The mediating role of cognitive arousal in the relationship between impulsivity and sleep quality among college students: a random intercept cross-lagged panel analysis.

Impulsivity, cognitive arousal, and sleep quality are critical factors affecting college students' well-being and academic performance. While impulsivity negatively influences sleep quality, the mediating role of cognitive arousal remains underexplored. The present study assesses how impulsivity affects sleep quality through cognitive arousal.

Hepatic venous wedge pressure gradient measurements in intestinal failure associated liver disease.

Objectives: Historically, in children with intestinal failure associated liver disease (IFALD), the presence of splenomegaly and moderate bridging fibrosis would be considered as evidence of advanced liver disease and portal hypertension and be recommended for liver-inclusive intestinal transplant graft. In our experience, the assessment of portal hypertension based on conventional investigations, which are well established in other chronic liver diseases, could be misleading in some children with IFALD, and further investigations could help in assessing the severity of liver disease. Hepatic venous wedge pressure gradient (HVWPG) is used in chronic liver diseases for objectively assessing the severity of portal hypertension.

Emerging applications of NLP and large language models in gastroenterology and hepatology: a systematic review.

Background And Aim: In the last years, natural language processing (NLP) has transformed significantly with the introduction of large language models (LLM). This review updates on NLP and LLM applications and challenges in gastroenterology and hepatology.

Methods: Registered with PROSPERO (CRD42024542275) and adhering to PRISMA guidelines, we searched six databases for relevant studies published from 2003 to 2024, ultimately including 57 studies.

Inter-Rater Disagreements in Applying the Montreal Classification for Crohn's Disease: The Five-Nations Survey Study.

Background: The Montreal classification has been widely used in Crohn's disease since 2005 to categorize patients by the age of onset (A), disease location (L), behavior (B), and upper gastrointestinal tract and perianal involvement. With evolving management paradigms in Crohn's disease, we aimed to assess the performance of gastroenterologists in applying the Montreal classification.

Methods: An online survey was conducted among participants at an international educational conference on inflammatory bowel diseases.

Risk of atherosclerosis-related diseases in polymyositis and dermatomyositis patients: A large-scale population-based study.

Background And Aims: Several systemic autoimmune diseases predispose to the enhancement of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD). These findings underline the role of inflammation in atherogenesis. Dermatomyositis (DM) and polymyositis (PM) are polygenic autoimmune disorders involving mainly skeletal muscles.
