RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Peptic ulcer is the most common source of non-variceal bleeding. However, it remains controversial whether the outcomes of cirrhotic patients with peptic ulcer bleeding differ from those with variceal bleeding. METHODS: Cirrhotic patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding (AGIB) who underwent endoscopy and had an identifiable source of bleeding were retrospectively screened from an international multicenter cohort. Logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the impact of peptic ulcer bleeding on in-hospital death and 5-day failure to control bleeding. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed by matching age, gender, Child-Pugh score, and model for end-stage liver disease score between the peptic ulcer bleeding and variceal bleeding groups. RESULTS: Overall, 1535 patients were included, of whom 73 (4.7%) had peptic ulcer bleeding. Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that peptic ulcer bleeding was not independently associated with in-hospital death (OR = 2.169, p = 0.126) or 5-day failure to control bleeding (OR = 1.230, p = 0.680). PSM analyses demonstrated that both in-hospital mortality (9.7% vs. 6.3%, p = 0.376) and rate of 5-day failure to control bleeding (6.9% vs. 5.4%, p = 0.787) were not significantly different between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: The impact of peptic ulcer bleeding on the in-hospital outcomes of cirrhotic patients is similar to that of variceal bleeding.
In this international multicenter study, we included 1535 patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding (AGIB) and divided them into peptic ulcer bleeding and variceal bleeding groups. We found that only a minority of AGIB episodes in cirrhotic patients was attributed to peptic ulcer. Additionally, after adjusting for the severity of liver dysfunction, the in-hospital mortality and the rate of 5-day failure to control bleeding should be similar between cirrhotic patients with peptic ulcer bleeding and those with variceal bleeding.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection may be associated with colorectal polyps/adenomas, but the current evidence remains controversial. METHODS: We retrospectively screened the medical records of 655 participants who underwent both colonoscopy and H. pylori test from June 15, 2020 to April 30, 2023. The number, size, location, and pathological type of colorectal polyps/adenomas were compared between H. pylori positive and negative groups. Adjusting for age, gender, smoking, drinking, hypertension, diabetes, fatty liver, body mass index, and inflammatory and metabolic indicators, multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association of H. pylori infection with the number, size, location, and pathological type of colorectal polyps/adenomas, where no polyp/adenoma was used as reference. RESULTS: Overall, 508 participants were included, of whom 154 and 354 were divided into H. pylori positive and negative groups, respectively. H. pylori positive group had significantly higher colorectal polyps/adenomas (74.7â¯% vs. 65.8â¯%, P=0.048), low-grade adenomas (55.7â¯% vs. 47.6â¯%, P=0.026), advanced adenomas (22.6â¯% vs. 13.3â¯%, P=0.008), and colorectal polyps/adenomas with sizes of ≥6â¯mm (61.7â¯% vs. 48.5â¯%, P=0.002) and ≥10â¯mm (25.2â¯% vs. 14.6â¯%, P=0.004) than H. pylori negative group. In multivariate logistic regression analyses, H. pylori infection was independently associated with low-grade adenomas (OR=2.677, 95â¯%CI=1.283-5.587, P=0.009), advanced adenomas (OR=3.017, 95â¯%CI=1.007-9.036, P=0.049), right-side colon polyps/adenomas (OR=5.553, 95â¯%CI=1.679-18.360, P=0.005), and colorectal polyps/adenomas with sizes of ≥10â¯mm (OR=4.436, 95â¯%CI=1.478-13.310, P=0.008), but not number of colorectal polyps/adenomas. CONCLUSION: H. pylori infection is associated with increased risk of colorectal polyps/adenomas, especially low-grade adenomas, advanced adenomas, right-side colon polyps/adenomas, and large colorectal polyps/adenomas.
