We report a 24-year-old woman with corrosive poisoning who was subjected to pertechnetate scintigraphy to evaluate gastric injury. Fusion imaging (SPECT-CT) provided valuable information regarding viability of gastric mucosa, and it helped guide appropriate management.

Beyond Metaplasia: Unraveling the Complex Pathogenesis of Autoimmune Atrophic Gastritis and Its Implications for Gastric Cancer Risk.
QJM

Peking University Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinical Medical School (Xiyuan), Peking University Health Science Center, Beijing, 100091, China.
Autoimmune gastritis (AIG) is a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by immune-mediated destruction of gastric parietal cells, leading to oxyntic atrophy, achlorhydria, and hypergastrinemia. While AIG was historically linked to gastric adenocarcinoma and type I neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), recent evidence suggests the risk of adenocarcinoma in AIG is lower than previously believed, particularly in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-negative patients.

Electronic address:
The ethanol-induced BALB/c mice and human gastric epithelial cell (Ges-1 cell) models were used to investigate the Sargassum siliquastrum fucoidan (SFuc) gastroprotective capability. The injury score and histopathological sections of the stomach were used to evaluate the gastroprotective capability. The western blotting and RT-PCR methods determined the signaling mechanism of mice's gastric injury.

Introduction: Chlorfenapyr, a broad-spectrum insecticide and acaricide of the pyrrole-class pesticides, can induce dizziness, fatigue, profuse sweating, and altered consciousness by interfering with cell energy metabolism. However, chlorfenapyr-related rhabdomyolysis has rarely been reported.
Case Presentations: Patient 1 was a healthy 26-year-old man who ingested approximately 30 mL of chlorfenapyr.
Cystoscope-free ureteral stent removal: a safe and effective method during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Department of Urology, People's Hospital of Tibet Autonomous Region Lhasa 850000, Tibet Autonomous Region, PR China.
Ureteral stent must be removed within a certain period, usually performed under the cystoscope. However, cystoscopic operations procedures carry risks such as urethral injury, hemorrhage, and infection. This study aimed to implement a cystoscope-free method for ureteral stent removal during the COVID-19 pandemic to mitigate the complications associated with cystoscopy, reduce the risk of cross-infection, and conserve medical resources and time.
