RAPID Access Real-Time (RT) has the ability to provide an endoscopist with the presence of bleeding and its location for cases with on-going mid GI bleeding. However, to date, the clinical benefits of this device remain unknown as studies on it have not yet been published. We present a case of recurrent GI bleeding where video capsule endoscopy (VCE) with real time viewing helped them decide on the route of double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE). Since the bleeding image of RT had not been obtained over 150 minutes after passing the pylorus, the patient underwent retrograde DBE. In the middle of the ileum, active bleeding from Dieulafoy's lesion was found and we treated it successfully. It was suggested the effectiveness of VCE in reference to the determination of RT for on-going mid GI bleeding.

To understand biodiversity change and support conservation decision-making, estimates of species' long-term population trends at regional and national scales are essential. However, such estimates are missing for many freshwater taxa, despite the diverse range of threats that they face. For this study, we mobilised monitoring data on riverine freshwater fish abundance collected across different regions of Germany.

Self-insight has been associated with psychological resilience; however, less is understood about the role coping-specific self-insights play in strengthening resilience. This study used a convergent mixed-methods approach to investigate the coping self-insights triggered by self-reflection on coping experiences and their effects on perceived resilience. Australian ministry workers ( = 79) provided up to five qualitative self-reflective workbook entries, and quantitative online self-report survey responses before and six months after training.

Context: The illicit drug landscape in the United States is dynamic, featuring a risky and erratic drug supply. Drug checking programs (DCP) have been successfully implemented and studied extensively in Canada and Europe but are scarce in the United States. Integrating DCP at harm reduction programs provides an opportunity to engage people at the point-of-care and deliver a combination of harm reduction services, access to healthcare services, and linkages to treatment.
