Wandering spleen: Diagnosis and treatment.

Whether congenital or acquired, wandering spleen is a rare entity. In most cases, surgical treatment necessitates splenectomy, or even more rarely, particularly in children, splenopexy.

The environmental impact of small-bowel capsule endoscopy.

Introduction:  The environmental impact of endoscopy, including small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE), is a topic of growing attention and concern. This study aimed to evaluate the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (kgCO) generated by an SBCE procedure.

Methods:  Life cycle assessment methodology (ISO 14040) was used to evaluate three brands of SBCE device and included emissions generated by patient travel, bowel preparation, capsule examination, and video recording.

Therapeutic indications and metabolic effects of metreleptin in patients with lipodystrophy syndromes: Real-life experience from a national reference network.

Aim: To describe baseline characteristics and follow-up data in patients with lipodystrophy syndromes treated with metreleptin in a national reference network, in a real-life setting.

Patients And Methods: Clinical and metabolic data from patients receiving metreleptin in France were retrospectively collected, at baseline, at 1 year and at the latest follow-up during treatment.

Results: Forty-seven patients with lipodystrophy including generalized lipodystrophy (GLD; n = 28) and partial lipodystrophy (PLD; n = 19) received metreleptin over the last decade.

Once versus twice daily injection of enoxaparin for thromboprophylaxis in bariatric surgery: effects on antifactor Xa activity and procoagulant microparticles. A randomized controlled study.

Background: The optimal scheme of thromboprophylaxis in bariatric surgery remains uncertain, because clinical practice is different between countries and randomized trials are lacking.

Objectives: The primary objective of this randomized multicenter study was to determine the optimal regimen of enoxaparin providing an antifactor Xa peak activity between .3 and .
