A Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Disease: Comprehensive Theory and Evidence for Mechanisms of Action

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

A case of hemobilia caused by a pseudoaneurysm resulting in obstructive cholangitis in a patient who underwent plastic stent placement for pancreatic cancer (with video)

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Hemobilia, or hemorrhage within the biliary system, is an uncommon cause of stent obstruction associated with bile duct strictures that are rarely observed with plastic stents. Reports of a pseudoaneurysm as a cause of hemobilia after plastic stent placement are also rare.

Role of Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Gastroenterostomy for Benign Gastric Outlet Obstruction

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Benign gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) often results from intrinsic conditions like peptic strictures, caustic‐induced stricture, and surgical anastomoses, and extrinsic conditions like pancreatitis, hematoma, and superior mesenteric artery syndrome.

Endoscopic Ultrasonography‐guided Variceal Therapy as Salvage Treatment for Rebleeding From Duodenal Varices Following Balloon‐occluded Retrograde Transvenous Obliteration

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Duodenal varices, though rare, are potentially life‐threatening complications of portal hypertension. Management is challenging when balloon‐occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) fails to achieve complete obliteration. Endoscopic ultrasonography‐guided variceal therapy (EUS‐VT) is effective for gastric varices, but reports of ...

A Case of Worsened Refractory Ascites due to Prednisolone Administration for Stricture Prevention after Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Extensive Early Esophageal Cancer: Case Report and Literature Review

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used for early esophageal cancer, even in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC). Corticosteroids, administered orally or by local injection, are often used to prevent post‐ESD esophageal stricture. However, their safety in patients with decompensated LC and refractory ascites remains unclear. A man

Distal Bile Duct Metastasis From Rectal Cancer: The Diagnostic Contribution of Intraductal Ultrasonography

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT A 49‐year‐old male developed liver dysfunction during chemotherapy for rectal cancer located in the rectosigmoid region. Although magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography initially indicated sclerosing cholangitis, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and intraductal ultrasonography revealed multiple non‐contiguous intraductal ...

Ischemic Colitis Secondary to Mesenteric Arteriovenous Malformation: A Rare Cause of Bowel Ischemia—Case Report and Literature Review

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Ischemic colitis is the most common form of intestinal ischemia, typically caused by a temporary reduction in blood flow to the colon. It is often linked to atherosclerosis, low blood pressure, or embolism. We present a case of ischemic colitis with atypical location due to an inferior mesenteric arteriovenous malformation (inferior mesenteric
