Potentially Preventable Mortality After Elective Colorectal Cancer Surgery: Insights From a National Surgical Mortality Audit

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a significant contributor to preventable deaths worldwide. The assessment of potentially avoidable mortality following elective CRC surgery has yet to be reported. The Australian and New Zealand Audit of Surgical Mortality (ANZASM) seeks to peer‐review all deaths associated with surgical care.

Clinical Trial: Predicting Response to Iron Therapy in Patients With Active Inflammatory Bowel Disease Using Hepcidin and Functional Iron Indices: A Multicentre Randomised Trial

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Hepcidin levels predict response to iron therapy and support route selection for iron therapy in patients with active inflammatory bowel disease: higher levels favour IV iron, while lower levels indicate likely oral response. Ferritin‐based indices, particularly transferrin/log10(ferritin) and sTfR/log10(ferritin), offer reliable alternatives. ABSTRACT

Anti‐Integrin αvβ6 Autoantibodies as Diagnostic and Monitoring Biomarkers for Pediatric‐Onset Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Levels of anti‐integrin αvβ6 antibodies were significantly higher in pediatric‐onset primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) than in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and may reflect disease activity. These antibodies may serve as a novel biomarker for distinguishing PSC from AIH and for monitoring disease progression.
