Efficacy and Safety of Multihole Partially Covered Self‐Expandable Metal Stents for Distal Malignant Biliary Obstruction: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Covered self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) are the standard for managing unresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction (DMBO), as they prolong the time to recurrent biliary obstruction (TRBO). However, fully covered SEMS (FCSEMS) increases the risk of cholecystitis and pancreatitis.

Acidosis is associated with lower insulin sensitivity and incident type 2 diabetes in indigenous Americans: A prospective cohort study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 27, Issue 11, Page 6440-6448, November 2025.
Abstract Aim Whether markers of acid accumulation [decreased plasma bicarbonate, increased anion gap (AG) and corrected anion gap (CAG)] are associated with insulin sensitivity and alter diabetes risk is unclear. We aimed to examine the association of these markers with the gold‐standard measure of insulin sensitivity and incident type 2 diabetes ...
