Article Synopsis
- Erythroderma (exfoliative dermatitis) leads to significant metabolic changes, particularly an increase in energy expenditure.
- This increase in total energy expenditure (TEE) is influenced by factors like basal metabolic rate, physical activity, and thermic effect of food.
- The review discusses the mechanisms affecting energy balance in erythroderma and proposes dietary management strategies to address the condition's impact on health.
Background: Endoscopy within 24 h of admission (early endoscopy) is a quality standard in acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB). We aimed to audit time to endoscopy outcomes and identify factors affecting delayed endoscopy (>24 h of admission).
Methods: This prospective multicentre audit enrolled patients admitted with AUGIB who underwent inpatient endoscopy between November and December 2017.
