Validation of the Safe Application of Tokyo Guideline 2018 (TG18) Severity Grading and Treatment Algorithm in Super‐Elderly Patients Aged 85 and Over With Acute Cholecystitis: A Study in the Japanese Tertiary Care Hospital

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background With population aging and extended healthy life expectancy, the management of acute cholecystitis (AC) in patients aged ≥ 85 years has evolved. However, the Tokyo Guidelines 2018 (TG18) for AC provide no specific risk assessment criteria for this population.

Ethanol Induced Disordering of Pancreatic Acinar Cell Endoplasmic Reticulum: An ER Stress/Defective Unfolded Protein Response Model. [PDF]

, 2018
Background & aimsHeavy alcohol drinking is associated with pancreatitis, whereas moderate intake lowers the risk. Mice fed ethanol long term show no pancreas damage unless adaptive/protective responses mediating proteostasis are disrupted. Pancreatic

Outcomes of Pancreas‐Sparing Total Duodenectomy for Severe Duodenal Polyposis in Patients With Familial Adenomatous Polyposis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Spigelman stage IV duodenal polyposis (SP‐stage IV DP) is associated with high duodenal cancer risk in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). This study evaluated the surgical and oncological outcomes of pancreas‐sparing total duodenectomy (PSTD) as a surgical prophylaxis for severe duodenal polyposis in FAP.

Low-Grade Inflammation in the Association between Mild-to-Moderate Hypertriglyceridemia and Risk of Acute Pancreatitis: A Study of More Than 115000 Individuals from the General Population.

Clinical Chemistry, 2019
BACKGROUND How mild-to-moderate hypertriglyceridemia (2-10 mmol/L; 177-886 mg/dL) potentially causes acute pancreatitis is unknown; however, cellular studies indicate that inflammation might be a driver of disease progression.
