The paper describes a case of multiple cerebral arterial aneurysms in a patient with prior subarachnoidal hemorrhage, who developed postoperative acute upper gastrointestinal tract (GIT) lesion manifesting itself as bleeding and requiring multiple endoscopic treatment procedures and eventually a direct surgical intervention. The susceptibility of patients with cerebral pathology to upper GIT lesions and methods of their therapy and prevention are discussed.

Iodine staining with distance countdown improving the safety for reduction of adverse events: a randomized controlled trial.

Clin Transl Gastroenterol

January 2025

Department of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, Sichuan, China.

Background: Lugol's chromoendoscopy (LCE) is valuable, cost-effective, and widely used in early esophageal cancer (EEC) screening, yet it suffers from low compliance due to adverse events after LCE. In addition, the reflux of iodine during iodine staining in the upper esophagus brings the risk of bucking and aspiration. We introduced a new model called distance countdown (DC) aimed to reduce reflux during iodine staining in upper esophageal LCE.

Autoimmune polyglandular syndromes (APS) are characterized by associations of two or more autoimmune diseases (AID). APS type 3 is characterized by the presence of autoimmune thyroid disease associated with other AID, excluding adrenal gland involvement. Here we report a case of a 64-year-old male, with history of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), diagnosed at the age of 32, who was referred to a Diabetes consultation in 2014 due to poor metabolic control.

Sleeve gastrectomy reveals the plasticity of the human gastric epithelium.

Nat Commun

January 2025

Department of Developmental Biology and Cancer Research, The Institute for Medical Research Israel Canada, The Faculty of Medicine, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel.

Gastrin is secreted following a rise in gastric pH, leading to gastric acid secretion. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG), a bariatric surgery where 80% of the gastric corpus is excised, presents a challenge for gastric pH homeostasis. Using histology, and single-cell RNA sequencing of the gastric epithelium in 12 women, we observed that SG is associated with an increase in a sub-population of acid-secreting parietal cells that overexpress respiratory enzymes and an increase in histamine-secreting enterochromaffin-like cells (ECLs).

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a common allergic inflammatory disease that affects the upper respiratory tract. Although previous research suggests a potential association between gut microbiota alterations and AR, the causal relationship remains unclear. This study employs Mendelian randomization (MR) to reduce confounding factors and reverse causality.
