Background Efforts to reduce mortality from esophageal adenocarcinoma (EA) have focused on screening and surveillance of Barrett’s esophagus (BE). Aims We sought to determine the frequency of prior diagnosis of BE in patients with EA and to evaluate the impact of a prior BE diagnosis on mortality in EA patients. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of patients diagnosed with EA in the...
Background/AimsEndoscopic screening for high‐risk gastro‐oesophageal varices (GOV) is recommended for compensated cirrhotic patients with transient elastography identifying increasing numbers of patients with cirrhosis without portal hypertension. Using liver stiffness measurement (LSM) ± platelet count, the aim was to develop a simple clinical rule to exclude the presence of high‐risk GOV in patients...
