Observational Study
In recent years, there has been a global trend of aging, which has resulted in significant changes to the burden of gastritis and duodenitis (GD). Using the global burden of disease (GBD) database spanning 1990 to 2019, we evaluated the temporal trends of age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR), age-standardized death rates (ASDR), and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (AS-DALYs) for GD using estimated annual percentage changes (EAPC). Additionally, we examined the burden of GD across various strata, including social demographic index (SDI), age, and sex. Finally, the risk factors linked to the incidence and mortality of GD, utilizing Pearson correlation analysis. In 2019, there were 31 million GD patients globally, a notable increase of 12 million from 1990, while the ASIR, ASDR, and AS-DALYs for GD all showed a decrease. Correlation analysis showed a significant negative relationship between ASIR and SDI. Factors like hand hygiene and vitamin A deficiency had significant positive correlations with ASIR and ASDR in 2019. Over the past thirty years, the burden of GD has increased alongside global population aging. Future efforts should focus on exploring prevention for GD, with special attention to the elderly population in low SDI regions.

The primary function of the duodenum is to undertake chemical digestion by ensuring that the partially digested food received from the stomach is well-mixed with the enzymes and chemicals secreted into it. However, little is known about the anatomical variations in the shape of the duodenum within humans, and thus the effect of duodenum shape on the flow and mixing occurring within the lumen has not been studied. In this work, a methodology for analyzing shape variations in the normal duodenal anatomy has been developed and applied to a publicly available dataset of abdominal CT images. This method does not require the placement of landmarks as it is based on the underlying tubular 'C' shape of the duodenum. The average duodenal length and radius of this dataset (consisting of 34 subjects) were 212.8 ± 38 mm and 10.8 ± 2.5 mm respectively. A Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was conducted on a sample of 34 duodenums after normalizing their lengths and the first five principal components were found to contribute to 82 % of the total variation. The first shape component (accounting for 42 % of overall variation) consisted of variations in the radius along the duodenum with no deformations normal to the central plane, and the subsequent shape modes consisted of twists in the centerline either in and out of the central plane, and radial variations at either the inlet or outlet. This is the first study to analyze shape variations in the human duodenum and the results can be combined with flow modeling to analyze the effect of shape on the flow and mixing occurring within the duodenum.Clinical relevance- The methods developed in this study can be used by clinicians to diagnose abnormalities in an individual's duodenum shape.

An 83-year-old male presented to the Emergency Department with long lasting epigastric discomfort, weight loss and diarrhea. Physical exam and basic laboratory tests showed no remarkable findings. Upper endoscopy revealed a sessile lesion (Paris 0-IIa) in the anterior wall of the duodenal bulb, with smooth surface and slightly ulcerated at the top.

Review
This pictorial review aims to illustrate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and presentation patterns of anatomical variations and various benign and malignant pathologies of the duodenum, including sphincter contraction, major papilla variation, prominent papilla, diverticulum, annular pancreas, duplication cysts, choledochocele, duodenal wall thickening secondary to acute pancreatitis, postbulbar stenosis, celiac disease, fistula, choledochoduodenostomy, external compression, polyps, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, ampullary carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. MRI is a useful imaging tool for demonstrating duodenal pathology and its anatomic relationships with adjacent organs, which is critical for establishing correct diagnosis and planning appropriate treatment, especially for surgery.

Duodenal ablation improves glycaemic control and weight loss, so it has been applied using hydrothermal catheters in obese and type 2 diabetes patients, indicating similar mechanisms and therapeutic effects as bariatric surgeries. Endoscopic photodynamic therapy is an innovative procedure that easily accessible to endocrine or gastrointestinal organs, so it is critical for the sprayed photosensitizer (PS) to long-term interact with target tissues for enhancing its effects. Surfactant-like PS was more stable in a wide range of pH and 2.8-fold more retained in the duodenum at 1 h than hydrophilic PS due to its amphiphilic property. Endoscopic duodenal ablation using surfactant-like PS was performed in high fat diet induced rat models, demonstrating body weight loss, enhanced insulin sensitivity, and modulation of incretin hormones. Locoregional ablation of duodenum could affect the profiles of overall intestinal cells secreting meal-stimulated hormones and further the systemic glucose and lipid metabolism, regarding gut-brain axis. Our strategy suggests a potential for a treatment of minimally invasive bariatric and metabolic therapy if accompanied by detailed clinical trials.

Review
The duodenal epithelium plays a pivotal role in the uptake and transport of dietary nutrients while simultaneously acting as physical and biochemical barrier to protect against harmful bacteria and antigens. In the case of functional dyspepsia (FD), the duodenum is of particular interest, due to observed local immune involvement and the proximity to the stomach and exposure to acidopeptic secretions. Recent observations in FD pathophysiology, including those reported by Beeckmans et al in this issue of the journal, have identified a loss of barrier function in the duodenal epithelium, an altered duodenal microbiome and alterations in intestinal bile acid pools. Because FD symptoms coincide with food intake and, thus, secretion of bile acids, these findings may indicate loss or imbalance of bile-acid-microbiota-epithelial homeostasis as a process driving FD. Here, we review the evidence linking these observations to FD symptoms.

The duodenum is traditionally reached and dissected by an anterior approach. Optimal exposure is achieved via complete hepatic flexure mobilization and kocherization of the duodenum and head of the pancreas, which can be technically challenging and time-consuming, especially in the setting of minimally invasive surgery. On the contrary, an inframesocolic approach provides a ready and neat access to the second and third segments of the duodenum with distinct advantages in terms of exposure and operative time. This video presents the details of our laparoscopic technique of approaching the duodenum via the inframesocolic route, as performed to treat a patient with symptomatic duodenal diverticulum.
