I see a bunch of my classmates cramming for the last minute, and here I am, in a corner, reminding myself that it's just three more hours till I get away from this horror.

Background And Aims: The relationship between irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and structural changes in various regional cortical areas remains unclear. Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to explore the potential association between IBS and Structural Brain Changes.
Methods: Genetically independent loci associated with IBS in individuals of European ancestry were selected as instrumental variants (IVs) in the large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common mental health disorder that can occur following exposure to a traumatic event, and is characterized by symptoms including intrusive memories, dissociation, and nightmares. PTSD poses significant suffering on the individual and can reduce quality of life substantially, however, its mechanisms are not fully understood. It has also been associated with gut abnormalities, such as with irritable bowel syndrome, indicating possible involvement of the gut microbiome and gut-brain axis.

Introduction: Observational studies have shown that gallstone disease (GSD), cholecystitis, cholangitis, polyp of gallbladder, viral hepatitis, pancreatitis and gastrointestinal (GI) traits such as H. pylori infection, inflammatory bowel disease, and digestive ulcer are associated with the risk of biliary tract cancer (BTC). However, no study has explored their causal associations.

Purpose: Almost a third of patients with inactive inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) suffer from symptoms compatible with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-like symptoms). The relation between these symptoms and diet in patients with IBD is not fully established. We aimed to assess associations between IBS-like symptoms and intake of macronutrients and fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAPs) in patients with inactive IBD compared to an IBD-free background population.
