Central Pancreatectomy with Roux-en-Y Pancreaticojejunal Anastomosis—Report of Two Cases [PDF]
Abstract Background Central pancreatectomy (CP), a partial resection of the pancreas, is indicated for the excision of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the pancreas, when located at the neck or the proximal body. Specifically, CP is preferable in functional NET and in nonfunctional sized 1 to 2 cm or/with proliferation marker Ki67 < 20 ...

Efficacy and Safety of Pharmacological, Endoscopic, and Surgical Treatments for Obesity: A GRADE-Based Network Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective This review compared antiobesity strategies—obesity management medications (OMM), endoscopic bariatric procedures (EBP), and metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS)—with lifestyle intervention, placebo, or no therapy (LSI/Pbo/NT). Methods This network meta‐analysis included randomized clinical trials comparing OMM, EBP, and MBS versus LSI ...