RESUMO
Background: Morphologic changes in the gallbladder and gallstones are common in cirrhotic patients, but their associations with outcomes of cirrhotic patients are unclear. Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 206 cirrhotic patients and measured their gallbladder length and width, gallbladder wall thickness, presence of gallstones, and gallstones' length and width in axial contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) images. X-tile software was utilized to calculate the optimal cutoff values of these parameters for evaluating survival and hepatic decompensation events in the cirrhosis group. Their associations with survival were explored by Cox regression analyses and Kaplan-Meier curve analyses. Their associations with hepatic decompensation events were evaluated by competing risk analyses and Nelson-Aalen cumulative risk curve analyses where death was a competing event. Results: Cirrhotic patients with gallbladder length < 72 mm had a significantly higher cumulative survival rate than those with a length of ≥ 72 mm (P = 0.049 by log-rank test), but gallbladder width, gallbladder wall thickness, presence of gallstones, and gallstones' length and width were not significantly associated with survival (P = 0.10, P = 0.14, P = 0.97, P = 0.73, and P = 0.73 by log-rank tests, respectively). Cirrhotic patients with gallbladder wall thickness < 3.4 mm had a significantly lower cumulative rate of hepatic decompensation events than those with a wall thickness of ≥ 3.4 mm (P = 0.02 by Gray's test), but gallbladder length and width, presence of gallstones, and gallstones' length and width were not significantly associated with hepatic decompensation events (P = 0.15, P = 0.15, P = 0.54, P = 0.76, and P = 0.54 by Gray's tests, respectively). Conclusion: Changes in gallbladder length and gallbladder wall thickness, rather than gallstone parameters, may be in parallel with the long-term outcomes of cirrhotic patients.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND Simethicone can improve bowel preparation quality, but the optimal timing of oral simethicone before colonoscopy has not been determined. This study aimed to explore the effect of the time interval between oral simethicone and the start of colonoscopy (S-C) on bowel preparation quality. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 364 patients undergoing colonoscopy at our department from August 1, 2021 to November 30, 2021 were included in the training cohort, and 420 consecutive patients from December 15, 2021 to January 31, 2022 comprised the validation cohort. They were classified into short and long S-C groups according to the median S-C. Bowel preparation quality evaluated by the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale was compared between the 2 groups. Logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the correlation between S-C and bowel preparation quality, and we explored the effect of run-way time and time of starting colonoscopy on bowel preparation quality. RESULTS In the training cohort, 182 and 182 patients were classified into the short and long S-C groups, respectively; in the validation cohort, 210 and 210 patients were classified into the 2 groups, respectively. In the 2 cohorts, the short S-C group had a significantly higher rate of adequate/excellent bowel preparation than the long S-C group. Logistic regression analyses showed that shorter S-C, shorter run-way time, and colonoscopy in the morning were all correlated with adequate/excellent bowel preparation. CONCLUSIONS Bowel preparation quality may be affected by S-C, run-way time, and time of starting colonoscopy. S-C shortening should be given equal importance as run-way time shortening.

INTRODUCTION: Gastrointestinal symptoms as well as depression and anxiety can negatively affect the effectiveness of military training and combat in general. This cross-sectional study aimed to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinal symptoms in recruits and further validate their associations with depression and anxiety. METHODS: A self-report questionnaire was sent to the recruits in an army in April 2022, which primarily included the Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) for the assessment of gastrointestinal symptoms, the Bristol Stool Scale (BSS) for stool consistency and shape, the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) for depression, and the 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale (GAD-7) for anxiety. Correlation of gastrointestinal symptoms with depression and anxiety was evaluated. RESULTS: Overall, 467 recruits were included. Their median age was 21.0 years old (range: 18.0-24.0), and 98.1% of them were male. The proportion of gastrointestinal symptoms, abnormal stools, depression, and anxiety was 69.2% (n = 323), 11.3% (n = 53), 17.6% (n = 82), and 12.2% (n = 57), respectively. The recruits with gastrointestinal symptoms evaluated by GSRS had significantly higher prevalence of depression (P < 0.001) and anxiety (P < 0.001) than those without. GSRS score positively correlated with PHQ-9 (rs = 0.440, P < 0.001) and GAD-7 score (rs = 0.386, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Gastrointestinal symptoms are very common in recruits, and positively correlate with depression and anxiety.

Background: Immunoglobulin G4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) is frequently accompanied with type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). Isolated IgG4-SC which is not accompanied with AIP is uncommon in clinical practice, and its manifestations are similar to those of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Case presentation: A 55-year-old male presented with persistent aggravation of icteric sclera and skin. He was initially diagnosed with hilar cholangiocarcinoma and underwent surgery. However, positive IgG4 plasma cells were found in the surgical specimens. Thus, a pathological diagnosis of IgG4-SC was established. After that, steroid therapy was given and initially effective. But he was steroid dependent, and then received rituximab therapy twice. Unfortunately, the response to rituximab therapy was poor. Conclusion: It is crucial to differentiate isolated IgG4-SC from hilar cholangiocarcinoma to avoid unnecessary surgery. Future studies should further explore effective treatment strategy in patients who do not respond to steroids therapy. It is also required to develop novel and accurate diagnostic approaches to avoid unnecessary surgical procedures.
