We evaluated the effects of fortification and composition on gastric emptying and curding in un/fortified pairs of mother's own milk (MOM, n = 17) and pasteurized donor human milk (PDHM, n = 15) in preterm infants. Retained meal proportions (%) and curding were determined from sonography. Immediate and subsequent postprandial % were higher for PDHM (23%, P = 0.026; 15%, P = 0.006) and fortified meals (31.5%; 8.8%, both P < 0.001), whereas higher casein, whey, and lactose concentrations were associated with lower immediate postprandial % (all P < 0.006). Curding did not affect emptying. Influences of fortification, pasteurization, and differing breast milk compositions are small and unlikely implicated in preterm feeding intolerance.

The last two decades have provided far more options f both patients and their physicians in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. While dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have been approved for nearly two decades, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) are relatively new. Of interest to perioperative physicians, these drugs present specific perioperative concerns, prompting many societies to issue guidelines.

: Despite standard preoperative fasting guidelines, residual gastric content can persist in some patients, increasing the risk of aspiration pneumonitis. Multiple patient-specific factors may predict gastric content retention, but their predictive accuracy is limited. We hypothesized that ultrasound would more reliably identify residual gastric content compared to a comprehensive questionnaire and aimed to determine the most practical approach for risk assessment in elective surgical patients.

: Acute gastric injury is a prevalent gastrointestinal disorder characterized by inflammation and damage to the stomach lining. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential effects of broccoli stem extract (BSE) against acute gastritis in a rat model. : The antioxidant properties of BSE were evaluated through DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity assays and total polyphenol content analysis.

(1) Background: The modified Whipple procedure, or pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, is a complex surgical intervention used to treat pancreatic head tumors. While preserving digestive function, it is associated with significant perioperative risks. This study explores the clinical, immunological, and microbiome-related factors influencing postoperative complications, focusing on the interplay between patient comorbidities, systemic inflammation, and gut dysbiosis.

Introduction: Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is a complex surgery with high morbidity and mortality, often associated with complications like post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) and postoperative pancreatic fistulas (POPF). The corticosteroids administered intraoperatively has been shown to improve postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing surgery. However, their impact on complications following PD remains controversial.
