International Consensus Recommendations on the Management of Patients With Nonvariceal Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Alan N. Barkun,Marc Bardou,Ernst J. Kuipers,Joseph J.Y. Sung,Richard H. Hunt,Myriam Martel,Paul Sinclair +6 more
TL;DR: Recommendations emphasize early risk stratification, by using validated prognostic scales, and early endoscopy, whereas data support attempts to dislodge clots with hemostatic, pharmacologic, or combination treatment of the underlying stigmata.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity and colorectal cancer
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that obesity is associated with a 30-70% increased risk of colon cancer in men, whereas the association is less consistent in women, although the risk appears lower.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Canadian Registry on Nonvariceal Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding and Endoscopy (RUGBE): Endoscopic hemostasis and proton pump inhibition are associated with improved outcomes in a real-life setting.

TL;DR: Analysis of patients endoscoped for nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding at 18 community and tertiary care institutions between 1999 and 2002 appears to confirm the protective role of endoscopic therapy in patients with high-risk stigmata, and suggest that acute use of PPIs may be associated with a reduction of rebleeding in all patients, and lower mortality in patientsWith high- Risk Stigmata.