RESUMO
Isolated splenic vein thrombosis (ISVT) is a very rare venous thromboembolism in the absence of pancreatic diseases, which can cause acute abdominal pain and chronic left-side portal hypertension. Herein, we reported a 40-year-old female patient who developed ISVT after taking oral contraceptives. Anticoagulation with oral rivaroxaban was the first-line choice of therapy in this case. Since then, abdominal pain alleviated, but she did not achieve vessel recanalization. Thus, a 7-day systemic thrombolysis with urokinase was given. Abdominal pain disappeared, but ISVT was not significantly improved. During follow-up period, long-term anticoagulation with oral rivaroxaban was given. Collectively, this case indicates the possibility of oral contraceptives as a risk factor of ISVT as well as anticoagulation combined with systemic thrombolysis as a choice of treatment for ISVT. Certainly, long-term follow-up is necessary in this case.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Nonselective ß blockers (NSBBs) facilitate the development of portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in liver cirrhosis. Considering the potential effect of NSBBs on neutrophils and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), we speculated that NSBBs might promote the development of PVT by stimulating neutrophils to release NETs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Serum NETs biomarkers were measured, use of NSBBs was recorded, and PVT was evaluated in cirrhotic patients. Carbon tetrachloride and ferric chloride (FeCl3) were used to induce liver fibrosis and PVT in mice, respectively. After treatment with propranolol and DNase I, neutrophils in peripheral blood, colocalization and expression of NETs in PVT specimens, and NETs biomarkers in serum were measured. Ex vivo clots lysis analysis was performed and portal vein velocity and coagulation parameters were tested. RESULTS: Serum MPO-DNA level was significantly higher in cirrhotic patients treated with NSBBs, and serum H3Cit and MPO-DNA levels were significantly higher in those with PVT. In fibrotic mice, following treatment with propranolol, DNase I significantly shortened the time of FeCl3-induced PVT formation, lowered the peripheral blood neutrophils labelled by CD11b/Ly6G, inhibited the positive staining of H3Cit and the expression of H3Cit and MPO proteins in PVT tissues, and reduced serum nucleosome level. Furthermore, the addition of DNase I to tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) significantly accelerated clots lysis as compared with tPA alone. Propranolol reduced portal vein velocity in fibrotic mice, but did not influence coagulation parameters. CONCLUSION: Our study provides a clue to the potential impact of NETs formation on the association of NSBBs with the development of PVT.

Acute portal vein thrombosis (PVST), a serious complication of liver cirrhosis, is characterized as abdominal pain secondary to intestinal ischemia, and even intestinal necrosis. Anticoagulation is recommended for the treatment of acute PVST, but is often postponed in cirrhotic patients with acute variceal bleeding or those at a high risk of variceal bleeding. Herein, we reported a 63-year-old male with a 14-year history of alcoholic liver cirrhosis who developed progressive abdominal pain related to acute portal vein and superior mesenteric vein thrombosis immediately after endoscopic variceal ligation combined with endoscopic cyanoacrylate glue injection for acute variceal bleeding. Fortunately, acute PVST was successfully recanalized by the use of low molecular weight heparin. Collectively, this case suggests that acute symptomatic PVST can be secondary to endoscopic variceal therapy in liver cirrhosis, and can be safely and successfully treated by anticoagulation.
