    Check out @ASGEendoscopy @ESGE_news Guideline on Endoscopic Bariatric and Metabolic Therapies (EBMTs)! Based on meta-analyses/@USGRADEnet, we suggest 👉EBMTs+LM for BMI >=30 or >=27 w comorbidity 👉Intragastric balloon or endoscopic gastric remodeling+LM tinyurl.com/yt72y7k5

    Excited to share our new publication showing benefits of bariatric endoscopy on NAFLD (thank you @AmCollegeGastro)! Endoscopic gastric plication is associated with regression of hepatic fibrosis, i.e. improvement in ALT, NFS, FIB-4 and LSM on fibroscan. shorturl.at/pBHSU

    Our new favorite - Gastroplasty with Endoscopic Myotomy (GEM) - The merge of third space & bariatric endoscopy - Pylorus-sparing antral myotomy + ESG to further delay gastric emptying - Satisfying technically & clinically - 14.8% TWL at 3 months (all achieving >10% TWL)

    Today is the 10th year anniversary of the first-in-human ESG using the Overstitch by Drs. Chris Thompson and Rob Hawes. As a medical student scribing suture patterns in the room, didn’t realize how many lives this would touch. Happy to pass this on to our next generation #obesity

    Excited to share our new publication on combination therapy of TORe + anti-obesity medication (AOM) for weight regain (thank you @GIE_Journal)! TORe + AOM is superior to either therapy alone and yields similar weight loss as surgical revision of RYGB. shorturl.at/zAKZ4

    Hard to say goodbye to @RobTrasolini (bariatric fellow '22-'23) & @Jarshah4 (advanced fellow '22-'23/bariatric fellow '21-'22).. What a joy observing their growing appreciation for every pretty sleeve, ESD-TORe, SIS, etc. Endo is not the same without you, especially after 6 pm!
