This study aimed to retrospectively evaluate patients who met ESPGHAN biopsy-free criteria but were nonetheless diagnosed through biopsy.Materials and methods: Of 180 pediatric patients diagnosed with CD in the authors' department over 5 years, 79 (43.8%) met the ESPGHAN biopsy-free criteria. All patients underwent routine biopsies of the duodenum, bulb, antrum, corpus, and esophagus at diagnosis. Clinical presentations, celiac serology, and endoscopic and histopathological findings were retrospectively analyzed.Results: The mean age at diagnosis was 7.48 ± 4 years (range, 2-17; M/F: 38/41). Presenting symptoms included growth failure (32.9%), abdominal pain (22.8%), constipation (8.9%), diarrhea (7.6%), anemia (6.3%), vomiting (5%), and elevated liver enzymes (1.3%). Fourteen patients (17.7%) were diagnosed via screening; 9 (64.3%) had type 1 diabetes. Endoscopy findings were consistent with CD in 77 patients; 2 had normal results. Non-celiac endoscopic findings were seen in 19 patients. Histopathology confirmed Marsh 3 lesions in 78 patients; 1 had normal findings, with tTG IgA levels normalizing at a 4-month follow-up. The positive predictive value of biopsy-free criteria was 98.7%. Non-celiac findings (in 24 patients) included Helicobacter pylori gastritis (n = 7) and eosinophilic esophagitis (n = 2).Conclusion: The biopsy-free diagnostic approach accurately identifies CD in most cases but may miss treatable conditions like eosinophilic esophagitis or H. pylori infection, especially in endemic regions. Misdiagnoses, though rare, highlight the need for careful evaluation in populations with diverse clinical presentations.","PeriodicalId":51205,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144038908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this article is to elucidate the connection between HBV RNA and cirrhosis in patients undergoing nucleos(t)ide analogs (NAs).Materials and methods: This study included 381 patients. Logistic regression was employed to investigate the variables linked to the development of cirrhosis. Propensity score matching was used to correct for confounders.Results: In this cross-sectional study, multivariable logistic regression showed HBV RNA detectability was associated with cirrhosis. Multivariate regression suggests that the variables associated with cirrhosis were: older age, HBV RNA above the lower limit of quantification, shorter duration of treatment, higher level of serum bilirubin, and treatment strategy. Among patients with quantifiable HBV RNA (n = 242), cirrhotic patients exhibit lower median serum HBV RNA titers compared to those with CHB patients. Furthermore, qHBsAg ≤ 3.3 lg IU/mL and qHBV RNA ≤ 3.7 lg copies/mL may be linked to cirrhosis.Conclusion: Nucleos(t)ide analogs treatment may result in varying degrees of decrease in HBV RNA levels. Lower levels of HBV RNA may be linked to the development of cirrhosis.","PeriodicalId":51205,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144031387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In T2DM patients, the level of omentin-1 decreased as the level of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) increased and the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) reduced; the level of irisin decreased as the levels of FPG and fasting insulin (FINS) increased. In MAFLD patients, a lower level of omentin-1 was correlated with a lower level of HDL-C but with a greater waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels; a lower level of irisin was correlated with higher WHR and FINS level. In patients with T2DM coexisting with MAFLD, those with a lower level of omentin-1 were found to have a lower level of HDL-C concurrent with lower WHR and triglyceride level; and those with a lower level of irisin showed lower WHR, FPG and FINS levels.

This study aims to elucidate iron responsive element binding protein 2's (IREB2) role in highfat diet (HFD)-induced NAFLD and the regulatory mechanisms of the TLR4/NF-κB cascade.Materials and methods: Male rats were fed an HFD to induce the NAFLD in vivo model. Changes in body weight and liver tissue weight were measured. Liver tissue damage and hepatic steatosis were monitored by hematoxylin-eosin staining in rats. Fat droplet size of rat liver tissue was detected by oil red O staining kit to evaluate fat deposition. Total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), alanine transaminase (ALT), Aspartate transaminase (AST), fatty acid synthase (FAS, and PPARα were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit and western blot. Interleukin-1-beta (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by ELISA. Finally, glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity were measured by glucose analyzer.Results: IREB2 was highly expressed in the liver tissue of NAFLD rats. The body weight and liver tissue weight of rats with knockdown of IREB2 were lower than those fed HFD, and the liver tissue was severely damaged, serum ALT/AST activity, glucose, TG, and TC levels were increased. In addition, overexpressing IREB2 increased IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α, promoting HFD-induced metabolic disorders, hepatic steatosis, and inflammation. Knocking down IREB2 had the opposite effect. Blocking the TLR4/NF-κB cascade reversed the promoting effect of IREB2 on steatosis and inflammatory response.Conclusion: NAFLD treatment and prevention could benefit from IREB2, which may be closely related to TLR4/NF-κB signaling in lipid metabolism and glucose tolerance.","PeriodicalId":51205,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143257331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
