Real-life chromoendoscopy for neoplasia detection and characterisation in long-standing IBD

The study looked at the effectiveness of chromoendoscopy for neoplasia detection and characterization. Dysplasia detection rate between expert and non-expert endoscopists and learning curve were ascertained. In vitro, CE optical diagnosis is highly accurate for ruling out dysplasia, especially in expert hands.

Analgesic Effects of Oxycodone Relative to Those of Sufentanil, in the Presence of Midazolam, During Endoscopic Injection Sclerotherapy for Patients With Cirrhosis and Esophageal Varices

The oxycodone in combination with midazolam may provide an anesthetic technique that results in fewer episodes of hypoxia and other adverse conditions during endoscopic injection sclerotherapy. Patients with cirrhosis and esophageal varices had 32% fewer episodes of hypoxia. The study was a prospective, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial.

Randomised controlled trial of mesalazine in IBS

Low-grade intestinal inflammation plays a role in the pathophysiology of IBS. We conducted a phase 3, multicentre, tertiary setting, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Patients were randomly assigned to either mesalazine, 800 mg, or placebo, three times daily for 12 weeks.

Efficacy and safety of Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy immediately after endoscopic submucosal dissection

Clinical Parameters Correlate With Endoscopic Activity of Ulcerative Colitis: A Systematic Review

The study finds a correlation between clinical activity, a combination of rectal bleeding and stool frequency, and endoscopic activity in patients with UC. Symptoms correlated more strongly with endoscopic. activity in those with left-sided colitis than extensive colitis.

Liver disease and outcomes among COCOVID-19 hospitalized patients - A systematic review and meta-analysis

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has been a challenge globally. it is assumed that COVID-19 is associated with acute liver injury.
