediatric-specific quality standards and indicators. Using a rigorous guideline development process, the international Pediatric Endoscopy Quality Improvement Network (PEnQuIN) was developed to support continuous quality improvement efforts within and across pediatric endoscopy services. AREAS COVERED: This review presents a framework, informed by the PEnQuIN guidelines, for assessing endoscopist competence, granting procedural privileges, audit and feedback, and for skill remediation, when required...

INTRODUCTION: Pancreas ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a frequently lethal malignancy that poses unique therapeutic challenges. The current mainstay of therapy for metastatic PDAC (mPDAC) is cytotoxic chemotherapy. NALIRIFOX (liposomal irinotecan, fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin) is an emerging standard of care in the metastatic setting. An evolving understanding of PDAC pathogenesis is driving a shift toward targeted therapy. Olaparib, a poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, has regulatory approval for maintenance therapy in BRCA-mutated mPDAC along with other targeted agents receiving disease-agnostic approvals including for PDAC with rare fusions and mismatch repair deficiency...

INTRODUCTION: Chronic pancreatitis is a common inflammatory disease that severely impairs patients' quality of life, mainly due to abdominal pain which is the most frequent symptom. Current guidelines suggest medical therapy as the first line intervention based on a stepwise use of analgesics (i.e. NSAIDs followed by weak opioids and later by strong oppioids), which is rarely effective in improving pain and often leads to opioid addiction. Interventional procedures are therefore frequently needed...

INTRODUCTION: Insulinomas are the most common functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) that lead to incapacitating hypoglycemia. Guidelines recommend surgical resection as the mainstay of management. However, surgery is fraught with complications, causing significant peri/post-operative morbidity. Since insulinomas are usually benign, solitary, small (<2 cm), and do not need lymphadenectomy, hence, in this regard, endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) is now being increasingly performed, to circumvent these adverse events and impairment of pancreatic function...

BACKGROUND: Liaoning score has been developed and validated to predict the risk of esophageal varices in liver cirrhosis. This study aimed to further modify the Liaoning score by combining clinical and laboratory parameters to predict the long-term outcome of cirrhotic patients. METHODS: First, 474 cirrhotic patients were retrospectively enrolled from Shenyang, China as the training cohort. Independent predictors for death were identified by competing risk analyses, and then a new prognostic model, called as modified Liaoning score, was developed...

The effectiveness and risks of anticoagulant therapy in cirrhotic patients with non-symptomatic portal vein thrombosis(PVT) remain unclear. We conducted a multicenter, Zelen-designed randomized controlled trial to determine the effectiveness of warfarin in cirrhotic patients with non-symptomatic PVT during one-year follow up. In brief, 64 patients were 1:1 randomly divided into the anticoagulation group or the untreated group. The probability of recanalization was significantly higher in the anticoagulation group than those untreated in both ITT analysis(71...
