A wide variety of malignant gastric diseases can be detected, staged, and followed on (18)F-FDG PET/CT. Although the PET/CT findings are often nonspecific and some can be seen in certain benign gastric diseases, the aim of this atlas was to demonstrate that the wide histological spectrum of gastric tumors that can be evaluated, staged, and followed with PET/CT is much broader than current medical literature would suggest. PET/CT readers and oncologists should be aware of the utility of PET/CT in these tumors and the imaging characteristics and patterns of (18)F-FDG uptake that can be demonstrated in these cases.

Conservative management of emphysematous esophagitis-a case report.
Mediastinum
July 2024
Department of Radiology, Inje University Sanggye Paik Hospital, Seoul, Korea.
Background: Emphysematous esophagitis is a very rare disease and there are only a few previous reports in the literature. Previously reported cases have resulted in emphysematous esophagitis following anterior cervical procedures or ingestion of hydrogen peroxide (HP). In this report, we describe a case in which a patient with emphysematous esophagitis accompanied by gastritis without the above predisposing factors was treated with conservative treatment.

Objective: To explore the efficacy of acupuncture based on "gut-brain axis" combined with sensory integration training in children with autism spectrum disorder (autism) and its effect on gastrointestinal symptoms.
Methods: A total of 96 children with autism were randomized into an observation group and a control group, 48 cases in each group, with 3 cases dropped out. Children in the control group received sensory integration training.
Analysis of Antroduodenal Motility in Patients With Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders/Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.
Aliment Pharmacol Ther
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, The Netherlands.
Hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD) and hypermobility Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) are frequently associated with gastrointestinal symptoms, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to compare antroduodenal motility in patients with and without HSD/hEDS. We included 239 patients (50 HSD/hEDS and 189 non-HSD/hEDS) with gastrointestinal symptoms undergoing antroduodenal manometry (ADM).

A20, an ubiquitin-editing enzyme, plays a pivotal role in regulating cell signaling and immune responses. Dysregulated A20 expression has been associated with various pathological conditions, including inflammatory diseases and malignancies, where its expression levels often correlate with differing prognoses in solid tumors. This study aimed to explore the expression and cellular localization of A20 in both nonpathological and diseased human gastric tissues to gain deeper insights into its involvement in gastric pathologies.

Invasive mucormycosis is an aggressive fungal infection characterized by rapid progression, primarily impacting immunocompromised individuals. Herein, we report a case of splenic infarction in association with gastrointestinal fistula and brain abscess as a rare presentation of mucormycosis biopsy, proven in a 56-year-old patient diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia. The patient initially sought medical attention with a 3-week history of fever, night sweats, and malaise.
