Perioperative utilization of JAK inhibitors in Perianal Fistulizing Crohn's disease

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract With the recent approval of small molecule drugs such as upadacitinib in adult inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), their utilization is becoming more common; however, there is limited data on perioperative risks or optimal timing of cessation and resumption to mitigate flares. Current recommendations suggest holding these medications for 14 days

Comparative efficacy of Pirfenidone and Meloxicam on early radiotherapy-induced anal sphincter dysfunction in rats

Frontiers in Pharmacology
BackgroundRadiation therapy, integral to pelvic tumor management, impacts over half of all cancer patients and may lead to anal sphincter dysfunction due to inflammatory responses and chronic fibrotic remodeling in irradiated tissues.

Feasibility and clinical value of pyloric functional luminal imaging probe in an infant

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Pyloric dysfunction is becoming increasingly recognized as a cause of gastroparesis, but its diagnostic and therapeutic role in infants has not been well studied. Identification and treatment of pyloric dysfunction with functional luminal imaging probe (FLIP) technology or use of pyloric inhibition are not routinely used in infants due to lack

Pediatric vascular compression of the esophagus: Endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe as a complement to imaging and endoscopy

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Vascular anomalies can cause extrinsic esophageal compression, leading to dysphagia or feeding difficulties in children. Diagnosis typically relies on imaging and endoscopy, which may under‐ or overestimate functional narrowing. Endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe (EndoFLIP) provides luminal parameters in real‐time, but its ...

A Multimodal Ultrasound Approach Combining Transperineal and Transrectal Shear Wave Elastography for Early Prediction of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of a novel multimodal approach combining transperineal ultrasound (TPUS), transrectal dual‐plane ultrasound, and shear wave elastography (SWE) in predicting stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods A total of 70 women diagnosed with SUI and 110 healthy controls were included.
