The risk/benefit ratio weighs up on the one hand the expected advantages and on the other the potential risks of a procedure. It is taken into consideration with every therapeutic decision, whether it concerns medication-based treatments, psychotherapy or any other type of treatment. The ethical dimension is a critical element which must be taken into account during team deliberations, whenever these are possible.

Acta Cir Bras
January 2025
Instituto de Ensino, Pesquisa e Inovação - Liga Contra o Câncer - Natal (RN) - Brazil.
Purpose: To determine if endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) should be performed with surgery or as a different step, on acute cholecystitis, and which strategy has the least complications and morbimortality.
Methods: Various databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CINAHL, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature, clinical trials, Google Scholar) were searched for randomized trials comparing the different timings for ERCP and cholecystectomy. No language or time restrictions were applied.
Innovative nomogram approach to enhance the prediction of Helicobacter pylori infection in children via magnetic-controlled capsule endoscopy.

Unlabelled: Early detection and intervention are crucial in managing Helicobacter pylori (HP) infections, which are associated with various gastrointestinal diseases in children. The traditional Kyoto gastritis scoring system, though effective, requires adaptation for non-invasive techniques like magnetic-controlled capsule endoscopy to enhance early diagnosis and improve patient comfort. This retrospective study involved 474 pediatric patients who underwent magnetic-controlled capsule endoscopy coupled with a C urea breath test at the Children's Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January to December 2023.

Objectives: This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of homelessness shortly before or during pregnancy and describe differences in maternal characteristics and adverse birth outcomes between people reporting homelessness and not reporting homelessness.
Methods: We used 2016-2020 Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) data from 31 sites to estimate the prevalence of self-reported homelessness during the 12 months before giving birth. We used logistic regression models to evaluate the association between homelessness and adverse birth outcomes, specifically small for gestational age (SGA), low birth weight (LBW), and preterm birth (PTB).