RESUMO
Acute extensive portal venous system thrombosis (PVST) can cause lethal complications. Herein, we have for the first time reported the use of anticoagulation combined with systemic thrombolysis by tenecteplase in a male patient with a diagnosis of acute extensive PVST but without liver cirrhosis. After thrombolytic therapy, abdominal pain obviously alleviated. However, urinary bleeding developed, which was reversible by stopping thrombolytic drugs. Finally, this case developed cavernous transformation of the portal vein without portal venous recanalization. In future, the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase should be explored in acute extensive PVST cases.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND Body mass index (BMI) and endoscopists' experiences can be associated with cecal intubation time (CIT), but such associations are controversial. This study aimed to clarify the association between BMI and CIT during unsedated colonoscopy at 3 learning stages of a single endoscopist. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 1500 consecutive patients undergoing unsedated colonoscopy by 1 endoscopist at our department from December 11, 2020, to August 21, 2022, were reviewed. They were divided into 3 learning stages according to the number of colonoscopies performed by 1 endoscopist, including intermediate (501-1000 colonoscopies), experienced (1001-1500 colonoscopies), and senior stages (1501-2000 colonoscopies). Variables that significantly correlated with CIT were identified by Spearman rank correlation analyses and then included in multiple linear regression analysis. RESULTS Overall, 1233 patients were included. Among them, 392, 420, and 421 patients were divided into intermediate, experienced, and senior stages, respectively. Median CIT was 7.83, 6.38, and 5.58 min at intermediate, experienced, and senior stages, respectively (P.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is potentially lethal. Considering the role of inflammation in the progression of acute pancreatitis (AP), this study aims to develop a model based on inflammatory indexes for identifying the presence of SAP. METHODS: Overall, 253 patients with AP who were consecutively admitted between July 2018 and November 2020 were screened, of whom 60 had SAP. Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), neutrophil-to-platelet ratio (NPR), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), platelet-to-albumin ratio (PAR), C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR), C-reactive protein-to-lymphocyte ratio (CLR), and triglyceride glucose (TyG) index were calculated. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors of SAP. Then, inflammation-based models were established. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analyses were performed. Area under ROC curve (AUROC) was calculated. RESULTS: Diabetes mellitus, fatty liver, high white blood cell count (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), red blood cell distribution width (RDW), procalcitonin (PCT), SII, NLR, NPR, CAR, CLR, and TyG index, and a low LMR were significantly associated with SAP. Considering the collinearity among these variables, 10 multivariate logistic regression analyses were separately performed. Finally, four independent inflammation-based models were established. Of them, the best one, which was calculated as follows: 1.204*fatty liver (yes = 1; no = 0) + 0.419*PCT + 0.005*CLR - 2.629, had an AUROC of 0.795 with a specificity of 73.4% and a sensitivity of 71.7%. CONCLUSION: The inflammation-based model consisting of fatty liver, PCT, and CLR has a good diagnostic performance for SAP.

Background: Adequate bowel preparation quality is essential for high-quality colonoscopy according to the current guidelines. However, the excellent effect of bowel preparation on adenoma/polyp detection rate (ADR/PDR) remained controversial. Methods: During the period from December 2020 to August 2022, a total of 1566 consecutive patients underwent colonoscopy by an endoscopist. Their medical records were reviewed. According to the Boston bowel preparation scale, patients were divided into excellent, good, and poor bowel preparation quality groups. ADR/PDR, diminutive ADR/PDR, small ADR/PDR, intermediate ADR/PDR, large ADR/PDR, and number of adenomas/polyps were compared among them. Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the factors that were significantly associated with ADR/PDR. Results: Overall, 1232 patients were included, of whom 463, 636, and 133 were assigned to the excellent, good, and poor groups, respectively. The good group had a significantly higher ADR/PDR (63% vs 55%, P = .015) and a larger number of adenomas/polyps (2.5 ± 3.2 vs 2.0 ± 2.8, P = .030) than the poor group. Both ADR/PDR (63% vs 55%, P = .097) and number of adenomas/polyps (2.2 ± 2.8 vs 2.0 ± 2.8, P = .219) were not significantly different between excellent and poor groups. The excellent (9% vs 4%, P = .045) and good (9% vs 4%, P = .040) groups had a significantly higher intermediate ADR/PDR than the poor group. Logistic regression analyses showed that either good (odds ratio [OR] = 1.786, 95% CI = 1.046-3.047, P = .034) or excellent (OR = 2.179, 95% CI = 1.241-3.826, P = .007) bowel preparation quality was independently associated with a higher ADR/PDR compared with poor bowel preparation quality. Excellent (OR = 1.202, 95% CI = 0.848-1.704, P = .302) bowel preparation quality was not independently associated with a higher ADR/PDR compared with good bowel preparation quality. Conclusions: The pursuit of excellence in bowel preparation does not show an association with increased ADR/PDR and number of adenomas/polyps compared with a good level. In addition, our study further contributes to the existing evidence that poor bowel preparation compromises ADR/PDR and number of adenomas/polyps.