Cost‐Effectiveness of Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration Versus Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in Emergency Stone Management

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Among 337 patients undergoing emergency management of common bile duct stones, laparoscopic common bile duct exploration was associated with lower healthcare costs, fewer procedures and shorter hospital stays than ERCP‐based management, supporting single‐stage surgical management as a safe and cost‐effective treatment strategy.

Extended Double Plasma Molecular Adsorption Sessions and Bilirubin Clearance: A Case Report

Hemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The double plasma molecular adsorption system is an artificial‐liver treatment model combining the use of ion exchange resins and neutral microporous resins to remove toxins such as inflammatory cytokines without consuming large amounts of plasma and albumin. Given the relatively expensive consumables needed for Bilirubin adsorption,

Anti‐Integrin αvβ6 Autoantibodies as Diagnostic and Monitoring Biomarkers for Pediatric‐Onset Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Levels of anti‐integrin αvβ6 antibodies were significantly higher in pediatric‐onset primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) than in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and may reflect disease activity. These antibodies may serve as a novel biomarker for distinguishing PSC from AIH and for monitoring disease progression.
