Chronic GLP-1 receptor activation by exendin-4 induces expansion of pancreatic duct glands in rats and accelerates formation of dysplastic lesions and chronic pancreatitis in the Kras(G12D) mouse model. [PDF]
, 2012 Pancreatic duct glands (PDGs) have been hypothesized to give rise to pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN). Treatment with the glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 analog, exendin-4, for 12 weeks induced the expansion of PDGs with mucinous metaplasia and

Endoscopic transgastric pancreatic fistula anastomosis as treatment for a refractory pancreatic duct leak after distal pancreatectomy [PDF]
, 2016 A 45-year-old man underwent distal pancreatectomy for chronic pancreatitis. Over the ensuing 2 years he developed recurrent pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) from pancreatic duct leakage at the resection site.

Length correction of 2D discontinuities or perforations at large wavelengths and for linear acoustics [PDF]
Acta Acustica united with Acustica, 104(2), 2018, pp. 243-250 (8), 2018 This work focuses on the length correction due to radiation effect of a duct discontinuity or at the surface of a perforated plate in the linear acoustic domain and at large wavelengths. Two results are obtained from the comparison of models used in the literature for different geometries of duct discontinuities or perforations.

Segmentation for Classification of Screening Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This work presents comprehensive results to detect in the early stage the pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), a group of endocrine tumors arising in the pancreas, which are the second common type of pancreatic cancer, by checking the abdominal CT scans.
