From Endoscopic Inspection to Gene-Expression: A Thorough Assessment of the Duodenal Mucosa After Resurfacing-A Prospective Study.

Aims: Duodenal Mucosal Resurfacing (DMR) is an endoscopic ablation technique aimed at improving glycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Although the exact underlying mechanism is still unclear, it is postulated that the DMR-induced improvements are the result of changes in the duodenal mucosa. For this reason, we assessed macroscopic and microscopic changes in the duodenal mucosa induced by DMR + GLP-1RA.

Routine third-trimester ultrasonography and child neurodevelopmental outcomes: a follow-up of a pragmatic cluster-randomised controlled trial.

Aims/background: Routine third-trimester ultrasonography is increasingly conducted to screen for foetal growth restriction (FGR) and reduce adverse perinatal and child neurodevelopmental outcomes using timely obstetric management. While it did not reduce adverse perinatal outcomes in previous trials, evidence regarding its association with child neurodevelopmental outcome is absent. We examined whether routine third-trimester ultrasonography is positively associated with child developmental and behavioural/emotional outcomes compared to usual care.

Mothers' and fathers' neural responses toward gender-stereotype violations by their own children.

Gender stereotypes facilitate people's processing of social information by providing assumptions about expected behaviors and preferences. When gendered expectations are violated, people often respond negatively, both on a behavioral and neural level. Little is known about the impact of family kinship on the behavioral and neural reactions to gender-stereotype violations.
