Long‐anchoring Stent Method as a Rescue Technique for Early Dysfunction of Covered Self‐Expandable Metal Stents in Distal Malignant Biliary Obstruction: A Retrospective Case Series

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objective Covered self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) are widely used for treating distal malignant biliary obstruction (MBO). Severe SEMS angulation can cause stent dysfunction. Placement of a long double‐pigtail plastic stent inside the SEMS (the “long‐anchoring stent method”) may straighten the angulated SEMS, thereby achieving effective ...

Clinical Outcomes of Double Half‐Pigtail Versus Straight Plastic Stents for Endoscopic Biliary Drainage of Malignant Distal Biliary Obstruction

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives The clinical performance of double half‐pigtail plastic stents (DHPs) for malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) remains unclear. We compared DHPs with straight plastic stents (STs) regarding the timing, incidence, and causes of recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO). Methods This single‐center retrospective cohort study evaluated

Feasibility of a Deep‐Learning Model for Objective Visualization‐Quality Assessment During Cholangioscopy‐Guided Lithotripsy: A Proof‐of‐Concept Study

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT During peroral cholangioscopy‐guided electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL), stone fragmentation obscures the visual field (the “snowstorm effect”), and visualization quality has been assessed only subjectively. This proof‐of‐concept study explored the feasibility of a deep‐learning method for objectively quantifying visualization quality during ...

Shedding light on the environmental efficiency of the public light service: minimising light pollution through the global Malmquist–Luenberger index

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 528-551, January 2027.
Abstract The search for evidence in public management and the implementation of good management by public bodies is becoming increasingly important, and the principles of effectiveness and efficiency should be reinforced. Therefore, this paper aims to analyse the change in efficiency in the provision of public lighting services by local governments ...

Electrolysis‐treated biosolids enhance wheat growth and alter soil health parameters

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Biosolid‐based fertilizers can benefit agriculture by supporting circular nutrient economies, reducing fertilizer costs, and minimizing environmental impacts compared to inorganic fertilizers. A 125‐day greenhouse experiment was conducted to assess the effects of electrolysis‐treated biosolids on wheat (Triticum aestivum) growth and soil ...
