ABSTRACT Objectives The risk of post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) needs to be predicted in order to take adequate preventive measures in individual cases. The aim of this study was to develop a clinical prediction rule for PEP in biliary ERCP for patients with intact papilla.

ABSTRACT Objectives Post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) is an adverse event of ERCP‐related procedures. The present study aimed to evaluate the incidence of PEP in patients with an intact papilla who underwent ERCP for common bile duct stones and identify risk factors and preventive measures for PEP.

Migration of Fish Bones to the Bile Duct Following Hepaticojejunostomy
ABSTRACT Objectives Migration of fish bones into the bile duct is rare, but can cause bile duct stone formation or acute cholangitis. Herein, we examine the characteristics of this phenomenon. Methods This single‐center, retrospective study enrolled patients with a history of fish bone extraction from the bile duct by an endoscopic procedure at our ...

IGFBP4 is a Metric for Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Attenuates Biliary Epithelial Cell Injury
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Immune‐mediated bile duct injury is the primary histological feature of autoimmune cholestatic liver diseases. Macrophages, the most abundant immune cell population in the liver, have been postulated to play a critical role in biliary repair. However, it is unclear whether activated macrophages interact with injured biliary

Crosstalk Between Intratumoral Microbes and Tumor Immunity: Implications for Tumor Therapy
ABSTRACT Background Emerging studies indicate that microbes are present in tumor cells and immune cells. Intratumoral microbiota (ITM) constitute an important component of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and have an important impact on tumor progression and treatment. Objective Through the general elaboration of ITM represented by bacteria and
