INTRODUCTION Background/ rationale Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB) is a common emergency. The incidence varies from 50 to 110 per 100,000 population. In the majority of patients with AUGIB, bleeding is self-limiting and often has stopped spontaneously on presentation. Traditionally
Lung cancer is the most common cancer, accounting for 20% of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In 2015, an estimated 610,200 patients (22 per cent of cancer-related deaths) died of lung cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer ((NSCLC)) accounts for 80% to 85% of lung cancer. Most patients are locally
Biliary anastomotic stricture is a common complication of after end-to-end biliary anastomosis. Magnetic recanalization is a promising way to establish connection of biliary tract after stenosis or completed obstruction. This study is designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of magnetic
Gastric variceal bleeding is a severe condition associated with a high mortality. Bleeding from varices bleeding will be defined as the occurrence of hematemesis and/or melena requiring >2 U of blood or a decrease of 2 gm/dl of hemoglobin if no blood transfusion is given, with the confirmed
Our study is to retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 1606 patients of acute myocardial infarction who need dual- antiplatelet after PCI.The diagnostic criteria for upper gastrointestinal bleeding is: 1.symptoms: digestive discomfort, such as abdominal pain, nausea, belching, acid reflux,
After 40 years of considering gastrointestinal bleeding as upper or lower and largely ignoring the small intestine, there is accumulating evidence that the conventional approach to the assessment of non-hematemesis gastrointestinal bleeding (NHGIB) could be improved by early deployment of a video
Background Current guidelines recommend an intravenous bolus dose of a proton pump inhibitor(PPI) followed by continuous PPI infusion after endoscopic therapy in patients with high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding. However, intermittent PPI have not been inferior to continuous PPI infusion regimens in
This is a prospective observational study. After IRB approval, consecutive patient with upper GI bleeding and undergoing urgent endoscopy will be enrolled to the study over 24 months period. Data pull will be requested from Parkland Office of Research Administration (ORA) regarding eligible subjects

There has not been much studies conducted to address this issue however most of the recommendations are made in view of preventing any complications following procedures. Stiegmann and Goff 4 were the first to employ EVL to treat esophageal varices. They did not mention any specific restriction of
Endoscopic therapy has improved outcomes to patients with acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Acid suppression therapy as an adjunct to endoscopic therapy further reduces recurrent bleeding and interventions. There remains a small subgroup of patients who continue to bleed or
Out of 220 patients with chronic HCV who had undergone splenectomy due to hypersplenism in the period extending from May 2014 until August 2016; 36 participants (16.4%) were selected. They were presented with acute PVT. Also, the investigators enrolled 4 patients who were presented with PVT due to
Introduction
Coagulation dysfunction is frequent in patients with severe sepsis and it is associated with an increase risk of mortality. During sepsis platelets number usually decreases and their function is reduced and this mechanism is sustained by an inflammatory induced coagulopathy. Several
Patients admitted to hospital due to hematemesis and/or melena with endoscopic finding of ulcer and/or erosion in the ventricle and/or duodenum are eligible for inclusion in the BLUE study after an informed consent has been obtained. The gastroscopy must be performed within 72 hours after admission.
