Mycobacterial Infection of the Gallbladder Masquerading as Gallbladder Cancer with a False Positive Pet Scan

Case Reports in Medicine, 2013
Isolated mycobacterial infection of gall bladder is an extremely rare entity. Only anecdotal reports are evident in the literature. A preoperative diagnosis of mycobacterial infection of gallbladder is therefore very difficult.

Arsenite methyltransferase 3 is required for mitochondrial function and hepatic lipid metabolism

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
AS3MT is a protein that helps the body process arsenic, a naturally occurring toxin found in water and soil. We discovered it also helps cells make and use energy properly. Without AS3MT, cells' mitochondria do not work well, leading to fatty liver and reduced activity. Increasing AS3MT in liver cells restores energy and protects against arsenic damage,

Periodontitis and Chronic Conditions in Older Adults: A Scoping Review and Evidence Map of Systematic Reviews

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Periodontitis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory condition that frequently co‐occurs with systemic chronic diseases. Although older adults experience a high burden of both periodontitis and chronic conditions, the extent to which age‐specific evidence has been synthesised remains unclear.

Indications for extrahepatic bile duct resection due to perineural invasion in patients with gallbladder cancer

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2019
Background The indications for extrahepatic bile duct (EHBD) resection remain a major controversy in the surgical management of patients with gallbladder cancer. On the other hand, perineural invasion (PNI) was reported as an important factor in patients

Comparison of Uncovered and Covered Biliary SEMS for the Salvage of Obstructed SEMS: A Multicenter Retrospective Propensity Score–Weighted Study

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
In patients undergoing secondary SEMS placement after initial uncovered stent failure, fully covered and uncovered SEMSs showed comparable patency, survival, and safety. However, mechanisms of recurrent biliary obstruction differed by stent type, with tumor ingrowth in uncovered SEMSs and sludge or food impaction in fully covered SEMSs.

GLP‐1 receptor agonists and serious adverse events: Evidence, uncertainty and clinical implications

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists provide benefits in weight reduction, glycaemic control in Type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular and renal outcomes. Their widespread use has given rise to concerns regarding rare but potentially serious adverse events.

Microbiome and Metabolomics in Obesity: Advances in Understanding and Interventions Across the Lifespan

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obesity arises from intertwined and reciprocal diet‐microbiome‐host pathways that reshape energy balance, insulin sensitivity, and inflammation. This review synthesizes mechanistic links between microbial functions and metabolic control, charts lifestyle‐related lifecourse dynamics from birth to older age, examines how GLP‐1‐based therapies ...

Phase I/II Prospective Study on Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Hepaticogastrostomy as Primary Drainage for Unresectable Malignant Hilar Biliary Obstruction

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Various drainage methods have been used for unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO). However, controlling cholangitis and obstructive jaundice is still challenging. We performed a phase I/II study of endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) as primary drainage for MHBO.
