GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease: Bridging Hepatic and Cardiovascular Outcomes

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
Endogenous GLP‐1 and exogenous GLP‐1 RAs activate GLP‐1R‐expressing vagal afferents in the portal vein, projecting to the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS). This input engages brainstem–hypothalamic circuits that regulate metabolic homeostasis. Hypothalamic efferent vagal output to the liver suppresses lipogenesis, enhances triglyceride export, and ...

Gastric antral vascular ectasia: A rare etiology of gastrointestinal bleeding in children

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastrointestinal bleeding is relatively common in children. While most patients present with mild bleeding, gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening cause. GAVE is typically associated with chronic conditions and more common in adults.
