Subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum and pneumoperitoneum after upper gastrointestinal endoscopy [PDF]

, 2020
Upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopies are performed for several reasons. The overuse of endoscopy has negative effects on the quality of healthcare and pressurises endoscopy services. It also results in the complications.

ADVANCING CAPSULE ENDOSCOPY IN THE EXAMINATION OF THE UPPER GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT [PDF]

, 2020
Advancements in capsule endoscopy technology allow it to image the upper gastrointestinal tract. Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGD) is the gold standard examination, but it is often poorly tolerated and requires sedative premedication.

Current Techniques for Treating Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors in the Upper Gastrointestinal Tract [PDF]

, 2016
Most gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) arise from the proper muscle layer of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract and have a low malignant potential. They are sometimes accompanied by symptoms, but in most cases are detected by chance.

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.
