Article Synopsis
- This study focused on how Italian gastroenterologists manage patients with hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes and how the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic impacted their practices.
- Among the 121 clinicians surveyed, many gathered family histories for genetic risk assessment, but only a small percentage utilized online predictive tools or offered specialized endoscopy and surgeries.
- The pandemic led to reduced clinician workloads and delays in surveillance for nearly half of the respondents, highlighting the urgent need to resume endoscopic surveillance to prevent serious health consequences.

Gastroenterological Hospital S. De Bellis, IRCCS, Castellana Grotte (BA), Italy.
No consensus exists as to whether cotherapy is effective in the short-term prevention of severe NSAID-related gastroduodenal damage. The aim of this study was to provide a quantitative systematic review of the efficacy of gastroprotective drugs, such as misoprostol, H2-blockers, and proton pump inhibitors (PPI) in preventing the severe acute NSAID-related gastroduodenal damage. Placebo-controlled randomized clinical trials on the use of misoprostol, H2-blockers, and PPIs as preventative agents published between January 1986 and May 1999 were identified through Medline and reference lists from clinical reviews.
