Recent advances in endoscopic therapeutics allow conditions such as fistulas of the digestive system to be treated endoscopically. These cases were recently managed with surgery. The Padlock® system includes a nitinol clip that was recently introduced for endoscopic therapy. There are few reports with regard to its use in the daily clinical practice. We report a case of a colonic fistula that was endoscopically managed with this novel over-the-scope nitinol clip system.

Four SNPs in the untranslated region of the NOTCH2 gene involved in reproductive traits in fertile and anestrum Holstein Friesian cattle.
BMC Vet Res

Department of Research, Research and Development Station for Bovine, Arad, Romania.
Background: There are no studies belong NOTCH2 gene polymorphism in relation to reproductive and productive traits in Holstein cattle. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of NOTCH2 gene polymorphisms on productive and reproductive performance of fertile and anestrum cattle.
Methods: The cattle were classified into anestrus for 3-12 months postpartum (n = 115, 37.
SOHO State of the Art Updates and Next Questions | Venetoclax + Obinutuzumab Therapy in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.

In the past decade, the treatment paradigm for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has markedly shifted from traditional chemoimmunotherapy towards targeted therapies. A fixed-duration, targeted regimen with venetoclax, a potent oral BCL-2 inhibitor, combined with obinutuzumab, a glycoengineered type II anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (Ven-Obi), has become the standard to beat for time-limited therapy in CLL. Ven-Obi allows for the rapid induction of remissions with high rates of undetectable minimal residual disease (uMRD) in patients across different treatment settings.

Gut microbial dysbiosis or altered gut microbial consortium, in schizophrenia suggests a pathogenic role through the gut-brain axis, influencing neuroinflammatory and neurotransmitter pathways critical to psychotic, affective, and cognitive symptoms. Paradoxically, conventional psychotropic interventions may exacerbate this dysbiosis, with antipsychotics, particularly olanzapine, demonstrating profound effects on microbial architecture through disruption of bacterial phyla ratios, diminished taxonomic diversity, and attenuated short-chain fatty acid synthesis. To address these challenges, novel therapeutic strategies targeting the gut microbiome, encompassing probiotic supplementation, prebiotic compounds, faecal microbiota transplantation, and rationalised co-pharmacotherapy, show promise in attenuating antipsychotic-induced metabolic disruptions while enhancing therapeutic efficacy.
