Jejunal Diverticulosis as a Rare Cause of Severe Obscure Gastrointestinal Bleeding in an Elderly Patient: A Case Report. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Jejunal diverticulosis is a rare cause of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB) that can present with life‐threatening hemorrhage. We report a 69‐year‐old male with recurrent melena, severe anemia, and hemodynamic instability requiring multiple transfusions.

Prepackaged Low-Residue Diet "Clear-Through" Reduces the Required Volume of Polyethylene Glycol Solution for Colonoscopy Preparation: An Exploratory Randomized Controlled Study. [PDF]

DEN Open
ABSTRACT Objectives Large volumes of polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution reduce patient acceptance of colonoscopy. A prepackaged low‐residue diet (PLRD; Clear‐Through) may improve bowel cleansing and allow further PEG reduction. This exploratory randomized study evaluated whether PLRD permits decreased PEG with ascorbic acid (PEG‐Asc) volume while ...
