Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition, Department of Pediatrics, Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons and New York- Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital, 630 West 168Th Street, New York, NY, PH17-105H10032, USA.
Purpose: To propose a gastrointestinal bleeding management algorithm that incorporates an endoscopic and imaging scoring system and specifies management of vascular complication from button battery ingestion.
Recent Findings: Button batteries (BB) are found in many electronic devices and ingestions are associated with serious complications especially in cases of unwitnessed ingestions, prolonged impaction, and in children less than 5 years of age. Gastrointestinal bleeding from BB related vascular injury is rare but often rapidly fatal, with a mortality rate as high as 81%.

With the widespread application of systemic treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma, liver injury caused by molecular targeted drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors has become a common clinical problem. The Chinese Society of Hepatology organized relevant domestic experts to summarize and analyze the adverse liver reactions and diagnosis and treatment progress related to systemic treatment of liver cancer at home and abroad, and formulated the "Consensus on the management of liver injury associated with targeted drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors for hepatocellular carcinoma," aiming to provide reasonable suggestions and decision-making references for clinical physicians in liver disease and related specialties in the monitoring, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of liver injury during the treatment of targeted drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors for hepatocellular carcinoma, so as to enable more liver cancer patients to benefit from targeted immune therapy.
