GERD affects 18.1-27.8% of North Americans, rising to ~ 50% under less strict criteria. Effective management of GERD is critical to improving patients' quality of life. Traditional treatments range from lifestyle modifications and pharmacological interventions to surgical approaches like laparoscopic anti-reflux surgery (LARS). Patients with erosive esophagitis receive a near 70-80% rate of \"complete\" symptom relief by 4 weeks using PPIs, in contrast to patients with non-erosive reflux disease (NERD), who demonstrate an intermediate response on the order of 50-60%. However, the invasiveness and associated side effects of surgical options have spurred the development of endoscopic techniques, including anti-reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF). This review evaluates ARMS and TIF as therapeutic interventions for GERD, focusing on their risks, benefits, outcomes, and complications. ARMS is noted for shorter procedure times and fewer complications, particularly dysphagia and bleeding, making it an efficient choice for symptom control. TIF, while associated with a higher recurrence and reoperation rate, demonstrates superior long-term efficacy in medication reduction and sustained quality-of-life improvements, especially in patients without prior anti-reflux surgeries. Emerging advancements in endoscopic technologies, such as improved suturing techniques and refinements in mucosal resection, hold promise for reducing recurrence rates and enhancing procedural durability. The choice between ARMS and TIF should be tailored to individual patient needs, taking into account GERD severity, comorbidities, and surgical history. Both procedures exemplify significant advancements in minimally invasive GERD management, and ongoing innovations in endoscopic technologies are expected to further refine their safety and effectiveness.

A Chi-square test was used to evaluate the association betweena high FFP:PRBC ratio and 24-hour and 30-day mortality. The Mann-Whitney test was used to analyze secondary outcomes.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Among 300 patients with a mean age of 40.5 years, 231 (76.7%) were male, and 69 (22.9%) were female. The high FFP:PRBC ratio group showed significantly higher rates of 24-hour mortality (11.5%), 30-day mortality (45.9%), and ICU admission (<i>P</i> < 0.001). However, the mean duration of mechanical ventilation in the high ratio group was 3.36 ± 2.85 days, indicating that some patients in this group still required ventilatory support.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This study demonstrates that a high FFP:PRBC ratio (>1:1.5) is associated with reduced 24-hour and 30-day mortality rates among trauma patients with massive hemorrhage. However, the need for mechanical ventilation in some high-ratio patients suggests potential trade-offs that warrant further investigation. Additional research is needed to explore the potential adverse effects of high FFP:PRBC ratios and to optimize transfusion strategies in trauma care.</p>","PeriodicalId":8025,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medicine and Surgery","volume":"87 6","pages":"3183-3188"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12140757/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144246032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
