Potential benefits of one-time gastroscopy in searching for precancerous conditions.
Precancerous conditions for esophageal (EA) and gastric adenocarcinoma (GA) are Barrett's esophagus (BE) and atrophic gastritis (AG), respectively. Their surveillance is crucial for the detection of early lesions. ⋯ One‑time EGD in search for precancerous conditions could be potentially applicable in individuals between 40 and 69 years of age.

Indirect insulin resistance markers are associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in type 1 diabetes.
Insulin resistance (IR) in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is associated with increased insulin dose requirements, poor glycemic control, and elevated risk of chronic complications. IR increases lipid synthesis and hepatic lipid content. Disruption in hepatic lipid accumulation and export leads to liver steatosis resulting in nonalcoholic liver disease (NAFLD). ⋯ In T1DM, NAFLD is more likely to be found in individuals with lower insulin sensitivity.
