Published: November 2023

Background: Several studies have suggested that the mucosal protective effects of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) do not extend beyond the duodenum; however, PPIs may cause lower gastrointestinal (LGI) injury, although these relationships have not yet been fully elucidated.

Methods: We searched all the relevant studies published until September 2022 that examined the risk of PPIs for LGI bleeding. We performed a meta-analysis of the risk of LGI bleeding (small bowel (SB) or colorectal bleeding) between PPI users and non-users. A subgroup analysis of patients consuming aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) was also performed.

Results: Twelve studies with 341,063 participants were included in this meta-analysis. The use of PPIs was associated with the risk of LGI bleeding (odds ratio [OR] [95% confidence interval [CI]] = 1.42 [1.16-1.73]; hazard ratio [HR] [95% CI] = 3.23 [1.56-6.71]). An association between PPI use and the risk of LGI bleeding was also identified in the subgroup of aspirin or NSAID users (OR [95% CI] = 1.64 [1.49-1.80]; HR [95% CI] = 6.55 [2.01-21.33]). In the bleeding site-specific analyses, the risk of SB bleeding was associated with PPI use (OR [95% CI] = 1.54 [1.30-1.84]).

Conclusions: PPI use was associated with an increased risk of LGI bleeding, particularly SB bleeding. This association was particularly pronounced among aspirin and NSAID users. Inappropriate PPI prescriptions should be avoided in patients with LGI bleeding and a low risk of upper gastrointestinal disease.

Machine learning and its specialized forms, such as Artificial Neural Networks and Convolutional Neural Networks, are increasingly being used for detecting and managing gastrointestinal conditions. Recent advancements involve using Artificial Neural Network models to enhance predictive accuracy for severe lower gastrointestinal (LGI) bleeding outcomes, including the need for surgery. To this end, artificial intelligence (AI)-guided predictive models have shown promise in improving management outcomes.

Article Synopsis
  • In patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), careful use of antiplatelet medications is vital to prevent blood clots but poses a risk for severe bleeding complications, especially gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB).
  • This study analyzed data from the JCD-KiCS-PCI registry, focusing on 8,864 CAD patients, categorizing them based on the occurrence of GIB within two years post-PCI.
  • Results indicated that the rates of dual and triple antiplatelet therapy varied significantly among patients with GIB compared to those without, highlighting the importance of monitoring bleeding risks associated with long-term antiplatelet use.

Seizure-Related Falls and Near Falls in LGI1-IgG Autoimmune Encephalitis.

Neurol Clin Pract

June 2024

Department of Neurology (XL, PG, KMS, MR, AZ, EPF, A. McKeon, SJP, JWB, DD); Department of Radiology (A. Madhavan); and Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (AZ, EPF, A. McKeon, SJP, DD), Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.

Objectives: To study the frequency, causes, and consequences of seizure-related falls and near falls in LGI1-IgG autoimmune encephalitis.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 136 patients seen at Mayo Clinic with (1) LGI1-IgG seropositivity, (2) clinical phenotypes compatible with LGI1-IgG autoimmune encephalitis, and (3) falls or near falls related to seizures. The clinical documentation, MRI, and EEG data were collected and reviewed.

Background And Purpose: Multiple inflammatory biomarkers have been shown to predict symptomatic cerebral vasospasm (SCVS) and poor functional outcome in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. However, the impact of the low-grade inflammation (LGI) score, which can reflect the synergistic effects of five individual inflammatory biomarkers on SCVS and poor functional outcome on aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), has not yet been well established. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of the LGI score on SCVS and poor functional outcome in aSAH patients.
