The year 2024 was rich in developments in the field of hepatology, gastroenterology, and interventional endoscopy. New molecules have been developed for the treatment of metabolic steatohepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, and inflammatory bowel diseases. Technological progress now makes it possible to perform screening measurements for portal hypertension directly under echo-endoscopic guidance and to extend the use of intraluminal stents to surgically modified anatomies.

In this article, we look at a selection of recent developments in various areas of endocrinology. We focus on advances in endocrine pharmacotherapy and endocrine surgery, addressing several areas: a) the thyroid safety of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP1) analogues; b) the efficacy of adrenal surgery for mild autonomous cortisol secretion; c) crinecerfont in the management of congenital adrenal hyperplasia in adults and children; d) paltusotin as a novel oral therapy for acromegaly and e) TransCon PTH (palopegteriparatide) as a novel therapy for chronic hypoparathyroidism.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common and its treatment is complex. The new European guidelines emphasize a patient-centered approach, considering the risk factors that contribute to AF and their management in primary and secondary prevention. Recent advances in electrophysiology include the development of new ablation techniques and the implantation of a leadless bicameral pacemaker.

Objective: The utility of lateral neck X-rays is unclear in pediatric otolaryngology. Past research showed that lateral neck X-ray did not change treatment decisions for children with suspected foreign body aspiration. This study examines the utility of lateral neck X-ray for patients also receiving otolaryngology consults for any indication.

Aims: Atrial fibrillation (AF) leads to impaired exercise capacity, and catheter ablation (CA) for AF improves exercise capacity. However, the precise changes in daily activities after CA for AF remain unclear. The authors aimed to evaluate the changes in daily activities following CA for AF using a wristwatch-type pulse wave monitor (PWM), which tracks steps and exercise time, estimates burnt daily calories, and records sleep duration, in addition to establishing the rhythm diagnosis of AF or non-AF.
