Endoscopic small bowel therapies for type 2 diabetes
Abstract Type 2 diabetes is a global epidemic despite current medical treatments. Many patients are not responsive to medications, and patients with obesity are hesitant about bariatric surgery. Studies investigating the metabolic effects of Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass have increasingly demonstrated that the duodenum plays a key role in the ...

Cirrhosis is frequently accompanied by varying degrees of lipid profile abnormalities. This study confirms that these profiles are differentially affected by disease etiology and progressively worsen—with significant reductions in TC, HDL‐C, and LDL‐C—as liver disease severity increases. TIPS improves lipid profiles, particularly by increasing HDL‐C in

ABSTRACT Linerixibat, an ileal bile acid transporter (IBAT) inhibitor, is being evaluated for the treatment of pruritus in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). Diarrhea is commonly reported with this drug class as IBAT inhibition redirects bile acids (BA) to the colon.

Farnesoid X receptor prevents hyperuricemia via activating ATP‐binding cassette subfamily G member 2
Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) activation reduces serum uric acid levels by upregulating the intestinal urate transporter ATP‐binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2). These findings uncover a novel metabolic pathway for urate excretion and suggest that FXR agonists (e.g., obeticholic acid), represent a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment

Biliary anastomotic strictures (BAS) after liver transplant (LT) are a significant contributor to post‐transplant morbidity. Although surgical technique has been proposed as a risk factor, accurate evaluation of technique has been limited by inherent bias in conventional definitions for BAS.

When Enzymes Mislead: Assessing the Value of MRCP in Suspected Choledocholithiasis
ABSTRACT Background The diagnosis of choledocholithiasis (CDL) requires balancing timely intervention against the risks of unnecessary invasive procedures. Although liver function tests (LFTs) are widely used for risk stratification, their static values and short‐term trends remain poorly defined in predicting persistent common bile duct stones.

Characterisation and Prognostic Implication of Cholestasis After Burn Injury
In 532 burn ICU patients, we quantified trajectories of cholestasis markers and validated burn‐associated cholestasis definitions. Bilirubin dynamics, particularly hyperbilirubinemia ≥ 2× ULN within 14 days, independently predicted excess in‐hospital and overall mortality beyond burn and critical‐illness severity, identifying a high‐risk subgroup after
