A targeted antiferromagnetic nanoprobe for ultra‐sensitive magnetic resonance imaging detection of sub‐millimeter esophageal tumors

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
We developed a cyclo‐RGD peptide‐conjugated antiferromagnetic nanoparticle (RANP) as a targeted T1 contrast agent. Under 9 T MRI conditions, RANP exhibited an r1 value of 1.88 mM−1 s−1 and a low r2/r1 ratio of 1.84, enabling the detection of esophageal tumors as small as 0.8 mm in vivo. Abstract Early, non‐invasive detection of esophageal cancer at sub‐

Surrogate measure of gut blood flow via superior mesenteric circulation on ultrasound in adults who underwent esophagectomy: A descriptive cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Early enteral nutrition is recommended for critically ill patients. However, feeding an ischemic gastrointestinal tract with enteral nutrition may lead to gut necrosis. Although gut tolerance of enteral nutrition is assessed by various symptoms, none of them provide conclusive evidence of gut ischemia. We investigated the blood flow

Influence of dietary intake and eating patterns on reactive hypoglycemic events in patients postesophagectomy: A prospective observational study using continuous glucose monitoring

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Esophagectomy causes anatomical changes that can lead to rapid food transit and reactive hypoglycemia (RH). Patients are advised on eating patterns postesophagectomy to prevent RH, but its true incidence and the impact of dietary recommendations remain under‐researched.