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Cardiac morphology and function, which are conventionally evaluated by echocardiography, are often abnormal in decompensated cirrhosis. We aimed to evaluate the association of echocardiography-related parameters with prognosis in cirrhosis. METHODS: This retrospective study included 104 decompensated cirrhotic patients, in whom cardiac structure and function were measured by echocardiography, including mitral inflow early diastolic velocity/mitral inflow late diastolic velocity (E/A), left atrium diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic dimension, interventricular septal thickness, left ventricular posterior wall thickness, right atrial transverse diameter, right atrial longitudinal diameter, right ventricular dimension (RVD), stroke volume, cardiac output, left ventricular ejection fraction, and fractional shortening. Cox regression and competing risk analyses and Kaplan-Meier and Nelson-Aalen cumulative risk curves were used to evaluate their associations with further decompensation and death in cirrhotic patients, if appropriate. RESULTS: Lower RVD was a predictor of further decompensation in Cox regression (adjusted by Child-Pugh score: p = 0.138; adjusted by MELD score: p = 0.034) and competing risk analyses (p = 0.003), and RVD ≤17 mm was significantly associated with higher cumulative incidence of further decompensation in Kaplan-Meier (p = 0.002) and Nelson-Aalen cumulative risk curves (p = 0.002). E/A ≤ 0.8 was a significant predictor of death in Cox regression (adjusted by Child-Pugh score: p = 0.041; adjusted by MELD score: p = 0.045) and competing risk analyses (p = 0.024), and E/A ≤ 0.8 was significantly associated with higher cumulative incidence of death in Kaplan-Meier (p = 0.023) and Nelson-Aalen cumulative risk curves (p = 0.024). Other echocardiography-related parameters were not significantly associated with further decompensation or death. CONCLUSION: RVD and E/A may be considered for the prognostic assessment of decompensated cirrhosis.

BACKGROUND: Liaoning score has been developed and validated to predict the risk of esophageal varices in liver cirrhosis. This study aimed to further modify the Liaoning score by combining clinical and laboratory parameters to predict the long-term outcome of cirrhotic patients. METHODS: First, 474 cirrhotic patients were retrospectively enrolled from Shenyang, China as the training cohort. Independent predictors for death were identified by competing risk analyses, and then a new prognostic model, called as modified Liaoning score, was developed. Its performance was externally validated at three centers from Fuzhou, China (n = 1944), Jinan, China (n = 485), and São Paulo, Brazil (n = 221). RESULTS: Age, total bilirubin (TBIL), albumin (ALB), serum creatinine (SCr), and Liaoning score were independently associated with death in the training cohort. Modified Liaoning score = 0.159×Liaoning score + 0.010×TBIL(µmol/L)+0.029×age(years)+0.011×SCr(µmol/L)-0.037×ALB(g/L). The area under curve of modified Liaoning score was 0.714 (95%CI = 0.655-0.773), which was higher than that of Child-Pugh score (0.707, 95%CI = 0.645-0.770), MELD score (0.687, 95%CI = 0.623-0.751), and Liaoning score (0.583, 95%CI = 0.513-0.654). A modified Liaoning score of ≥ 1.296 suggested a higher cumulative incidence of death in liver cirrhosis (p < 0.001). Modified Liaoning score still had the highest prognostic performance in Chinese and Brazilian validation cohorts. CONCLUSIONS: Modified Liaoning score can be considered for predicting the long-term outcome of cirrhotic patients.

Liver diseases cause a significant burden on public health worldwide. In spite of great advances during recent years, there are still many challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases. During recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely used for the diagnosis, risk stratification, and prognostic prediction of various diseases based on clinical datasets and medical images. Accumulative studies have shown its performance for diagnosing patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and liver fibrosis and assessing their severity, and for predicting treatment response and recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma, outcomes of liver transplantation recipients, and risk of drug-induced liver injury. Herein, we aim to comprehensively summarize the current evidence regarding diagnostic, prognostic, and/or therapeutic role of AI in these common liver diseases.

A 55-year-old male swallowed fish bone accidentally and subsequently developed retrosternal pain. He underwent chest computed tomography at his local hospital on October 23, 2023, showing esophageal foreign body with suspected esophageal rupture. One day later, he underwent endoscopy at our department, showing a fish bone penetrated into the esophageal wall. After consultation with cardiothoracic surgeons, endoscopy-guided removal of this foreign body was performed under anesthesia. An esophageal ulcer with a length of 2cm was left with overflowing air bubbles, and was closed by three metal clips. Two days later, retrosternal pain disappeared. A tube was intubated to duodenal distal segment under endoscopy, via which enteral nutritional suspension was given. Then, he was discharged.
