DOI: 10.1002/adma.202405290
Abstract: In an emergency, nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB), endoscopic hemostasis is considered the gold standard intervention. However, current endoscopic hemostasis is very challenging to manage bleeding in large‐diameter or deep lesions highly prone to rebleeding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ccd.29411
Abstract: Ischemic and bleeding events portend equivalently poor prognosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Risk factors for these untoward events largely overlap limiting the “decoupling” of bleeding and ischemic risk. While individual patient risk scores inform… read more here.
