Article Synopsis
- IBS is a chronic gastrointestinal disorder marked by abdominal pain and altered bowel habits, with limited first-line treatment options focused on specific symptoms.
- GASTRAP DIRECT is a new medical formulation combining chitin-glucan and simethicone, aimed at treating gas-related symptoms in IBS patients.
- In a 4-week trial with 120 IBS patients, 67% reported reduced abdominal pain, along with significant improvements in bloating, distension, and overall quality of life, showing promising efficacy of GASTRAP DIRECT.
Prognostic and risk factors for upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) might have changed overtime because of the increased use of direct oral anticoagulants and improved gastroenterological care. This study was undertaken to assess the outcomes of UGIB in light of these new determinants by establishing a new national, multicenter cohort 10 years after the first. Consecutive outpatients and inpatients with UGIB symptoms consulting at 46 French general hospitals were prospectively included between November 2017 and October 2018.

The aim of this study was to describe changes in incidence and phenotypic presentation of pediatric-onset IBD in northern France during a 24-year period.
Methods: Pediatric-onset IBD (<17 years) was issued from a population-based IBD study in France between 1988 and 2011.
Introduction: The use of human albumin for the management of cirrhosis has increased. Recommendations have been published for therapeutic paracentesis (TP), spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), and type 1 hepatorenal syndrome (HRS). The goal of this survey was to assess the prescription practices of French hepatogastroenterologists.

We investigated this issue through a multicenter randomized controlled trial.
Methods: A total of 193 cirrhotic patients with a Child-Pugh score greater than 8 and sepsis unrelated to SBP were randomly assigned to receive antibiotics plus albumin (1.
