Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding Caused by Rupture of Pancreatic Pseudoaneurysms

Case Reports in Critical Care, 2023
Pseudoaneurysm rupture in patients with pancreatitis is a rare but fatal etiology of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. We report a rare case of upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a patient who presented simultaneously with two pseudoaneurysms, a potential

Plasma urea:creatinine ratio as a biomarker of gastrointestinal bleeding in dogs with anaemia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2023
Background Gastrointestinal bleeding is a cause of anaemia in dogs. A reliable, non‐invasive biomarker to differentiate gastrointestinal bleeding from other causes of anaemia would be advantageous to direct clinical decisions in anaemic patients.

Bioinspired Smart Nanogels for Rapid Blue Laser‐Activated Hemostasis in Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Waxberry‐inspired branched‐silica nanogel can swiftly stop bleeding upon blue laser endoscopy for gastrointestinal hemostasis in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum of mini‐pigs. Abstract Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a critical condition that requires rapid and effective intervention.

A Wireless Soft Optical Blood Sensor for Colonoscopy

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This works presents an “add‐on” wireless soft optical blood sensor for the traditional colonoscopy. It can reliably detect bleeding behind the colonoscope's distal tip camera via optical absorption, without optical fibers, and wirelessly transmit data to the processor.

MCT1‐mediated Lactate Shuttle to Mitochondria Governs Macrophage Polarization and Modulates Glucose Homeostasis by Affecting β Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the transport of lactate to the mitochondria is of critical importance in determining the functions of macrophages by altering mitochondrial respiration. In macrophages, this lactate transport mechanism regulates glucose homeostasis by influencing the functions of insulin‐secreting cells in the pancreatic islets.

MTCH2 Deficiency Promotes E2F4/TFRC‐Mediated Ferroptosis and Sensitizes Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis to Sorafenib

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies MTCH2 as a crucial regulator of ferroptosis in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. High expression of MTCH2 is correlated with poor prognosis in CRC patients. Furthermore, MTCH2 depletion induces ferroptosis to suppress CRC liver metastasis via the E2F4/TFRC axis and sensitizes tumors to sorafenib treatment, supporting MTCH2 as a
