A Phase 1 trial of SOR102, a first-in-class oral bispecific antibody targeting TNF and IL-23, demonstrates favorable safety and preliminary clinical activity in patients with ulcerative colitis, suggesting a potential shift toward localized
A double-blind RCT in Chile demonstrates that a 14-day optimized bismuth quadruple therapy achieves a 95% eradication rate for Helicobacter pylori, significantly outperforming standard triple therapy without increasing the burden of adverse
A 2025 Cochrane update finds probiotics may halve the relative risk of C. difficile-associated diarrhea in antibiotic-treated patients (ARR 1.6%, NNT 65) but evidence is low certainty and applicability varies with baseline risk.
A Cochrane review of nine RCTs (829 patients) found low‑certainty signals that intraperitoneal chemotherapy (mainly HIPEC) may improve overall survival in high‑risk and metastatic gastric cancer, but evidence is very uncertain due to bias,
Integrated analysis shows a 2013 NEN classification change inflated EOCRC counts in the youngest adults, while independent molecular studies reveal distinct hypermutated and non‑hypermutated EOCRC subtypes with higher MSI/TMB and pathway-sp
Two recent multicenter studies provide condition-specific growth charts for children with Alagille syndrome and show that ileal bile acid transporter inhibition with odevixibat reduces pruritus and serum bile acids — reshaping growth assess
Proton pump inhibitor use, particularly potent ALDH1A1-activating PPIs, is associated with worse survival in newly diagnosed glioblastoma, highlighting the need for cautious use and further mechanistic research.
A large single‑center retrospective review found zero hemorrhagic complications after midline ultrasound‑guided paracentesis versus 60 events after lateral approaches (0/230 vs 60/4,283; p=0.03), suggesting the midline (linea alba) approach
Phase 1/2 data show oral glecirasib has single-agent activity (ORR 23%) in KRASG12C colorectal cancer; adding cetuximab raises ORR to 50% with manageable toxicity, supporting further randomized testing and earlier-line combination strategie
A multicenter Chinese study developed and validated a real-time nomogram that predicts sepsis in acute gastrointestinal bleeding (AGIB) using clinical and laboratory variables; the tool showed strong discrimination (AUCs 0.827–0.884), good
The multicentre open-label SHINE-1 phase 2 trial found that mirikizumab produced clinically meaningful induction and maintenance responses in children with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis, with an acceptable safety profile over 52 wee
The NO-CUT phase 2 trial shows that total neoadjuvant therapy (CAPOX-based TNT) followed by non-operative management for clinical complete responders achieved high 30‑month distant relapse‑free survival (95%) and enabled organ preservation
A 2025 bayesian meta-analysis of 14 RCTs (n=1,322) found shorter or no antibiotic prophylaxis after upper GI bleeding in cirrhosis was highly likely to be noninferior for mortality, though it increased reported bacterial infections. Study l
This review synthesizes evidence on rising cirrhosis incidence in Sweden, highlighting marked socioeconomic disparities particularly in ALD- and MASLD-related cirrhosis, with broader implications across high-income countries for targeted pr
EVEREST-HP demonstrates that rifasutenizol-based triple therapy offers non-inferior H. pylori eradication with improved tolerability compared to bismuth plus clarithromycin triple therapy in treatment-naive Chinese patients.
This review evaluates the IBD-BOOST digital cognitive behavioural self-management intervention’s design, trial outcomes, process evaluation, and clinical implications for managing fatigue, pain, and faecal incontinence in IBD.
A target-trial emulation of 4,476 matched T2DM patients with early MASLD found GLP-1RA use was associated with a 25% lower hazard of progression to high-risk FIB‑4 versus DPP‑4i (HR 0.75); no difference was seen for hard liver outcomes.
A BMJ systematic review and network meta‑analysis of 60 studies (4,633 patients) finds doublet chemotherapy combined with anti‑EGFR/BRAF therapy offers the best first‑line overall survival for advanced BRAF‑mutant colorectal cancer; anti‑EG
This article synthesizes current understanding of type 3c diabetes (T3cDM) caused by chronic pancreatitis—covering pathophysiology (islet loss, exocrine insufficiency, altered incretin and hepatic/peripheral insulin sensitivity), diagnostic
AI-driven analysis identifies muscle volume as a robust predictor of survival in NSCLC, highlights metformin-modulated adipose effects, and elucidates molecular links to the obesity paradox, informing personalized prognosis beyond BMI.
