Health disparities in chronic liver disease

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract The syndemic of hazardous alcohol consumption, opioid use, and obesity has led to important changes in liver disease epidemiology that have exacerbated health disparities. Health disparities occur when plausibly avoidable health differences are experienced by socially disadvantaged populations.

Interleukin‐39 is a Prognostic Biomarker and Therapy Target for Sepsis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sepsis triggers a significant increase in IL‐39 production, with circulating levels markedly elevated and positively correlated with disease severity and poor clinical prognosis in sepsis patients. Mechanistically, macrophage‐derived IL‐39 activates the GP130 signaling pathway via a ligand‐receptor interaction, thereby fueling the pro‐inflammatory ...

Serum bile acids as a prognostic biomarker in biliary atresia following Kasai portoenterostomy

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Serum bile acid levels predict outcomes in patients with biliary atresia who achieve normalized bilirubin levels after Kasai portoenterostomy. Abstract Background and Aims In biliary atresia, serum bilirubin is commonly used to predict outcomes after Kasai portoenterostomy (KP).

Risk factors for small bowel bleeding in an overt gastrointestinal bleeding presentation after negative upper and lower endoscopy.

PLoS ONE, 2019
IntroductionA small bowel source is suspected when evaluation of overt gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding with upper and lower endoscopy is negative. Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) is the recommended next diagnostic test for small bowel bleeding sources ...

Push enteroscopy in management of suspected small bowel diseases: Is it still needed?

Journal of Digestive Endoscopy, 2014
Background and Study Aims: Small intestinal lesions still represent a challenge in diagnosis and treatment. The detection of small bowel lesions has been difficult due to limited visualization of the small bowel by esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and ...

ROS‐Responsive Nanoparticle Delivery of Dexmedetomidine Protects the Gut Vascular Barrier After Intestinal Ischemia/Reperfusion via the HDAC‐H3K27ac‐TCF4 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A low dose of dexmedetomidine, delivered by ROS‐responsive nanoparticles, preferentially accumulates in the ischemic intestine and restores gut vascular barrier integrity after ischemia/reperfusion injury. This nanoparticle‐based strategy prevents bacterial translocation and liver damage without cardiorespiratory side effects, working through HDAC ...

SAT1‐Induced Spermidine Depletion Potentiates Food Allergy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Spermidine depletion, driven by upregulated spermidine/spermine N1‐acetyltransferase (SAT1), potentiates food allergy by promoting mast cell degranulation through autophagy suppression. SAT1 physically interacts with the long noncoding RNA Cdk19os to inhibit Atg5 and Atg7, disrupting autophagic flux.
