Brief interventions for alcohol misuse among people living with HIV: a meta-analysis

Abhishek Ghosh, Geetesh K. Singh, Nidhi Yadav, Pranshu Singh, Sanjana Kathiravan

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of brief interventions on alcohol and HIV outcomes in PLHIV with alcohol misuse. The results showed that compared to the control group, brief interventions significantly reduced daily alcohol consumption and heavy drinking days within 3-6 months post-intervention. Brief interventions also decreased the odds of mortality in 6-12 months. However, there was no effect on alcohol risk scores, transition to harmful alcohol use, adherence to Anti-Retroviral Therapy, and viral suppression.

The Impact of Duodenal Mucosal Vulnerability in the Development of Epigastric Pain Syndrome in Functional Dyspepsia

Tomoki Okata, Kiyotaka Asanuma, Kenichiro Nakagawa, Waku Hatta, Tomoyuki Koike, Akira Imatani, Atsushi Masamune

Summary: An unidentified cause of functional dyspepsia (FD) is closely associated with medication resistance. Acid suppression is a traditional and preferential method for treating FD, but its efficacy varies between epigastric pain syndrome (EPS) and postprandial syndrome (PDS). This study found that the duodenal mucosal transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) in EPS patients decreased when exposed to acidic solutions, even under weak acidic conditions. The decrease in TEER was correlated with the severity of epigastric pain. Additionally, EPS patients had an increase in mast cells and plasma cells expressing Ig-E in the duodenal mucosa, suggesting that duodenal mucosal vulnerability to acid may contribute to the development of EPS.
