Article Synopsis
- The study explored the relationship between dietary vitamin B6 intake and chronic constipation using data from the 2009-2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
- It found that higher consumption of vitamin B6 is linked to a lower prevalence of constipation, particularly among men and those who consume alcohol, with statistical significance established (p < 0.05).
- The conclusion suggests that increasing vitamin B6 intake may reduce the risk of chronic constipation, but further research is needed to confirm these findings over the long term.
Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of quantitative parameters from dual-energy CT (DECT) and basic CT features in predicting the postoperative early recurrence (ER) of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Methods: In this study, patients with PDAC who underwent radical resection and DECT from 2018 to 2022 were enrolled and categorised into ER and non-ER groups. The clinical data, basic CT features and DECT parameters of all patients were analyzed.
Introduction: Youhua Kuijie prescription (YHKJ) is a hospital preparation that is composed of nine kinds of herbs. Sulfasalazine (SASP) is widely used as a first-line clinical treatment for UC. Traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine have their own advantages in the treatment of UC, and the mechanism of YHKJ combined with SASP in the treatment of UC needs to be investigated.

- The study investigates how extracellular volume (ECV) and fat fraction (FF) from dual-energy CT (DECT) can predict acute pancreatitis after surgery known as pancreatoduodenectomy (PD).
- Researchers analyzed data from 69 patients who underwent DECT and PD, finding that a lower ECV fraction is linked to a higher risk of postpancreatectomy acute pancreatitis (PPAP).
- The results suggest that measuring ECV fraction can help surgeons identify patients at greater risk for PPAP, which could improve patient management and outcomes.
