The effect of acidification of duodenal contents on splanchnic bloodflow and gastric circulation was investigated in anaesthetized dogs by measuring electromagnetically portal venous and left gastric artery bloodflow and gastric mucosa bloodflow with pertechnetate clearance. Duodenal acidification increased portal venous bloodflow and reduced mesenteric inflow resistance. At the same time bloodflow in the gastric artery and (not significantly) in the mucosa were reduced in consequence of increased inflow resistances.

Article Synopsis
- Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided coil deployment, or EUS-coiling, is a new technique for treating isolated gastric varices (iGV).
- In three cases using a special 0.035-inch hydrocoil, the procedure was successful, benefiting from features like an electrically detachable system, smooth deployment, and effective blood-flow blockage.
- All patients had their iGVs obliterated without any adverse events during or after the procedure, proving the hydrocoil to be a safe and effective treatment option.
Pharmacokinetics of Anthraquinones from Medicinal Plants.

Anthraquinones are bioactive natural products, some of which are active components in medicinal medicines, especially Chinese medicines. These compounds exert actions including purgation, anti-inflammation, immunoregulation, antihyperlipidemia, and anticancer effects. This study aimed to review the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of anthraquinones, which are importantly associated with their pharmacological and toxicological effects.

- The splenic artery and vein are crucial for the blood flow of the remnant stomach after a distal gastrectomy (DG), influencing the surgical approach during procedures involving the stomach and pancreas.
- A 70-year-old man with early gastric cancer underwent simultaneous distal gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction, distal pancreatectomy, and splenectomy, leading to the preservation of the remnant stomach's blood flow.
- Intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence was successfully used to evaluate blood flow, suggesting its effectiveness for similar future surgical contexts, though the patient experienced anastomosis edema post-surgery.

An 81-year-oldwoman with advancedgastric cancer was referredto our hospital. Preoperative contrast-enhancedCT revealeda roundcalcification of the splenic hilum with 15mm in diameter as a splenic artery aneurysm. She underwent transcatheter arterial embolization(TAE)for the splenic artery aneurysm.

It has been shown that metastases to the thyroid from extrathyroidal malignancies occur as solitary or multiple nodules, or may involve the whole thyroid gland diffusely. However, diffuse metastasis of gastric cancer to the thyroid is extremely rare. Here, we report a case of a 74-year-old woman with diffuse infiltration of gastric adenocarcinoma (signet-ring-cell carcinoma/poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma) cells in the thyroid.
