The efficacy and safety of per-nasal "GTS partner" assisted traction technique for gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection: a prospective single-center randomized clinical trial.

Background: Since the snare traction-assisted ESD has been proven effective in treating flat lesions of the digestive tract, we modified and innovated the process and path of the traditional snare entering the digestive tract, aiming to investigate the efficacy and safety of using the per-nasal "GTS partner" assisted traction technology in gastric ESD.

Methods: Patients with superficial gastric neoplasms were prospectively enrolled between November 2022 and May 2024 and randomly assigned to a conventional ESD (C-ESD) group or per-nasal "GTS partner" traction-assisted ESD (GTS-ESD) group. The primary outcomes were procedure time and dissection speed.

Instant duodenal decompression after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography can effectively reduce the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis and hyperamylasemia.

Background: Post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) is significantly influenced by the reflux of duodenal fluid. While gastrointestinal decompression represents a fundamental approach in acute pancreatitis management, the effectiveness of immediate duodenal decompression following ERCP to prevent PEP remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the impact of immediate duodenal decompression after ERCP on reducing the incidence of hyperamylasemia and PEP.
