Gastric duplication cyst causing hypergastrinemia in an infant
Abstract Gastric duplication cysts are rare congenital anomalies, with fewer than 10% occurring in the stomach. We report a 14‐month‐old girl presenting with failure to thrive, recurrent emesis, hematemesis, and severe duodenitis with ulceration. Laboratory evaluation revealed marked hypergastrinemia (1781 pg/mL), and initial imaging was unrevealing ...

Adults with Fontan circulation (n = 20) and matched controls underwent body composition, frailty testing, CPET, and NICaS hemodynamics. Plasma short‐chain fatty acids were quantified by LC–MS/MS. Fontan patients had higher straight and branched SCFAs, correlating with lower muscle mass, greater frailty, reduced VO2max, and worse resting/postexercise ...
